Attempting to load the van, but the barrier won't go up so I can not get in.

Mrs Ralph wants to come back next year so you will get to meet her then, Nigel, if not before.
The Brotheres Pirrie, Bogatan, Tony and myself are still at the Hilton. The Hub represents!

I had a really great time and it made me feel a bit soppy to be honest. Thanks everyone, I have never been so glad to be bundled into the back of a van

But I didn't get to meet Mrs Ralph. You did get two photos of her though.

Well... at this point you might just as well stay and wait for next year.

TFN did happen didn't it and I was there?
The weekend flew by so quickly as always and just felt surreal being back again around people, but also so fast that I am mentally struggling to process that I was there.

This time last week, delayed by a monster headache, I had got to the Toy-Fu stall to man my position and was having a great time. Alternators going like hot cakes!

Nope. I was staying with Dave and Grace in Newcastle so we left early afternoon. Train strikes and travel chaos meant I wasn't staying for my extra two days.
