[marked-for-expiry]-- Dub, Sep 09 2010 This message had been endorsed by [Jinbish] http://www.youtube....rGa70tVYVKo#t=0m29s [Jinbish, Sep 09 2010] LOST http://s836.photobu...52_4c1b9729bd_b.jpg [po, Sep 10 2010] here? http://www.harveyni.../output/Page128.asp [po, Sep 10 2010] looks like it might be busy http://www.thisislo...tdoor-free-party.dobeautiful day though - anyone awake yet? [po, Sep 12 2010] Count me in.
{Although not next Tues night, nor following Friday->Monday}-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 Can't do Friday [today] but should be more flexible in the next couple of weeks. Will be watching this with anticipation. My prefs would be Central London - maybe Southbank?-- zen_tom, Sep 10 2010 central or south bank would be good-- hippo, Sep 10 2010 south bank always a favourite - sunday preferred.-- po, Sep 10 2010 South bank is good for me. Sunday is also good.-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 Sunday would be nice - (just checking - this Sunday?)-- zen_tom, Sep 10 2010 Yep - could do.-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 Sounds exciting - I'm looking forward to asking [hippo] about his recent adventures in Cat5 cabling, [JinBish] about his recent foray South of the Border, [Dub] about spaghetti hoops, and [po] about recent and general pigeon activities.-- zen_tom, Sep 10 2010 pretty soon now someone will suggest a date and a location for this…-- hippo, Sep 10 2010 Sunday 12th. Oxo Tower (Bar). 14.00h.
How's that for starters?-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 :) [po], Does [LOST] know how to find the place? I'm not so sure I do-- Dub, Sep 10 2010 Easy - head for Blackfriars Bridge, and then aim for the big tower that has OXO written on it - can't go wrong (ha - I'll probably end-up phoning you on the day to ask for directions!)-- zen_tom, Sep 10 2010 It was the first name out the hat (well, 3rd, but had better reviewers). I don't know how to get there, bug I saw the big OXO tower on my way home today...-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 not sure I'd trust LOST's directional abilities - but perhaps he/she prefers wandsworth common to finding its way back to the loft...-- po, Sep 10 2010 Not tonight! Nooooo! Spent the week commuting to Reading (dump), and teaching this weekend, so no, sorry.-- AbsintheWithoutLeave, Sep 10 2010 there are people you know who are beginning to believe that [AWOL] and [po] are the same person!-- po, Sep 10 2010 Well - we'll just have to do more Halfcons until we disprove the Po-AWOL Jackson theory!-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 [Dub] cannot believe that I have not yet met either you [Jinbish] or AWOL. The one I really want to hug is [salachair], sorry but I want to do the slosh with the beautiful one!-- po, Sep 10 2010 Hey - I know where I am in the pecking order. And you have good taste. The members of the [salachair] clan are all great bods, with the fizziest of chat.
Well - maybe we can find a good excuse to persuade her to venture South. Never know - maybe get a bonus sibling too...
{I've always wanted to do a world H'bakers, past & present tour}-- Jinbish, Sep 10 2010 sorry, you = my lovely [Jinbish]
[Dub] is of course my very best friend in the real world.-- po, Sep 10 2010 {All embarrased,like}[po] Aw! chucks!{AEL} 1/x - There's no-one I'd rather be lost and confused with! - even if I do keep having to try to catch you out, [AWOL]-- Dub, Sep 10 2010 easily arranged!-- po, Sep 10 2010 //I want to do the slosh with the beautiful one//Sadly, I've told you, I won't be there.(We'd better dlete this one before the boss comes by.)-- AbsintheWithoutLeave, Sep 10 2010 Unfortunately, I'm stuck in the woods with a busted leg.I might have to give this one a miss(Or a airlift.)-- skinflaps, Sep 11 2010 Are we still doing this Sun12th at the OXO tower?. I may be able to get up there.-- gnomethang, Sep 11 2010 is it the same busted leg or a different one, flaps.-- po, Sep 11 2010 [skinflaps] If you can get there by any means, I'd get you home (whereever that is!) - Give me a bell!-- Dub, Sep 11 2010 skinny has a busted leg, and I an arm. What's up with us bakers? Who's next and what appendage I venture to guess?-- blissmiss, Sep 11 2010 I'll be there at 2.20... I've just spotted [po]'s link. Looks like I'll have to get the big pointy stick out to cut a swathe through the crowds. Listen out for the screams and cry for "For custard and the Halfbakery!"-- Jinbish, Sep 12 2010 If any straggling bakers are still up for joining us, we're moving on... Not quite sure where. Possibly the 'The Mad Hatter'... I dont have directions:- think of it as an initiative test.-- Jinbish, Sep 12 2010 What a great time! I'm guessing some failed the initiative test. ([po] and [Dub] almost did too, but [JinBish] found us) - [LOST] was good to his name
Menu: Arduino x 1 CCDs x 8 (guess, certainly more than 4) Discussions about business including custard discusions x numerous
Cheers, and don't forget - The first rule of HalfCon is... There is NO first rule for HalfCon, just an advisory note about general hygiene.-- Dub, Sep 12 2010 Ditto great time. Top company. Thanks chaps & chapsesses!
Well done [Dub] for putting out the call. For any that missed it - we'll get you next time!-- Jinbish, Sep 12 2010 //busted ... and I an arm// [blissmiss]
Defending the honor of the 'bakery? Do tell...
(Hope you heal rapidly.)-- csea, Sep 13 2010 Thanks all - it's always a real pleasure to meet up with everyone - good company and chat - I particularly liked the 'Tomato' naming idea for Ian's 'kit-shop'. I got home and realised I was starving - should have nicked one of Jinbish's chips!-- zen_tom, Sep 13 2010 [zen_tom] Yeah, me too-- Dub, Sep 13 2010 [po], yes, it was nice of Boris to put that on for us-- Dub, Sep 14 2010 random, halfbakery
