Every damn year, without fail, every damn thread with the word megameet in it ends up disrupted and a number of them have had to be locked. Littlestone, maybe you should lock this one? (BTW, I might make it tomorrow, there's lots of stoney developments to discuss).

(BTW, I might make it tomorrow, there's lots of stoney developments to discuss). Ahh – that’s great Nigel! We’ll be sitting outside (there’ll be a Heritage Action poster on the table for anyone who doesn’t know us). You can pass through Ingatestone on the way, The Church of St Mary with St Leonard in Broomfield (with its amazing puddingstone) is not far away, and the Chapel of St Peter-on-the-Wall at Bradwell-on-Sea is within striking distance for the early starter. Happy Ēostre!

Please stop it! I don't understand why this thread was revived when a new one could have been started. I couldn't care less who meets where, how they get there, or what they drink. There are far more important things in life to worry about.

Resonox wrote: Some people just can't help being twats, let's forgive him. I'd love to forgive him in person. ; ) Reported![/quote] Sorry, Resonox, but you started all this with your unnecessarily aggressive reply to tjj. Some people have been affected by drink driving, and a simple plea isn't offensive. I don't drink and drive, but I accept people reminding me not to. If anyone should be "reported" it should be you in the first place, not megadread, but I don't see any point starting crying to those in charge, and anyway, why make things worse? I accept that you didn't like megadread's reply, but an action often results in an equal and opposite reaction. Let's leave it and move on. There is so much bitterness on this forum these days, and most of it is about trivia. And, yes, I have been involved too, so I am not innocent, and don't claim to be. Personally, I wish everyone a happy, successful, and site-filled meet. As far as driving goes, I'm sure you'll all be sensible, and remember the words of Jimmy Saville: "Clunk-click every trip, jangle jangle, jewellery, jewellery, say hello to Mr.Cigar, well how's about that then." Regards, TE.
