For all those attending, I've just heard that the banquet (which I never attend anyway) is on the Saturday afternoon.

Am I the only person who didn't know this?

So, who's up for a curry on the Saturday night?

Probably not. But he does smoke dope (allegedly). At least aaccording to the T-shirt I've seen.

False alarm: The banquet will be held Saturday evening -- around 7.00 pm.

I'm still currying - no banquet for me.

Sadly I can't make it this year, but some folks from Abaddon will be there in my stead. I have a wedding to attend.

I hope to be going to FCon if I can manage it. It will be nice to put some names to faces. I've probably seen several of you there before, but I'm the quiet one in the corner too shy to speak to anyone, so you won't know me!

I'm gutted I won't be able to come. But if anyone feels a strange mysterious prescence behind them at Fcon, that'll probably be me.

Gary, are you feeling OK? Something tells me you're not yourself this morning.

Zed -You must have read my mind!

Only this morning as I was going to work, I said to Soozy "If we are having a curry at Fcon we oughta book a table upfront as last year it was hard to find a table together in the same restaurant for everyone who wanted to go".

Waddya think folks?

Do we want to block book table(s) upfront to avoid disappointment?

Y'know, reading this, I reckon the BFS folks would do better if they put on a curry rather than a banquet each year!

Only proper Indian Restaurants can do proper curries. Not hotels!

I think I mentioned the booking idea to gcw & Soozy last time we met up - I think it's a must after last year's crocodile, although it's going to be a nightmare to organise...

We tried that with 16 people last year, in a city centre Indian restaurant at 8pm on a saturday evening...

We missed Joel and Zed on the ruby last year, partly because JLP's mobile was switched off! We need a more concerted effort this year, methinks...

Yes, I believe we should nominate Soozy to get this one together...Its the sort of thing she excels at.

She's off work at the mo' getting over the car accident so she's got plenty of time to sort it ...:-)

I'l have words.....
