Sorry I missed out on the cake and snacks. To busy nattering with Doreen I guess.
What a very delightful evening! I so wish I was able to spend time with everyone there. It was like a whirlwind as the time seemed to fly by. Plus my head was getting pretty overwhelmed by all the Accy names mixed with real names plus those who had real names but no Accy names.
It was great fun watching those brave enough and inventive enough to find uses for the chewing tobacco. I award Cashy the award for the the bravest and most accomplished chewer and UKCowboy for the fine ciggy he rolled with it. Red you failed as badly as me bruv Rindy at the chewing and spitting!
Also, though pretty embarrassing, for those who partook of the tiny cigs
I gave to Momma Mez.
I thank all those who offered and supplied me with the ~5 - 6 pints I guess I drank. I did quite fine with it mostly cause I passed on that Radiator fluid looking stuff that Moonshine gave out.
I found it very sad for those who could have made the Meet but bugged off due to "personal" reasons. I believe everyone could had had a nice time and I missed meeting you.
In the end, I could have gone without Shillagh's "proper Lancashire welcome" as she grabbed my groin as I was leaving. However, she has sincerely apologized and Jen you are forgiven for all to see
. (Maybe it's Moonshiner who should be issueing apologese eh?) In the future, please feel free to pass on your "proper Lancashire welcome" to Rindy or Less. Heck, what are friends for!
Finally, thanks Grego and Mez for the welcome to Accrington Karma.
