Sorry, I realised after I'd posted it. I'm amazed I remembered it, my memory is shocking. And you definitely look more of an Andrew than an Andy, it won't happen again

That remark may be tongue in cheek but it's actually a great idea! It'd save considerable time at any meet and worn all day would be a constant reminder.

There's nothing more embarrassing than saying "Excuse me, what was your name again?" to someone you've only just been introduced to earlier that day.

I wasn't at the annual meet but didn't Jim have name badges made? I may have just imagined that mind.

It was nice to meet everyone who came, Neil thanks for organising.
Oli did you get your auxiliary heater working in the end?
