Hi All.

**PHOTOS NOW UPLOADED ON FACEBOOK: PLEASE TAG APPROPRIATELY: [link]

First and foremost, I cannot go on without giving my thanks to two wonderful ladies for yesterday: =xxbcxx and =firedance99

Bini: Thank you explicitly for all the stress you've endured, all the tantrums and wobblies you threw, all with the aim of creating a truly awesome devMEET. I really do appreciate it, babe. I know it didn't go exactly to plan. And I know you got incredibly stressed about it, but I sincerely appreciated the effort. I really loved it.

Lydia: thanks for putting up with me over the preceeding week, and then plying me with alcohol. For those curious the confirmed count on alcohol was at least 10 shots of baileys, four shots of blackcurrant sours, and a pint of guinness. Thanks for navigating London with me, and taking care of me for the 5 minutes I was tipsy. Im not so thankful for you stopping me smoking, however.

Creepy AlexAgra: Dude, you went way too far. Too many people didn't appreciate your antics, and it was very wise of you to leave when you did. Even if it was a bit late. I assure you, you will never be at any other devMEET I attend again.

Everyone else: to everyone who came (including but not limited to) @Narfmaster, ~babyhippy123, =TheK, *Richardparson and everyone else, thank you for coming. I know you didn't come to meet me specifically, but I can honestly say it was a pleasure meeting all of you, and I do hope you stay in touch. You can find me on facebook here: [link] . You can also find me on twitter here: [link] and my posterous [link] .

I do have about 160 devmeet photos, but Ive got a full appointment book for the rest of my trip, and will probably start working them on the flights home.

Again, I cannot express how great meeting all of you was, please note me if you want my MSN, and otherwise keep out of trouble.

Take care


=Y

OK, So, I'm travelling intercontinentally again!

This time: It's England.

Thanks to the wonderful advent of the Airbus A380, 2302 hours from now (roughly), I'll be landing at the beloved Heathrow Airport.

Now, thanks to two wonderful ladies (=firedance99 and =xxbcxx), there will be a devMeet! Likely target: London.

To be honest, that's about all I know, because I'm so damned busy working overtime to recover money lost due to fraud earlier this year, and come up with some spending money, to organise such things.

Thanks very much to =firedance99 for organising this for me, she's put a lot of work in behind the scenes. A LOT! (more than I am actually allowed to disclose).

If anyone wants to meet me, this MAY be organizable. Let me know in the unlikely event that you do, we may be able to organise something.

Will have a special mobile number set up for this trip. The number will be released later.

Will be posting up on my twitter the whole way, Every stop along the way there, and back, but please, Dont expect me to update from 36000 feet, im not sure the flight crew would be too happy with me for that.
