My mum would argue different.

Anyway, it's a literary reference, not a literal one.

btw.

Had a nice, productive time. Quite apart from the pleasant company, got to speak to a couple of knowledgeable people who were able to give me a more positive perspective on a couple of car issues I've had.

Very glad I came along, and would recommend it to anyone else local who hasn't been.

Sorry, I was unable to attend due to a deluge of workmen fixing my house at last minute. Irritatingly, the last one left about 7:30 so it looks like I could have got there for the sit-down after all.

Anyway, my apologies for withdrawing with no notice to you (I let the pub know this afternoon, but didn't have web access till this last hour or so).

I hope you all had a great time.

Fantastic evening guys! Was really good to see everyone after such a long absence from me being in Leeds. It was also good to finally meet Mrs Fish, although briefly! I do hope you come to the meeting on Tuesday.

Hey John, if you see Tony before Tuesday could you ask him if he is interested in having his car cleaned. Would cost around £30.


Cheers mate.

Thanks everyone for a lovely and very enjoyable evening. Top company, great food and fantastic atmosphere. It was great to see everyone again after what seems far too long and to see and meet some new faces too (not that the old ones are that bad hehe ).

Thanks to all from me and Mrs B too. A great night out, and some good banter (I particularly enjoyed the "pedant competition" with BG

Mrs B enjoyed it so much that she said she might even come to a Tuesday night "once the nice weather is here again".

I was also amused by her saying on the way back to towards Derby - is there a speed limit on on here? (Shame! and her not a petrol head either!)

Wish I'd seen that one, I should think that was impressive..

Have a Good Christmas one and all, see you hopefully in the New Year.

I'm allowed to be Christmassy as I've had some turkey now

Thanks for a nice evening folks.

It was a bit embarrassing being on the top table, hope the short speech wasnt too dire.

Didnt get to talk to so many folks either, so sorry if I missed any of you.

Lisa, next time I get 'air' I will slow right down for 'cross o the hands' in future.

Prof, we must talk Maestros sometime soon
