Hello!

Welcome aboard bro. to a great bunch. We always manage to somehow bring sunshine to someone.

You must mean the singing of "Happy birthday" at midnight, brought a tear to my eyes and still do when I think about it. Thanks all.

Sorry Trout my friend that is not what i am talking about. All i will say is that it was something made of wood that was behind the bar of my B&B that i was at

Welcome aboard I intend to visit Blackpool one day, Liverpool is also on my list of destinations to visit.

I only attended the Sunday evening “meet and greet” session at Oxford but I do remember the friendly camaraderie of like-minded people.
Couldn’t attend the actual conference, the school wouldn’t condone it

There was a conference near Liverpool once as well. Trout Topcat101 and myself had a good few hours in Liverpool checking out the Cavern and having a trip on the Mersey Ferry, a really good day with good people
