    It was really great to meet you all yesterday, especially the people who flew in from inter-state - the Sydney people were stoked you guys could make it. I hope you all had a good time.

    Was great to come up.

    Got a stinking headache this morning - had ear & sinus problems on the flight home that did my head in literally. Probably not as big a headache as the poor girl though who was stuck next to CK & I on the flight back to Melbourne who innocently asked "so why were you visiting Sydney today?".

    Took an hour but we absolutely shattered her view of the world ;) Was seriously a conversation that should have been videotaped.

    I won't mention the bloody backpack we picked up in The Rocks so we could distribute CK's swaps amongst the carry-on for the flight home! Think there's a photo of it somewhere being modeled to help with the purchase decision :p

    I enjoyed myself immensely. Great to meet the single digit members (Roo and Steve) as well as Big A.D. Graeme, Mighty Atom, gnik, Peter and the rest of the group.

    Hopefully will be able to do it again sometime.

    Don't worry, there will be a booby prize in the mail to you very soon.

    (...and before anyone says anything, no, get your minds out of the gutter).
