Re: 2011 Meet
I can state categorically that all the cakes and crispy things were completely yummy.
Big thanks to The Bunny for organising a top day out in a very nice part of the country with plenty of interesting things to see and do. We even managed to solve the Meta!!
Cheers. BB.

Re: 2011 Meet
I've not done a map puzzle for ages, so feel free to send me the playing area by email Sis
Sounds like another good time has been had by all. I hope that we kept all the rain (and thunder and lightning) up here and your weather was good. Travel safe everyone.
Looking forward to the new photos of the gang.

Re: 2011 Meet
I'm home now (have left the drunkards to it... )
It was a good day despite the cake catastrophe (more to follow when I can be bothered). Lovely to meet BB Chazzie and Biscuit for the first time. Big thanks to LAT for all your help, including a wonderful party bag and some interesting looking puzzles! I am now the proud owner of a Puzzlebrains Bunnylump keyring!
We will be posting various photos soonish for everyone on the forum to judge. We ran out of time at the end and didn't have time to look at all the photos. Again more on that when I get a chance.

I don't have hot flushes. I have short holidays in the Tropics.

Re: 2011 Meet
I am now sitting in an exhausted heap. Hoping you ladies all got home safely this afternoon and that you didn't get torrential rain to drive through. Thank you for your company today.
Just in case anyone cares any more...this is the official set of answers for the car trail we did yesterday. WARNING If you are trying to complete the map trail, you might NOT want to look at this first, because it gives away some of the answers.

Re: 2011 Meet
Had a great time. Bunnylump had gone to so much trouble including hiding puzzle pieces for us to find, priming people behind the bar in one pub to expect questions etc, not to mention a beautifully set out trail to follow.
We also had a good morning in St Alban's today plus lunch before setting off for home. All in all a wonderful weekend, and not too much torrential rain on the way home either.

Re: 2011 Meet
Back home and catching up with the photos!
Many many thanks Bunnylump for a fantastic day yesterday - you obviously put a lot of effort in - and it was much appreciated.
Also thanks to LAT for helping out, the party bags - more puzzles..... and the fantastic key ring - will treasure that!
Good to catch up and meet up with all - really enjoyed the weekend.

I'd second that.

Re: 2011 Meet
Oh, and by the way, thank you very much for the round of drinks at the pub from Scurra and Gill.

Re: 2011 Meet
Thanks from me, too for a fascinating day of puzzle-hunting and for all the interesting places we visited en route - what lovely little villages (and pubs!)there are still hidden away in our countryside . Thank you Bunny for the whole idea and all the effort put in - it really worked well. And thanks to LAT for helping to make it work and for the 'extras'
...And best of all, it's great to have the chance to meet people face to face and have fun together (not to mention the fabulous cake!)

What she said! A big thank you to you both from me.
Just got home after a slow journey home. Took nearly an hour longer than yesterday
Had a really good time, and it was lovely to meet Biscuit and Chazzie.
Re: 2011 Meet
Lunch (Really great pub) Sorry for the two almost identical pictures, but one has Looby and LAT looking better and the other has BB.

Re: 2011 Meet
Thanks to all involved especially to Hazel for all her hard work and to my roomie and chauffeuse for her tolerance!
There's no point in having a last minute if you don't use it!
