Ipswich Meet - 3.0
Carol Willis
Well, it happened, in spite of Tap's directions around 40 people made it
to the pre-Clarecraft meet in Ipswich.
I have no hope of detailing everyone who was there - I'll leave that to
one of the people with a portable brain (psion/velo) but there were lots
of us, we filled the beer garden and a fun time was had.
Memorable things from the evening:- Kazoo's and Nose Flutes - Bohemian
Rhapsody will never sound the same again. Cabbage Flag. Michelena's
remarkable talent for humming with someone else's tongue firmly down her
throat. The grin on Dino-lush's face after his encounter with the
hedgehog. Strange chocolate things with peanut butter inside. The
Bellinghman moving the huge mushroom thing.
Various quotes were recorded - much beer was drunk. Various people
ended up staying here at Spring Roll so drinking and talking continued
way into the night. Finishing just in time for the ppintish person to
wake up whoever was nearest the door at 4am when she finally arrived.
The morning has started with surreal conversation and no small amount of
hugging.
All in all 'twas good practice for the weekend ahead - thanks to all who
turned up, especially those who came equipped with chocolate.

That's not a toy!
Actually, I don't what that guy's problem was, he told Alan
he could only light it if it was in the middle of the garden,
then told him off for moving it into the middle of the garden.

Ppint was there? I have to meet her(?), that picture of Vodka
bottles is just too mysterious for me.

If anyone has a scanner I'll send them a copy of the 'aerial'
photos. Hope they came out...

Thank you (I'll interpret that as a compliment).

That's quite a skill... Maybe there's room for her in the proposed kazoo
and nose-flute orchestra.

Don't forget the *copious* amounts of CCCB - for the first time in my life
I found myself having to have a pint so I was safe to drive. Pure genius!
