Wish I could attend fellers, but being on a student budget and facing the busiest time of the year in terms of my workload, it's a no-go for me unfortunately. Hope to make the summer GTG though! Hope you all have a great time

Yep, the wife and I will be making our way out there as soon as the tennis matches are over at the O2.

I have your number Dan, so will either call or text when we get there (does that work for you? )

See you guys then. Can't wait.

Eric remind me to tell you about the "textel" call & the "skip lorry wind up" over our fourth or fifth beverages tomorrow!!

& by the way......

"Works on the line" mean Kerry & I've gotta go into Southend then turn round & come back into town so we probably won't be there 'til 5-ish at the earliest but I'll text you en-route with an ETA.


Seeyou (& hopefully some of the others?!? ) at The Dickens mate....

Okay, I will try to remember... But I usually get abit fuzzy after about the third one

No probs mate. Do keep in touch and hope to see everyone tomorrow.

(looks like there are going to be 2 good sessions tomorrow for me at the O2... Hope Murray doesn't win.. )
