Yay, the thread is starting! That is at least something! Now let the photos come! (I guess the others are still together at this hour). Have you not decided to CALL this meet-up something, the London Meet-Ups have so far (almost) all had a name, like the last was called "Sweet and Salty", and the one before... ? Must go and take a look. I can change the title to the new name this one's getting once we all know it. Ha--- can't wait!!!

And wait!
WHO was there?

ANTY?????????????????????????
She does not live precisely next door!

Anty, you WILL be in Germany again in May?

[duncanp]

yup our good old penguin woman was there... afterall she seems to know more about london than we do

yea previous ones were also sweet and salty and revenge of the lens

GOOD!
Yay. How I envy you for the chance to meet ... but May will be here soon - and then! But you'll be in the middle of the school year then, Duncan, eh? Hm... a pity.

The quality of your photos is absolutely amazing, given your age! Wow.
Some of the people pics got posted double, did you realise that?

[duncanp]

nope *edits so no one else can see*


thanks for the comment

[Tangerini]

Yes very nice photos Duncan!
It looks like quite a successful meet-up.

[tempra]

Great shots Duncan! you even got Ferny's super mario cam

We left just after 7 (still in the pub - the Imperial for those who were on previous meets) and I've just sat down with a nice cup of tea.

Right I'm a bit more awake now

Ok another great meetup and yes Anty was there, bit of a shock!! And even Becky made it, sadly Ferny showed just kidding mate.

Anyway the meetup Gods were smiling on me as I had no problems with the trains for once.

Great to see you all again

Looks like you were lucky with the light over the weekend

[tempra]

Right, I'm off to bed, finally downloaded them and rebooted as lightroom was going a bit wonky - here's one to savour.

[Becky]

Hahaha great shots everyone.... off to bed too, absolutely shattered... I'll try and post some tomorrow

Heya, cool new photos! So good to see you all (again)! Seems like I better inform the people of the only pub here they order enough beer before the end of May then............

Ah, and I changed the title to this meet-up's name! Good one!
