London Meet - Part I

Just back, avoided the tapas (how did it go guys?). But suffice to say a lot of beer was drunk, a lot of chess was played, and a good time had by all. Photos were taken by myself, mosquitorespect and Russ. Expect a much bigger update in the future, but I'll be loading a select few up in a moment.

A great bunch of people, and apologies if I do take the piss out of a few in the following pictures.

It's also at this point I wish that I'd a)put the red eye control onto my camera earlier, and b) taken a second photo in more than one case.

Lucky skunk. 🙁 I'm taking a vacation over there this summer, wish we could have another one. And is freddie really 17? 😕

The following photos will suggest why I don't do it for a living.

Angie on the way to victory. Although this photo is a one off for a different reason.

I'm shrinking them now. Much easier for me to load. Colette here on her way to victory (I think, she'd better confirm that one).

Russ is the one doing the choking.

Matt Hortin models his new look.

These are all fantastic pics!

I am officially jealous that I couldn't be there... It looks like a great time!

Do they serve Boddingtons at this place? 😉

And I do confess in a couple of cases this is where I get a bit lost with RHP names/putting them to faces. So please do fill in here for me.

From l-r

Marinakatomb (who got the whole thing started, which we'd all agree was a good thing, so thank-you there), Bambee (the only other shot I have - and those there will know which I mean - is unfortunately rather unflattering 🙁), Colette, Starrman (who took at least one of the photos I'll post now), ? (help), The Slow Pawn, Freddie, ? (help again)

Edit: One of the ? Should be Royal Chicken, the other has Jones somewhere in the name.

Thankfully not.

It's a Young's pub.

Spectacular!
