Oh my Fucksey
Well i'm officially knackered after a weekend of madness. I was lucky enough to be at the now pretty much infamous Green Wing Convention. I thought I would attempt to descibe my weekend, so here goes
Friday
Meet up with Spence at Digbeth bus station for our busy journey to fair old London town. We had a pretty good journey what with the IT girls sitting behind us how just couldn't wait for the festival season to start and the Life of Brian extra from the sermon on the mount who spent the entire journey talking to himself ......it was all good fun. Met up with other conventioneers at Victoria....Bikey, Stacie, Rachel, Fraudulent Little Tart, MDM, Waxy and Terri. It was the off to catch the tube to the venue. The rest of Friday night included drinking, blowing up balloons, sticking stickers on yoyo's and singing and dancing around Tesco.
Saturday
Up early for breakfast, then on with the decorating. Then it was helping with getting everyone badged up and sorted into their teams for the quiz. I got to insult a famous person and run around a green in the middle of London with a waste paper bin on my head whilst being filmed.....and this I did whilst sober. I spent far too much money on auction items and then had some drinks and stuck post it notes on my head......yup I was still sober.
Sunday
Up early again for to catch coach home, very tired but very happy. I had a fantastic weekend which will stay with me for every. Cheers to everyone who orgainized it and to everyone I met whilst there, you are all wonderful people.

Was good to meet you!
Oh yes I have to say you Rach, bikey , FLT and MDM we,re great.
Blessed are the cheese makers!!
Lol Spence I will never forget out sermon on the mount bloke, very strange....the fact the needed his head tied on with a bit of string was possibly the strangest thing about him :-)
Baggie, thats a very modest account - you omitted the details that you created the crowns of confidence, blew up at least 1/4 of the balloons, got the gavel and did 101 other things that contributed to the success of the weekend. It was fab to meet you and you're not getting away that easily!
A very modest account indeed. Although, so much happened I'm struggling to write everything into my own!
Was great to meet you . . . at last! And, from one of the 'crazies' may I also say a massive 'thank you' for making it what it was . . . you're a gem!

Skeadungenga - The probably now infamous crowns of confidence I think nearly everyone had their photo taken wearing one. They wen't to good homes. To tell the truth I was really chuffed to be asked to help and enjoyed every aspect of that weekend. I really can't wait to see everyone again. It was great to meet everyone i've been chatting to for months
FLT - I know how you feel that day still seems unreal to me despite all the photographic eveidence to the contrary. I just know my good memories I have of that day and all the new friends I have made will stay with me forever. I think I can confidently say the GW convemtion is my happy place/thought
