Good to see a bundle of you at the Expo (and apologies to anyone who
lurked around the user group stand and that I didn't recognise - having
looked at the photos there are at least four people I accidentally
ignored :-( )


Heh. You did realise that was us lurking nearby while you studiously
spoke to a couple of people, didn't you? We suddenly got all shy, and
kept urging each other to go up to you and say 'You are Graham Lee and I
claim my five pounds'. :-)
It was pretty sad! He was looking pretty non-interruptible though, so we
tried, really we did. Unfortunately the clackety lure led us away...


Sorry, yes. I was engrossed in a discussion of the finer points of my employability.

We did wonder if ucsm could have half of your stand next year, put some comfy seating in and steal your potential punters?

We also think that Sara's company ought to pony up for the meal next year given the amount of free support they've had. :-)

Perhaps we can sell "guest of honour" meal tickets at 50 squid each for next year's meal for MDs of companies that have had support from the froup during the year. For that, you get to sit next to Peter C.[1][2] and have your photo taken by Bella[3] and have nice comments made about you by us on Fotopic. During the meal, Peter will re-assure you that using Macintosh computers for business is a good decision and that support will continue for the next year, in between telling you about the time he once met Brezhnev's wife on the Moscow underground.

Regards,

[1] May be time-limited to one-course only, depending on numbers
[2] and subject to his remaining non-gaga for another year.
[3] That's pretty much unavoidable anyway.
