It is from Greece as well... and there are always good prices through EasyJet. Maybe I can get the sleeper Greek QLers to attend.. .(several of them DO read this list as I found out recently).

You lift a rock, chances are you'll find an Italian or Irish (They outnumber them 2:1 I am s ure) (Well on the 2nd rock however you will find a Greek probably selling that damn rock too ;-) (Now of course that was a joke.. .well sort of ;-) hee-hee) Phoebus

I know Davide was pretty depressed last time at the turnout, especially as quite a few of the well known punter faces were not there. It was a helluva lot better turnout though than the Irish boozeup (8-)# Sorry Darren, but we all enjoyed the Irish show as you know - far from a waste of time. All shows I go to are worthwhile in some way, especially the Italian one. We had a very nice couple of days, and renewed old friendships and pizzas. Davide - if you are 'listening', don't be put off by last time. If you organise another one say next June, I would certainly come if I can. I need another 'Red Lion' pizza (8-)# (That town halfway between Reggio and Parma, that Sturat and I found by accident by bicycle. I will not forget my starter. Stuart had a very nice roasted veg plate. I had 'patate frite'. I should have guessed - chips (8-(# but truly giant and well covered pizzas later. Some very good QL developments can start by idle chat at shows. RomDisq for a start - that was started in Eindhoven by me mentioning the Z88 flash memory card in the earshot of Stuart. We put together a plan on the way home. It was at an Austrian show that I discovered Jonathan Dent was a TCP/IP specialist. superHermes seeds were sown by Lau and I at a show. -- QBBS (QL fido BBS 2:252/67) +44(0)1442-828255 tony@.co.uk http://www.firshman.co.uk Voice: +44(0)1442-828254 Fax: +44(0)1442-828255 TF Services, 29 Longfield Road, TRING, Herts, HP23 4DG
