[Simon.James]

I WENT UP TO RUGBY FROM CARDIFF LAST WEEK VIA SAT NAV WHEN I GOT TO JUNCTION 5 OF THE M6 (ONE OF THE TURN OFFS FOR THE NEC) THERE ARE DREADFUL ROADWORKS THE SAT NAV WENT MENTAL AND SENT ME ROUND SPAGHETTI JUNCTION 3 TIMES BEFORE I REALISED IT WAS TAKING THE P*SS!.

I SHOULD HAVE BEEN GETTING OFF AT JUNCTION 2 WASTED AN HOUR, WENT AND BOUGHT A MAP IN THE END, WHEN PAST SPAGHETTI JUNCTION IT PICKED UP THE CORRECT GPRS AGAIN

NOT SURE IF IT WAS A SAT NAV THING, A SPAGHETTI JUNCTION WELL KNOWN PROBLEM OR ROADWORK CONFUSION!

UNLIKE ME A VALLEYS COMMANDO UP IN THE HILLS, I EXPECT MOST OF YOU KNOW THE WAY AROUND THE MIDLANDS ANYWAY!

It came a week to early for me unfortunately. I dont leave my full time job until Friday.

[Chris Wool]

i hear there is a lot of 24 hr tummy bugs about 😉

[Simon.James]

Want to come, but a bit skint at the moment, college also starts again on Tuesday (Photographing People) part off a 2 year HND Course through Cardiff University. I have also got my first order off a national energy supplier to do this week (Put a lot of dead time into trying to getting a big customer on board which paid off in a letter this week saying we are now on their approved suppliers list! and here’s your first order)

so I am really stuffed for time this week I have been the last 3 years and to be honest i only really find it interesting if we are looking for kit, which we arent at the moment.

I was looking forward to meeting a few faces from the Forum,but maybe next year.

I hope you all have a good time anyway.

Im in a funny situation. The company I work for are very clever and make it clear that if you are sick then your mates will have to work overtime.

Oil companies eh? lol

[Steve Underhill]

By any chance does anyone need a space in a room,
unexpected circumstances have arisen, and basically I cant lose 2 days out of this week.
The room is a twin and Peter Mindham is one half booked in I was the other one, the room has already been paid for and the money taken from my credit card so if anyone needs a single let me know, we can sort out payment after.
If I get no takers I will try and make it as its just a waste of money else, but if theres anyone wanted to go and couldnt get a room nows your chance
I will need to know by tomorrow afternoon at latest
Cheers
Steve

[John Wilson]

wednesday & thursday for me too 😀

[Phill Fenton]

quote Steve Underhill:

Do we get a discount for having to put up with Peters snoring 😕

[Steve Underhill]

Yes.

If I cant sort it I will still go but with the 2 jobs that just came in I can ill afford to lose 2 days.
lets wait and see what happens.

[Steve Underhill]

Never mind Its sorted now.

[John Wilson]

[Steve Underhill]

Roy,
PM me your mobile number as I dont fancy walking a train full of people trying to match your avatar to your actual face, as Im sure you wont be wearing a santa outfit OR a small child.

[Neil Herbert]

Me and my partner are going on the Thursday! Look for the Camper-van in the car park. We are going Max & Paddy style. So where’s this Bar and something to do with tables 😀

[Lynn Normington]

Neil thats wednesday 🙄

Lynn

[Neil Herbert]

Can’t make Wednesday unfortunately so will have to find a bar (with a car park to stay in)

[David Rowland]

Your confusing me neil… if you go thursday and stay over night, security will be chucking you out lol… Sign UK is tue/wed/thu.

[Martin Cole]

Look forward to seeing all you lovely people 😕

[John Childs]

[Martin Cole]

quote Robert Lambie:

I’ve told you once and I’m not telling you again 😀 😀

He’s on those breezers already 😀

[Neil Herbert]

Sorry, it was meant that I will be leaving when getting kicked out on thursday but instead of going home (to the Isle of Wight) we have a coaching course in Swindon on Sat & Sun so a waste of time going home! That why I need to find a bar with a car park to stay in! Sorry for the confusement lol

[David Lowery]

Wednesday….only going to stop their marketing department from emailing me every day for what seems weeks and they have even phoned me to make sure I have my badge and top ask how i’m getting there and that it costs £8 for the car park and yes, i have told them that my inside leg measurement is 31" 🙄

[Warren Beard]

Well looks like I will now be going on Thursday 😕 A potentially large client has asked me to do a van for them tomorrow as the van leaves for the North in the afternoon and they want it signed before it leaves, I can’t pass up this opportunity as there is plenty more work to get from them so it’s a small price to pay.

At least I will still make it 😛

Cheers
