Re: and for those who missed it...

Just glad to hear that every one else was as pissed or nearly as much as me.
Quite frightend of reading the posts and learning what really happened.

Will seek out, Southern / Northern interpreter, interfaced to specialist analyst in slured speech for next meeting.

If it helps, I cant remember what any one else said either.

All welcome on Meekatharras summer voyages as hopfull recompence for any tragic sucumstances that may or may not have arisen. Or quite understand if you wish to stay well well away.

Nearly got thrown out of hotel for mumbling something about cig machine to night porter and disregarding requests for room number, but seemed to wake up some how in bed.

Even Tuts has not yet reported on unfortunate incidents, but this is no guide as she usually stores them up for a year or two before divulging. Therefore nulifying any evidence to the contrary.

Re: he means \"phew\"

He has just realised that taking his own camera means that the one person who won't be embarrassed by the pics is himself. Now, who else had a camera? - oh yes, Barry....

Re: Improvements for #2

1. Need a proper recipe for punch

2. Possibly a DJ, (no not a blimmin suit, to do the records i mean) to be approved

3. I need some exterior heater things

erm, nothing else wrong really: Can't complain about a party in which final guests leave after 3am, then some others come back the next morning and eventually pack it in at 2 in the afternoon the following day.

Oh and (seriously) well done and thanx for everyone being so careful (yes, I am being serious) and nothing busted at all. V experienced skippers they all must be, no cig burns, not a drop of anythig spilled and nobody left anything behind (apart from that PeterG with his blimmin windchime)

but I hope that doesn\'t mean..

we can't come to the next one - I'll even take the windchime away! (unless you've already given it to someone you don't like)

BTW: it was given to all employees of our esteemed company not just me along with some other frightful stuff which we apparently send to 'customers' as free gifts!!

Re: but I hope that doesn\'t mean..

Re: Peter\'s been \'doctored\'

Not Peters fault but the gremlins seem to have crept in to the html page generation and a few pics 'got lost'.
All fixed now and have also reduced picture file sizes to speed up vewing time.
Sorry Peter...........
Still trying to decide if I wish I'd been there tho'............................

Many thanks to Barry, Matt and Diana from me and Steve too. Excellent night was had by all. Sorry it's taken us so long to post, but it's the first time I've logged on - honest!

We took loads of pics on our digicam too. Haven't even looked at them yet, but if Boatone wouldn't mind obliging, I'll mail them to him as soon as I've downloaded them.

Thanks again - great to meet you all.

Shields to maximum...

Actually it's a good shot I thought. We could measure the intake of booze by tracking the lenght of LongJohns tie as it slowly slips. Exactly where is your hand in the dancing shot? Ducks.
