@Kasi I expect another update at 4am!

@jtaylor69

Further up it’s started to rain ️

We just boarded a train to Waterloo Station and will try to catch a little bit of London before flying home this evening.
Thank you very much for the great hospitality, the good company, the laughs, the beers, the memories.
I safely stashed away my ferry return ticket, because this will surely not have been my last time to Gosport!

@tody smart man!!

Ah, you’re up

[goosehd]

@Giles 2.8% beer was a genius decision by the crew and went down really well…those who were pounding back the sour’s last night might not be in the same condition this morning

[tody]

@goosehd I did and I‘m still alive. Not sure about @scooter and @neph93…

[Tago Mago]

@tody Great to see you both. Safe travels and let me know how the rail replacement service works

[goosehd]

Throwing this out there that my family and I have had an unbelievable time so far and can’t express how much I have enjoyed meeting everyone…I love you guys ️

[tody]

@Tago-Mago No rail replacement service. South Western Railway via Eastleigh, 2:19h and one change of trains.

[Giles]

We did the 2.8 in 2022 and it was brilliant. Tim, remembered that and recreated it for us this year….

[Kasi]

Let’s go

[Oaktavia]

Wondering if day one in my big buck would be okay in this bit of rain...!

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia I would say yes as long as you don’t completely soak it and to be honest may help it settle a little faster. It’s not fragile but I do understand your hesitation.

Edit: …and by soak I mean wearing it in the bath tub type wet.

[Oaktavia]

@goosehd okay cool, that is what I was hoping/thinking too. Thanks again for your eyes on sizing yesterday as well. Big help man.

[goosehd]

@Oaktavia Anytime and can’t wait to see what you do with it…it’s special and one of my favourites.

[Megatron1505]

@Kasi love those mate.

[Megatron1505]

We got back home late last night after a fantastic day with all those who could attend.

Just want to say a huge thank you to @Alex and all the crew for their hard work and incredible hospitality.

Great to see old friend and meet a few folks I had not had the pleasure of knowing before.

For me personally it was a welcome return after a period of absence. I’m not saying that I’ll be here every day going forwards, but let’s just say I will be around more often than not.

Shout out to old mates @louisbosco @neph93 @swiss-jeansfreak @DrPat, always a pleasure lads.

Also to the gents I had either not met before, or only very briefly @Matt @T4920 @Kasi @goosehd .

I know we spoke to a lot more folks, but my memory for names and forum names is shocking, safe to say everyone was great.

Lastly in this “Oscar Winners” speech of a post, @Madame-Buttonfly @Giles , so good to see you again, I’ll leave the next meet up arrangements with Pam as you know I am fucking useless.

[Megatron1505]

Also, to the young gent who asked me yesterday if there would be a HWDC4.

Never say never, but never

[Nik]

Great to see forum friends thanks to Iron Heart for organising a great weekend. Already wore my fleece western shirt to warm up after a rainy run this morning.
