It was really nice to meet loads of people who came up and said "you treepotato?" The uni hock was the best and the gladiators and chain it and well everything really!

Thankyou again,

treepotato

Now I know why I thought it looked familiar... Sorry for not saying hi. Next time...

Indeed, a most excellent day. The hockey was fantastic fun!

Anyway... I'm off to have another hunt for my blue t-shirt so the yellow one might not be lying...

I was the person in the hideously garish bright yellow t-shirt, which falsely proclaimed that I have another t-shirt in blue...

Glad you had fun. Don't thank me though - this one was really just Sarah and Barbara (on reception). I just turned up as a punter this time.

Barbara Roll, my co organiser, who ran registratraion and sorted out all sorts of things behind the scenes.

Rocket, Nick, Paul, trev, Ali and Rupert for help with workshops, games basketball and hockey.

And of course, THANK YOU to all of you who came, with out you there would be no uni meet. You will be pleased to hear that the day covered its costs and we are thinking about doing another one in the summer, dates to be fixed.

Next timne we will have to encourage people to wear name labels!

It was fun wasn't it. I also did a bit of realising who people were as I was leaving, sorry if I did not say hello or apeared vague when I was talked to. (treepotato you were not one of them, even if I had not been introduced, I would have known you :-P).

Not sure if I can make the next one, but will be seeing you all at BUC anyway. :-)
