So for anyone interested our agenda for the evening went :

a) beer
b) more beer
c) curry
d) conversations that looped in and out of Rockbox related stuff.

Quote
Um - there was probably more but I was definitely a bit squiffy when I left and it escapes me now.

You left out:

b2) more beer
b3) more beer
b4) "I'll just have a soft drink this round."  "I got you another beer any way!"

Let's see, what else?

We discovered that one cannot open an iPod 4G with a guitar pick.  Especially after a couple of beers.

We discovered that these forums can be highly entertaining when read aloud from GodEater's mobile phone after a few rounds.  :)

We discovered that the proprietor of a certain Indian restaurant on The Strand is not keen on providing a glass of ice when the can of Coke that he has served is already, in his opinion, cold enough.

All-in-all, it was a great time.  Thanks again to GodEater for putting it together and for linuxstb for making the executive decision on what turned out to be a fine pub.

It was a 3G actually but I'm just being picky.

See what I did there? I crack myself up :)

I can just imagine that. All the n00bish DOOM posts must become much less irritating under the influence  ;)

Nice to see the photo. You always form a vague mental image of people after reading enough posts from them and it's nice to see that image absolutely shredded after seeing what they are really like ;D

* bascule wonders how likely a North-East Scotland social meet would be...  :-\

There are 4 shirts and cups in the mail sent to GodEater, that should arrive at 23rd or 24th. So hopefully you get them for this next meet or you'll just have to do a third! ;-)

I *think* I can make the 24th, will know for sure on Tuesday.

Any more volunteers? The more the merrier!  We can have a drink-off for the limited supply of T-shirts...
