EB Day 2007 - The Aftermath...

Post by **Keith Robinson** » 14 May 2007, 02:10

Wow! Excellent reports by all, and by the sounds of it an even better Day than last year! I am extremely envious, but happy you all had such a good time. If it's okay with everyone, I'd like to start cribbing from your posts and photos and put together a page for the main site.

I said to Tony the other day, via email, that I think next year's Day is going to be bigger still, and perhaps we should move the venue to a castle! And make it a 2-day event; from all that I've heard, and from what I remember last year, the Day is over way too quickly. Oh, and I think we should have lights a-flashing from a nearby tower, and we should all follow a secret passage underground that leads to the sea where wreckers once smuggled goods ashore... Hmm, well, okay, maybe I'm going too far.

But next I WILL make it, by gosh!

Thanks for posting the photos Nigel, they're fantastic.

Ming, are you going to post yours?

I asked Nigel if it was okay, and he said he was dying to know it.

Jane said she hoped Nigel didn't cut himself. He wasn't scared while attending others, messing about with blood, but if he saw his own, he faints.

She also mentioned that Nigel didn't know how to swim, in spite of her desperate attempts in trying to get him to go to the swimming bath.

Jools, the pics will be up soon, when I manage to upload them in Photobucket

Photobucket is sooooo slow here that it took me half an hour to upload these two images.

It's a good job you're not at school Ming, plenty of time for uploading pictures!
Don't forget to take some of yourself wearing your new T Shirts!

Yeah, I've got plenty of time to upload pictures! Photobucket always had been slow, but I use it because all my images are always in order.

That's a very nice picture of Val Biro, Ming - I hope you got him to sign something for you, he's a very well known illustrator.

Gee, doesn't it look like I'm talking away to myself??

Wonderful to see the photos. Just what I needed, it being a wet and windy Monday. Got a severe case of post EB day blues!

I got Val Biro to sign my notebook.

Please do get cribbing and cropping away, Keith - we're counting on you!

Ming, I love the way you remember the funny things people said!

Feel free to crib from my post if you wish Keith. Ming and Moonraker, excellent pictures, they transport me back there just looking at them. I can't wait to see MisterioJuvenil's photos.

Great review, Ming. Thanks for all the lovely things you have said about us all!

I just want to do it all over again!
