    But boy is that Hole dark!! David - you need to bring those brighter light bulbs you mentioned.

    I must say I found the goat under the table a bit off-putting though and my Bay State Blue tattoo is really painful still - did you really have to insist I got *that* design?!

    See you all next time I hope

    ps no comment about the photos but next time I'll insist on you getting a "Permission to Publish" waiver ;-)
    Huge thanks for the paper. Apologies for the photos - noted and deleted.

    Hi All,

    Thanks for Saturday it was very informative and I managed to get some of my pens identified. Lovely group.
    I tried sending a thanks before but I could not see it, so will try again.

    Best wishes,

    Adrian.

    Annie - I was joking about the photos. Sorry if the wink wasn't obvious enough

    Dear London Geeks,

    Can I suggest Saturday 17th May for the next gathering? The goat has a busy month and so do I. The 17th looks like being the only free(ish) weekend I have.

    Annie you may suggest it by all means but I have a day trip booked with the club on the 17th. The goat will be retiring soon to be replaced with a chicken. Poor fellows tired of being inseminated and sacrificed every month.

    No problem. I'll bow out for May.

    17th of May will be fine for me but not any May Saturday prior to it. We might consider then having the next meeting only in June then.

    Unfortunately, I can't make the 17th May as I'm going to a friend's wedding.

    Is the next meet up definitely going to be June, rather than this Saturday?

    Yes we are not going to have a meeting in May since some of us cannot make it this Saturday.

    The question I would like to raise now is which Saturday in June? I can only make it on Saturday the 7th of June.

    I didn't think anyone was about in May so have made alternative arrangements for this Saturday. As for June, yes potentially I can do the 7th as on the 8th June (Sunday) I'll be doing the Race for Life. A pre race cow burger at The Hole and some light nib grinding would fit with my training schedule.

    Unfortunately I have just checked with the boss at home and I will not be available to go to London on the weekend of 7th or 8th and neither 14th and 15th. The only weekend I can make will be the weekend of the 21st of June but you guys can go ahead on the 8th.

    I really was looking forward to see you guys again.

    The 7th is a go. I have a function on the 8th. I'll be bringing my Chinese pens for you all to dip. I hope to bring a Chicken as the goats on holiday. Will we have a theme?

    Hi Annie,

    I can only do Saturday 20th of June or Sunday 21st of June (preferably Saturday 21st) but not before as I'll not be available in the previous 2 weekends.

    So that I do not disturb the apple cart please feel free to have the meeting on the 7th of June.

    On my side I also cannot go to the Midlands as I haven't got my own means of transport to get there.

    Really miss you guys already.

    Well I can't do it 21st as I have a prior engagement that weekend in fact the only Saturday I have free is the 7th. Sorry Rui, I'm sure one of us will tell you all about it.

    It is no problem at all for me to miss a meeting or more. You guys have great fun and I'll see you in July or so.
