There's one fairly safe way of getting recognised and potentially accepted into our most splendid clique, and that is to attend the annual forum meet. We use this opportunity to stand around, breathing heavily at each other whilst trying to remember eye contact is socially expected. Details are somewhere in this section

I tend to count to 5 or 6 before being engaged by a nearby tree or shiny penny and then returning to the eyes.

Bloody worse part about those meets is people come up to me and say "y'alright Turbo." I look at them and try and cover up the fact that I have absolutely no sodding idea who they are. I don't think I do a particularly good job with that either. Less so this forum, but there have been previous meet ups for example the Metal Camp forum meet up in 2008. Felt a bit bad that the only guy I knew there was part of my travelling party. :lol:

Yeah, 7 on the Thursday. No thanks, will be seeing friends I haven't seen in months, or in some cases since last BS, and watching bands in the Sophie tent. But running into people throughout the weekend might be cool. Though even if people tell me their username I'll still have no clue, probably vice versa!

Just say you're the guy with the number in your username. They'll be no confusion with the other guy we used to have with a number in his name.

Mostly I use it to sample whatever odd yet potent liquid you've brought with you. What was it last time? Iced tots infused vodka or something equally ridiculous!

Indeed, and that is what I shall have again this year (I know, a *repeat booking*) unless I also bring along some gin

I'm wondering if there's a way to ship a batch of my patented spiced biscuits into the arena to share around...

Hmmm... the glazed eyes indicate that I might have been in the VIP bar for a bit too long by this point. I think Dan took the picture:
