HWDC Event 1 - Gosport Chain Stitch Massacre

[Giles]

I think it may be a little streakier - good spot…

[Nerkg]

Now I wish I had gotten them.. 
Who am I kidding , I wish I could get every pair.
But I'm in absolute love with my ironheart pronto jawns

A few more photos from the Chain Stitch Massacre.

On the train down.

Not a good sign to see when it's pointing in the direction you're heading!

Is this a new sideline for IHUK?

If Mammon doesn't pay out, then maybe religion will…

Megatron performing delicate surgery on a pair of Megabusters. If these are your pair, then he apologises if one leg is longer than the other!

Ginger Power takes on Unity!

Fortunately there were professionals on hand to do the tricky bits…

The old office is like Aladdin's Cave. Only with less gold and more denim.

The Salvation Army were after used clothes. They'd probably turn their noses up at Liquorice Noose's old pair…

I nearly lost my jacket to Ruedi.

He'll grow into it!

The Alexander Leathers jackets are very nice. Fortunately this one was just a bit too short for me!

[Seul]

Cool pics mate!..

[Graeme]

Thanks Seul.

It was a good day, and Ruedi brought over a stack of Swiss chocolate with him which was appreciated. (I'm now of the opinion that only the Swiss and Belgians should be allowed to produce it.)

Thanks to the Trons and Padmores for organising this.

Glad the event was such a success. It was great to follow the fun online.

big kudos to all the great folks around, great to see you had some fun and that the MBBs managed to find their way in time with some magic, pressure and a lot of effort, well done guys….

It was a top, top afternoon & evening yesterday, so cool to meet such a great bunch of people and kick off the contest with a whole heap of beer and denim chat.

Big thanks to G&P for their hospitality and to the Trons for all their hard work making it happen.

Giles - I had the heaviest hangover in recent memory this morning after drinking far too much of your Belgian beer.  Lethal stuff, couldn't even manage my Spring Garden fry up!  Thanks again for having me.

Simon (yep, another one…)

Didn't Megatron ban you from calling yourself GingerMagician Simon?

A flagrant breach of the Trade Descriptions Act apparently, Graeme.  Still, I'm stuck with the username so he'll have to suck it up

[Megatron1505]

You're not even bloody ginger

And you're just a great shambling oaf, not an 80s era toy robot, yet no one hounds you about your user name…

Mega attaches the first MBB flasher

Then the professional showed him how it's done…

So we locked him out for showing off 

Up close and personal with the flasher

and with the patch

Mountains of beautiful MBB's
