Celebration

Postby porterm » 04 Mar 2010, 08:12

Hello all

I was just trawling my endless e-mails the other night and found one I had left unopened from Susan Marsh regarding a Dreamland Trust celebration night planned in Margate for 10 December 2009. I was quite annoyed that I had missed this - maybe it was due to the pre-Christmas frenzy or an e-mail account problem.

Anyway, as I don't remember seeing any further comments on here reference this, perhaps someone could reveal a bit more about any happenings, assuming the evening went ahead. (I believe it was to be held at the West Coast Bar)

Martin

PS As I missed the above event I guess the next opportunity to celebrate will be at the upcoing Carlton Cinema "Quadophenia" event in Westgate on Saturday 3 April 2010

The event did happen. It was a nice friendly evening. Food and drink, and drink, and drink, and... did I mention drink?
A great occasion to chat with old friends and meet with new people, such as Jonathan, Jan and Graham.
Finally got the opportunity to discuss with Nick Evans.
Timing couldn't have been better: a couple of days off between jobs and a cheap Euro Tunnel ticket allowed me to spend a couple of sunny (yet cold) days in Margate.
I dream of Dreamland...
