    Sorry for not replying earlier but I was on vacations, I will be on Giraffe at about 13.45. I’ll have a copy of the latest BT issue on my hands (White cover).

    Panagiotis,

    Is it a case of “timeo danaos et dona BT” 😉 ??

    Have a good evening my friend and well done for organising it. Again, sorry I can’t be with you.

    hahahaha *,

    Hope that you smoke those cigars I sent you and you didn’t through them away 😀

    Simon take care your health and we will meet before September. I am in the process to organize a weekend to Birmingham with my girlfriend 😉 .

    *Timeo Danaos et dona ferent?s is a Latin phrase from Virgil’s Aeneid (II, 49). It means: “I fear the Greeks, even when bringing gifts”. It has been paraphrased in English as the aphorism “Beware of Greeks bearing gifts”.

    Sounds good, Potakas – I look forward to it.

    By the way, I have heard the phrase modified as “Timeo Danaos et donna kebab ferentes” (beware of Greeks bearing Donna kebabs), but that seemed a bit harsh to me!!

    We you be posting some flight reviews from your latest trip (you’re just back, according to Twitter).

    Simon

    PS I’m saving the cigars for a special occasion.

    hope you all had a good time, sorry i couldnt make it, I just arrived back in UK after 3 weeks away on Sat afternoon, if I had gone off 2 days later for a beer I would have been a dead man with her indoors!!!

    I’m not doing anything today, so can meet up at Giraffe around 2PM.

    I will be driving and parking my car in the T5 short stay, so can give lifts to up to 4 people to Waterside and then the Green Man after.

    I’ve not been to one of these meetings before, so I look forward to meeting some of you later.

    Nice Bucksnet!

    Simon,

    I will but can’t see many to be interested to read about 22hours on WT flights 😉

    I’ve just finished getting the car filled and dropped off at Hertz. Running late and in T4. Should I go straight to the Museum. Think I will

    We told to the reception that you are coming. We are at the museum

    Nice to meet all you guys, and I hope to see you again soon.

    Cheers

    Morning all – many thanks to those of you who did make it yesterday and apologies I had to leave slightly early; pleasure to see you all and I think it was a cracker of a day.

    Thanks to Sepsas for organising it.

    Would love to have joined you all.

    Thanks all for your company. And to the Green Man for taking the photos. Will we ever know who he really was? Can’t see any posts from during the time was there…

    Great afternoon and evening, now we have to find something equally as good as the BA museum. Who was the Green Man indeed???


    Potakas

    Paul,

    On this thread there were some posts during our meeting…Doesn’t seem that the Green man was one of the regulars.

    Thanks all of you for coming, I really enjoyed it. Only if we had exchange some words with Keith Williams when we saw him to learn any future developments, that would have been great.

    As Nigel said we have to find something really interesting for the next time… What about this one??
