Gentlemen & ladies,
It was nice to see our forum benefactor Ed again over the weekend as he had been in a Python Conference in Dublin and managed to get over to England in order to see the Manchester City/Chelsea football (Soccer) game yesterday despite all the odds of weather being stacked against him with this "Beast from the East" set of bad weather that has beset us Brits for the last week,.
As I made Ed an honorary Man City supporter when I last saw him a the VFP conference in Atlanta in 2007 it was also nice that our team secured a win. It was a good game, only let down by the fact that our tickets were in the area reserved for the Chelsea supporters but it was all good friendly banter! Ed wasn't brave enough to wear his light blue and white scarf during the game but it came out once the game was over!
Also lovely to see Linda, his wife who also attended the game.
I didn't have time to extend our thanks for him continuing to support the Profox list here despite the fact that he is no longer doing any VFP work, but I am sure you all extend my thanks to him.
If we'd got chatting about things VFP we'd have broken into a few more bottles of wine over the Italian meal we all had after the game and he'd have had difficulty getting his early flight at 8:00am for onward transit back home.
Great to see you again Ed!!
Dave Crozier
