Title: Who's doing the write up for the 3rd UK Meet Up?
Post by: Mike, Lord of the Spammers! on September 05, 2009, 12:30:59 AM
In the finest traditions of MT.O, someone has to do the Official Write Up, and this time it's not me :P

So at least there's a good chance it'll be entertaining :D

Get voting :pok: :pok:
