Sorry. Im not going to be able to make it. I tired but I was unable to rearrange an appointment and didnt get the news until late. Both me and Bertie were looking forward to it. We esp wanted to come and thank a few ppl F2F for their help. Hope you guys have a really super time!!!

Well that was great fun. Thanks to all that showed up and to Unknownbliss for pulling everything together. A special thanks to Paul for bringing me Beer

(I totally owe you now, the favour will be returned

).

Photo's are being sorted out now and shall be uploaded to flickr soon - I think collectively we have close to 2000 lol, although I must warn you that most are pictures of Bertie and the rest are either us taking pictures of oursevles taking pictures of Bertie, or use taking pictures of ourselves taking pictures of ourselves

Either way, you're in for a laugh. Until next time ^_^

Totally agree, it was a great meetup and good to meet all of you. For those interested we went to starbucks (most of us got lost while trying to find it), then went onto nandos for lunch. Afterwards we headed down to the london eye but due to queues we decided to go on a river cruise instead which took us to tower bridge. Once there we went to starbucks (again), then got lost looking for the evening venue. Once we got there we had a great meal courtesy of phpBB. Once we were done some people went to the pub while others went back to hotels/went to catch trains. A blog post about it all is coming soon.

Some pictures posted by paul on twitter as a sneak preview:

You'll have to view kenny's images here (top line) as those images are too big to post here.

Did you guys actually talk to each other, or just frantically take photos?

That almost sounds like the phpBB organization paid the tab.

That is indeed the case. It was decided late and not to announce this as part of the meetup so people wouldn't show up just for the free food.

1st part of my picture set has been tagged and uploaded - don't take all the captions seriously

phpBB London 2012 Meeting

The 2nd set is really just some general pictures of London, some taken from the London Eye. I won't post a link to them, but you can find in my phpBB collection on Flickr along with the other phpBB Meetup photo's

Will this be standard for other meetups, then? If so, I'm announcing a weekly meetup in Monterey.
