Night started with me standing around in SnowHill station looking like no was coming then after at about 7:15 someone turned up! And asked “Is this the 2600?” strange considering I had my 2600 hat as a kind of beacon I guess, it seems to attract strange people. Then the rest turned up and err no one else...where was you all???
Moved onto the pub, I had to do this report again with no pen or paper, having to use my brain, something I don't do a lot anyway. Usual subjects discussed check the list :D
