Today I had the pleasure of meeting Ross (naughtyfox) and his other half.

I had a nice time with them at St Pancras station bar (the old Booking Office),

I now have a moomin mug. Very handy thing to have and some moomin plasters. And some chocolates and a funny perspex measuring jar. Excellent.

After a couple of drinks I said goodbye and ran away as fast as I could as they needed to get to Heathrow for a flight.

Its nice to meet people off the forum

To Ross and Pirkku - have a safe and enjoyable journey home and hopefully see you again before too long.

We should have a whip-round for Foxy and Pirkko, it must cost them a small fortune being so kind to us sweary, chip shouldered weirdos.

Their kindness and generosity is quite something though. 🚢🍻👍

I also went bearing a gift for the boating adventurers

Generosity seems to be a bit of a feature of this forum in my limited experience of meeting other members. Full of people ready to help each other as well. All in all a jolly good show I reckon !

Indeed, only today we were talking on the drive home from the airport that we could spend some time searching for windlasses around locks with the powerful magnet! If we pull up an unexploded WW2 bomb we will return it to its owner (Angela Merkel).

Also very handy if you drop your keys in.
