Group Get-together 2014 that was!

[Lynda]

Hey, you had books! Real live books.

I think I ought to stop going to these 'do's'. I always say the wrong things or make a fool of myself. It's not as if I'm decorative either. :(

[Stuart]

I did - well the cleaner probably has them now! You were great!

[Stuart]

at least you didn't fall over like I did later in the night...

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

Lynda you did neither of those things! AND you brought choccy chuckles

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

Probably on Biggleswade cctv somewhere Stu

[David]

at least you remembered to give your books out Sam. I ended up leaving mine in a drawer in my hotel room!

Like the Gideon bible? Might not be a bad tactic!

[Stuart]

could well be Rosemary - though from what I saw in The Red Lion, I wouldn't be the only one!

Lol! I only remembered because I brought them down before the beer started flowing too quickly.

[Emma]

I had such a wonderful time! Was so good to see you all again and great to meet Rosemary, Maureen, Debbie and Sam for the first time. I vowed to spend more time in the group now that home life is a lot more settled so here I am procrastinating whilst supposed to be studying!!!!

[Stuart]

It was great seeing you too again Em!

I wouldn't wish that on the poor guy!

Yay for procrastination! It's soul food!

Lynda, I was really glad you were there - it was fantastic to meet you. And everyone else. (Except maybe Stuart... :-)

[Patti (baconater)]

Obvisiously I MUST attend the next one, if only to be Stu's prop.

Aw, thanks, Sam. Nice to meet you, too. I could have done with the chance to speak to everyone, individually. Sadly there's never enough time at these affairs. Next time, I'm going to target. lol

[M.T.]

I'm not very professional either. Yoda says "do or do not. There is no try." He's talking bollocks I'm all try and no do phnark.

Cheers

MTM

[Rosemary (grooving with the Picts)]

Professional is overrated, Mary. And I speak from experience here

[Stuart]

I am going to try and be a little more professional maybe on Thursdays

[M.T.]

Stuart, that's the kind of thing I do. Perhaps we should have a #flakeyauthor group! Phnark.

Ummmm

I think we do. ;)

[Stuart]

I was certainly pretty flakey by the time I got home Sunday evening...

Not flakey! Creative!

[Andy]

Looks and sounds like you all had a nifty time. Hopefully they'll be one next year that I can inflict my presence upon you all. I'm still way too noob to be seen outside of a dialogue box at the mo, but like most pests and parasites once I get settled I'm a bugger to get rid of.

[Stuart]

It was great Andy - such good people with so much interesting stuff to say. And then there was me...

[Andy]

Can next year's be fancy dress? We could come as characters from a selected book from one of the group's authors (I bagsy Rosen's saucy granny).

You helped make it a great day, Stuart. (I was only kidding above)

[Stuart]

that's good to know! ;-)

Dammit! I WAS in fancy dress. You don't think I'd go around looking like this from choice, do you? Tcha!

[Simon (Highwayman)]

I'm not sure biggleswade is ready for Stuart in fancy dress
