How did the meet up go? Who came? Looks like lot's been happening on AV, though on this connection the proxy server is blocking me from going on AV for some reason so can't witness the fun.

Do you prefer AV or I2?

the meetup was good. in greenwich, so right on my doorstep. ppl there that i can remember were dr nawe, deano, punctual, philip the great, susan, kam/mr spock, tom/mutate, omega female, robertn and mike/dnsdude. oh and steve45. and david1978, psych, platypus hatstand.

anyway it was an entertaining enough day. felt slightly awkward when some girl who someone asked to take a pic of the group said "You're all beautiful" as if we were a group on a day trip from a home or something...

had afternoon in park then on boat up thames - had a few beers with a few afterwards in waterloo.

prefer here as it moves a bit quicker, there's a wider variety of people and isn't censored or anything
although all these dancing smileys are getting on my nerves a bit.. might switch them off

What was the crowd like at the meet up? Any of them 'mild' aspies like us? Anyone worth getting to know? AV seems to have a fairly diverse mix of higher and medium functioning aspies. Really annoyed I couldn't make it.

Will plan some hard partying once I get my money back!

I will never be beaten, be looking for me on your arse Mr Thief  :police: :police: :police:

I find slow forums annoying too, seems busier here. AV is good for the UK aspect though, more chance of meeting people IRL.

Good luck with the bank getting your money back, I've heard that they'll try anything to get out of refunding customer's money- mainly claiming that you must have kept your pin number with your card.

i am sure that they would never admit to having shoddy security in place,  even though it is proven time and time again.
bottom line, the banks somehow make money off your loss.  they have to.  otherwise they would have better security precautions in place.

I hope you were only referring to certain Brits and not lumping us all in the same group, after all isn't that what us Brits do? :P

Does that mean I've got to start being an uppity Brit and stop talking to you?
