I was thinking about the upcoming picnic that is being organised, and i thought to myself, who would i most like to meet there, and why. It kinda made me curious as to who and why everyone else would like to meet...



I'l kick off with..



I'd like to meet Phil Bailey because i quite enjoy his almost childlike behaviour..he really does make me gri, even when he's being silly and obnoxious.



( also meeting the ever lovely Elko [Ismet] would be lovely too)

As ever Phil, you always seem to say the right thing to diffuse a possible explosion...and i agree, it does sound rather like the Wizard Of Oz...so, i guess it begs the question...who has the heart???



This is really not on topic, and i am not helping matters at all. However, i truly am interested to hear who would like to meet who and why....

OK seriously Sam

I do not think there is anyone else I would like to meet as I have met most of the long term members on this board and I will admit that everyone of them has been a pleasure to meet, you included.

Dave - you ole smoothy, you



There are quite a lot of members on here I have met already and quite a lot I would like to meet. Unfortunately, we are unable to be at the first picnic, but looking forward to hopefully attending any others that may be arranged in the future.



Daisy (Sam) Perhaps we might meet up one of these days?

Jeannie..i am sure our day will come...just let me know when and where!!

Apart from all the top contributors, there are a couple of geologists, I don't know their names right now but would love to talk to them and also anybody keen on history.

Anybody with a good sense of humour

Jeannie

Re message 17

I was going to suggest that we meet up as a foursome but then I remembered that I have a wife. Damnation, anyway Sam is a great person and considering what she has been through she would show up a lot of moaning expats out here. Make it your first priority to meet Sam.

I love the girl but in a friendly way of course.

Well, Sam, looks as though we should definitely meet up as soon as is feasible. I couldn't possibly ignore that glowing reference from AJ (even though I suspect that part of his message was "many a true word, etc. etc.".) I am, of course, joking; Dave's wife is a lovely lady also



I'll contact you via e-mail nearer the time of our next holiday (end May) if that's OK.

If only you lot knew how much I would like to be at such a gathering. My annual visit is coming up but no firm date just yet.

I wonder how many would form a more favourable opinion of some members compared to the one held through this forum

I will be there God willing. I have already met quite a few memebers on this forum and I look forward to meeting many more. I even know the famous, or should that read 'infamous' DC. And should the obnoxious NN turn up there will be a truce for the day, maybe!

Nah Ismet, we can do our own policing, no problem; we are all grown up are we not? We can also be our own rubbish police. Anyone Cyp44 member who drops litter will be shot!

I hope to be there too. It believe it would be good if Johnny Lee is willing to conduct an auction/raffle in support of Ismail. The Wildebeest (bless her) will offer up a couple of her "off the hoof", framed, water colour, paintings, and, we have friends also willing to donate prizes. I pity anyone who wants to start a fight as Wilde has wardrobes full of winners trophies (blood stained handbags !)

Thankyou very much Giles. I did try searching for it but I'm thick.......with a head cold and feeling like death warmed up so ran out of patience.
