COOL PEOPLE ARE:
Me
Cras
Doc
Nervous Pete
Jazzy and Joans
Myp and Fun Sally
Gazchap and Jem

Mixed blessings: Standing on a mountain in Wales, listening to bands that weekend, so not available.

We should be OK for it, but we're at a family wedding up in Glasgow the day/evening before so we need to work out logistix before we commit either way.

A wild menu appears!

Hmmm, I don’t appear to be on holiday for a change.

We've booked a hotel for the Saturday night, so count us in.

However, we may still change that plan because I'm in Vegas for work for the whole week prior, getting back to Heathrow on the Monday afternoon, and then the wedding later in the week means that I'd be doing around 900 miles of driving between home, Glasgow and Chez Grim... so there's every possibility that I'll just be too fucked by the time we've dropped the kids back off in Shropshire after the wedding.

Ooh, are you going to DEFCON?

Yeah, and Black Hat immediately before that.

Oh man, that's cool.

/looks at remaining training budget

I mean, me being the socially anxious and general shut-in I am, I'm as nervous as fuck about spending an entire week with 30+ people that I've never met before in a foreign country (well, as foreign as the US can be I guess) so if you want to take my place...

I forgot to say but of course I'm up for this. I once again look forward to manhandling a big rucksack of beer in sweltering heat.

Yassssss!

The rest of you - even if you can't / don't want to pay yet, please let me know if you are planning to come so your Chef's can work out how much food they need.

Afraid I can't make this one.

Have I paid for me and Jem yet? I can't remember.

Me neither

I'll put a list in the first post.

Turns out you did not!

Aw that sucks. Let's have a meet up soon then, either at yours, in Cardiff or at points in between!

I have fixed this most gross incompetence.
