Glasgow Meet November 8-9th - the pics !
« on: Sunday 09 November 08 01:43 UTC (UK) »

I'd like to say what a great day out we had.  I'd like to, but can't.  It was the worst day out I've ever had!
None of us liked each other, the venues were rubbish, meal was horrible and we all went home sober!

Then there's the truth!!

What a fantastic day and evening.

Thanks Syb, well done for organising it and thanks to everyone that made an appearance - you all added to the day and night in your own way.

Had you going Poll!  Grin Grin Grin
It was a brilliant day / night.

As for my sense of humour - folk get it or they don't. 

You know me.

You were missed.

I'm actually half way through an email to you.  I'll edit it because most of it, I'll say on the board.

However! I'm looking for a favour. AGAIN!

I'm leaving group photos to others because mine never turned out too well.  There are a couple I might post over the next few weeks.  Depends on how much the people concerned are willing to donate to the daval57 charity.  Failing that, a tenner in the Poppy box.

Anyway, as I said, no group photos from me.  I'm going to try and post the pretentious arty shxx.

I want to say at this point, none of these are cropped or altered (apart from the sepia of the Hunterian).
I love my new camera!!

Apologies, I'm turning the Glasgow Meet into a Daval photoshoot!

Here's another couple....

Matt and my dessert

Allan, great meeting you too.
Sorry about The Botanics.  Because of the weather it was cancelled last minute.
Matt and I wandered into town and met up with Val, Syb and Brenda and we went to The Remembrance Service in George Square.
We got rained and hailed on but compared to what the people we were remembering went through......it puts it in perspective!

A couple of people pics.
I'm sure other people will have better ones.  I'm disappointed with my group photos.
