UK Summer Meet.

[Gareth]

Say it ain't so Chrissy!   We will just have to catch you both next time.

[Neil]

Does this mean I'll have to feed myself   




Really sad you won't be with us this time

[nuphoria]

You lot!

Actually, we bought a teeny weeny caravan today and there's loads of stuff to do before HK has to go away on Sunday in it - just too complicated to get the meet in too

Anyone who wants to come and pick Ruby up for the weekend is welcome - she loves you boys!

I physically can't sit down for more than 45 mins in a car these days, so with the best will in the world I can't go unless you have them a lot further south

And East

[nuphoria]

Hey, I love the south coast... we might have to put Gareth on a flight though

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Yeah spending 14 hours to drive down and meet us lot is a bit much really

[Sparky415]

Do they have trees on the south coast? 

We could try posting him   

 

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

Trees accounted for

If we all chip in for postage you can send him here

[Gareth]

"Dear Diary, I really really should have paid for overnight rather than second class".

[Mike, Lord of the Spammers!]

 

[Tofty]

Nice one.
Great to meet you guys by the way.
Next meet should be in Alaska, if we can't keep everyone happy than at least we can make sure that everyone is equally unhappy (not that i wouldn't like to go to Alaska, at least in theory)

[Sparky415]

I didn't take many tool pictures

Here's two of mine to keep you quiet while we are waiting for David Bailey to appear 

Some choppy things 



And a few pointy things



 

[Neil]

I took my camera this time, so best I post a few shots...

There hasn't exactly been a mad influx of new tools recently and even less finding their way into the hands of us grubby bunch

Here's Gareth's latest acquisition in all its glory..



And I couldn't resist a close up of the Tofty specials..



If you want other tool shots feel free to come along and take them yourselves

MTs are the official reason we meet up like this but the educated company and lack of general public to worry about also lends itself to trying out other sharp and shiny things.  Peter brought his Kukris and bow, Gareth his axes, bows, sword, Tony his famous bucket and even I showed up with a little hatchet.



As daylight drains from the sky your average member of MTO's mind wanders to other things; less sharp but certainly shiny ..



And after all that we talked a lot of crap whilst drinking grown up beverages, but that makes for less interesting pictures

Oh, nearly forgot, no pics of the vampiric zombie polar bears we dispatched.  They don't show up on film/ccd

Thanks for a pleasant weekend chaps.
