Some very fond memories and everyone managed to keep me all cheery and happy despite there being a recent family bereavment which was the reason why I had panda eyes on some nights and wandered off for a few mins peace and quiet :)

Awwww I'm sorry to hear that :( I did notice, but I didn't want to ask what was up in case you got more upset *big hugs* Hope everything's OK!

Still missing everyone, still utterly localised (nearly fell asleep at a meeting with a supplier today) and still peeling :( boo!

My Auntie died last Thursday and then this morning I found out my Nan passed away :( ... it's all a bit much at the moment but I'll be fine , I have my Desmo comforting me and cuddling me :)

Lots of trips down the M4 for me :eek:

At least you have someone there for you, and plenty of family around you to help you through it. I'm glad we all managed to keep you happy for the weekend anyway. Just keep your chin up :)
 
Sorry to hear your sad news piggy :(

WHen the pigmo wedding does happen, it'll be a wonderful day, and I'm sure that who are lucky enough to be invited will say that it was the best meet ever :)

Will it be the pigmo or the tigball who walk up the aisle first, and will one of us be the first to have an ocuk baby? If so, who will it be? The future is bright, the future is

uuuuuuuuuuuullllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!11!

:D

I'll have Megan shouting that at random strangers by the end of the week, lol
 
Piggymon, I too will offer my condolences on your double loss. Glad to hear that the OcUK mob was able to help you take your mind off things and hopefully can do the same again this weekend.

As I haven't offered my thanks yet, thankyou to MB and H for their usual organising skill. Thankyou in particular to MB for helping convince me that I should go to the meet and that I'd be OK (I was very, very nervous about going and I took a lot of convincing).

Thanks also to MB's parents for putting up with us lot. Hope we didn't keep them awke too much with the UUUUULLAAAAAHH and Bohemian Rhapsody at 2AM at top volume. :eek:

Thanks to Garp for getting me there and back.

And thanks to everyone for making it such an enjoyable meet, again. Roll on the next one. :D

So hands up, who thought I was a lot older than I am? And who really did think I batted for the other side? :eek:

Well.. I thought you were older than you were :p, didn't realise I had over 4 years on you, well.. right up until you started talking about what you're studying at Uni. That kind of gave it away.

As for batting for the other side, I kinda ignored those comments, uncertain as to the truth in them and not about to put my foot right in it by saying something stupid.

edit: Oh and by the way, one of the earliest things I looked up when I got home was the chords and lyrics to "American Pie". Apparently I didn't sound that bad but I was getting the chords wrong more often than I was getting them right!! I was pretty certain we'd missed a verse, and that last verse we sang had to be missing something, so here you go:

And there we were all in one place,
a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candle
stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend
And as I watched him on the stage, my hands were clenched in fists of rage
No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died, he was singin'

(chorus)

I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away
I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music wouldn't play
But in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost
They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,
And they were singin'


I must say though, kudos to Gilly for remembering as many verses as he did! :eek:

Like I just said on MSN, early 20s. But don't worry I know you don't bat for the other side :p

I know a couple of people thought I looked older too :o
