Hello all,

I hope you are all well! I have been away for a short while on Paternity Leave, we have had a little boy and he has been keeping us busy! I have the 2nd in the diary and thanks to Spud for all the information, looking forward to seeing as many of you there as possible. I have a pal in London, so may bring him along if he is about.

All the best in the meantime and glad to be back on the scene! I've missed it!

Peace.

Manu

Serious answer: I'll just be bringing whichever watch I'm wearing.

Although it's entirely up to the wearer/bringer Id respectfully suggest that we all err on the side of caution especially if we're travelling on tubes/public transport etc.
