Sorry yes I did leave you off. At that meal/pub were:

Daniel
wintonian
yorkie
Mojo
Peter Mugridge
island

I cannot remember if anyone else was present.

How on earth can you remember that?

I think this was the one in the spoons at Victoria wasn't it?

I can't remember the usernames (or real ones for that matter) of half the people I have met, as such I won't embarrass myself or let anyone feel neglected by nameing the ones I can remember.

I knew I got that 'A' in the wrong place :lol:, for people who are confused about this seemingly random post, check my post about on the first page second from bottom.

Anyone from the Mid Hants still on this forum, I already know about you ralphchadkirk.

I've met too many members to make a list, otherwise you would be scrolling down for a long time .... To give you an indication of how big the list would be, look at Mojo's list above, then double it, and add on another 20 or so names ....

I don't even have to go on a forum meetto find new members, as I've randomly met a few people on TPE services through Scunthorpe!

Do you mean MikeWh on the Zone 1 Challenge?

Obviously I don't mean much to you as you have conveniently forgotten me. ;)

All I can say is that if you're 16 and under stay well away. Most of the other people I have met will back me up as well as well as some people on this forum.

Other than him I have found the majority of the users on this forum to be friendly but arguementative at the same time. A bit like a mad uncle.
I still want to go on Yorkie's cycling trips but I need to get round to buying a new bike. Anyone else been on these trips?

I always think it must be very odd finding that someone you just bump into is someone you know over the inter Net. it's rather like that with people you follow on youTube; you see a video of, say, a particular special, and you realise that you were in exactly the same place, a little further over. In fact, I know that there's at least 2 or 3 videos that I do actually appear in, momentarily.

If you drive XC HSTs I might have done. Living in WY and having business to do in the Midlands and SW it's extremely easy for me to use XC's services and never ride on Vomiters :)

Pretty high potential that a fair few forum members will have. I haven't knowingly but having used XC (and VXC) for about four years, there is potential I have at some point

I often wonder if I have been on a train or station with other members and not realised it

Saying that I think I may have spotted heart-of-wessex at Freshford yesterday waiting for the Royal Scot tour.

If he's that bad, why hasn't someone got the Police involved?

You lucky fella: I'm in the West Midlands and recently nine times out of ten I'll be travelling in the opposite direction to the dominant direction of flow of the XC HSTs :(

I've met comparatively few members of this forum:
will1337
142094
Mojo
yorkie
IanXC
yorksrob
metrocammell
theblackwatch
are the ones that ring a few bells.

I'm pretty sure that I've also met a couple of other forum members without realising it at the time, and I have definitely been on the same train as other forum members as well in the past, though I've never found out until afterwards. This happened most recently on Tuesday. Seems to be on the Wrexham and Shropshire (well, formerly) stock more often than not for some reason.

Not knowingly. Although it would appear that I have been in the same place as other forum members on many occasions, in particular during special events at preserved railways.
