    So, which of us is going to address the
    I second this statement wholeheartedly!

    It is always a pleasure to visit Hamerton and also always a pleasure to catch up with like-minded people, so having the opportunity to do both at the same time is a privilege.

    Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to Hamerton, and obviously it was great to see everyone and meet some others for the first time.

    Massive thanks to everyone who organised it, even bigger thanks to those that gave me lifts! ;) Until next year. :)

    I would just like to say a big thank you to Tim Brown and Mike Grayson for organising as I know just how much work is involved in something like this.I would also like to give a huge thanks to Andrew Swales for his superb hosting of the event and giving up his time so freely,as I know he could have been doing many other things instead of hosting us!
