Meets and Greets

I've been busy these days with various social commitments. Friday saw Bob Douglas' retirement from the University Computer Services, so we gathered at the Royal Oak to see him off; although I doubt that will be the last we'll see of him. :)

Yesterday was taken up with getting to London for the BOFH meeting; Tori was coming over from New York so a bunch of us went down to meet her. We had a meal and copious quantities of fine British ale at the Green Man, Gt. Portland St., and I caught up with a few people I haven't seen in a very long time.

On Friday, Alex Page foolishly posted to London.PM asking if he was the only Perl hacker in Oxford. I rounded up the usual suspects, and we're hoping to have a meet after the Linux Day today - I'm not involved in that, but it looks like the Oxfordshire Linux Users Group are arranging an installfest down in Donnington.
