We're up to about 160 friends, family, customers, partners, retailers and the .jp crew….

@Chris:

Yep, just to ruin the party for you, Gav.

At least you're thinking of me

Following on from Giles's comment about the number of people we're expecting, the party on Saturday is now fully/over subscribed, so if anybody out there is thinking of jumping in at the last minute - sorry, but it's too late!

:o

[Niro]

sounds like it will be one hell of a party!

shame I couldn't be making it down

[Giles]

We thought at a push we'd get 150 people who were foolish enough to admit they know me, we're up to 180 and having to get fairly militant with those popping out of the woodwork….

[Chris]

What has the world come to, when so many would publicly declare such a shameful thing?  Surely it's a sign of the Apocalypse…

[Cutlasshound]

Im looking forward to the 'birthday beats/bumps' section of the evening….. knuckledusters at the ready....

You have permanent, individual knuckle dusters, @Cutlasshound 

[Megatron1505]

Advanced apologies to anyone I haven't met before, even if we have spoken at length on the forum there is a good chance I won't recognise you due to my terrible memory 

[Seul]

Due to his terrible drinking, he also won't remember you the day after, even if you've spoken at length the night before…

[spitfiredealer]

I can never remember people's real names and feel weird calling them by there forum user name at these events.

I know what you mean. I'm terrible with names as well. Luckyly, names can be avoided elegantly in conversaytions to a certain extend.

[Giles]

Until someone else comes over and you need to make introductions…..

[Madame Buttonfly]

Would anyone object to name badges?  Just simple ones, for example:

Paula
(Mme Buttonfly)

Oliver
(Cole)

Danny
(Rivet & Hide)

Just for the daytime events?

[Megatron1505]

They would be a great help to me

You know better than anyone how bad my memory is, how many time have I asked you for your shipping address 

[rocket]

glad that most of my stuff already comes with a dope one, saying Iron Heart  

[UnTucked]

Sounds good to me… I'm terrible with names, so this would save me from calling everyone "Bro"
