Manchester meet *update venue*

[Ellen]

Thanks everyone for a great night, we had a great turn out, including some folks from UKV and Vapepit,

The venue was a little more cramped than I expected, but all credit to the management of The Parkfield Inn, There were large mods, pipes, clouds of vapour, bottes of juice everywhere, even Gordy building a coil for Boo's Genisis and they didn't batt an eyelid at what we were doing. The food was incredible too. A lovely, truly vape friendly little pub.

I have to say I was fairly beyond exhausted by the time I got home, but it was all worth it, lots of lovely people. Thanks everyone

WEll ive just got up from a brilliant night

Was fantastic meeting you all, and putting faces to names.

Massive thanks from me to Blue and his lovely wife for taking me and bringing me home and for putting up with my mad ramblings.

Ellen for organising the whole thing, now get planning the next one

Gordy for being extremely patient in showing a decidedly squiffy Boo by this stage how to put together a genesis, and who knows fine well it didn't sink in and it will be in the post to him next time it needs wicking

And everyone else who put up with my waffle.

Oh and if I dropped your mod and it no now longer works (I had a severe case of the dropsis last night), I am very sorry

But you do remember inviting everyone to Sunday Lunch….. Don’t you ???

It was a lovely gesture and I know you were a little surprised when everyone said “yes”!

See you tomorrow…..

Thanks Ellen for a great 2 hours with you all, Sorry i had to dash off but a long drive home!!!,
I had a meal at 5.00pm and must say it was top class,nice venue and great people also delighted to meet an old Buddy who i had not seen for 5 years (Hacksaw Bob) .
Thankyou Ellen.

ps orderd my first PIPE, come on lunerdog get the finger out!!!

[Skwoddy]

Just to echo whats already been said, great night, great people and great venue, Ellen done a first class job in organisation of everything, even gave us a great show of showing us how much of a pushover Gordy is. ( I'll let Ellen explain herself ).

Liner was more difficult, I'll get that p+ 10440 if it kills me !!!!

Frog and mrs frog were stars, they brought enough goodies to sink the navy, I came home with 70 ml of juice I hadn't planned to!! Although Julie ninja'd my lovely Strawberry milkshake.

Lunar is a class guy, some amazing mods and font of knowledge, the guys from the pit were cool, very pleasant and interesting.

Great to see Johnboy an Julie's dedication in travelling so far, wonderful people.

All in all it was a meet to remember, Even though I didn't drink ( rare for me ), but I will next time, I have to show lunar how it's done

The evening was slightly marred in that I had to fondle several GG's and oddys! Being reminded that I still don't have one, but it's changed my mind again, I WILL get one !!

Thanks again, already looking forward to the next

Skwoddy out.

"even gave us a great show of showing us how much of a pushover Gordy is"

Oooer! What did I miss?

[Ellen]

I may have bought a Sturm V2 from Gordy, I say "may" because it doesn't have any batteries so I haven't tried it yet

It's a gorgeous MOD, well done Ellen

[Perpetua]

Looks like you all had a fantastic time.


Thank you for sharing the pictures, I'm a bit concerned about Gordy's eyes in one photo though.

[nicky]

Oh Gordy you do have lovely dimples.

Hello all, A great night, thanks Ellen for organising it and Johnboy what a turn up (we met in VW camper circles many moons ago). Shame he had to shoot off, What a bonus wobblybob had a bucket of RY4 going spare! top man!
Great seeing Gordy set up the genny, and then set it up again, and again ..... Is he still there cutting more off the coil?

Top pipes from the mr Lunar dog. I may have a try on the pole lathe and get the carving tools out now and have a go.
