Sussex Geek Dinner

October 9th, 2005 · 1 Comment · Blogging, General

Wednesday last I attended my first Sussex Geek Dinner. I’ll never be a proper blogger, because it’s taken me four days to record the fact. Simon, on the other hand, knows how this stuff is meant to work: he went home and updated his blog within about an hour of us vacating the venue.

I don’t have much to add to Simon’s account - it was indeed a very enjoyable evening. Many thanks to Simon for coordinating, and Hugh MacLeod for sponsoring by supplying the very pleasant Stormhoek rosé.

It’s also worth mentioning the venue. The Highlands pub in Uckfield, East Sussex offered very good food at outstanding value, and allowed us to bring our own wine (the aforementioned Stormhoek) without charging corkage. Recommended!

    Well, if the organiser of a geek dinner isn’t a proper geek, then it’s a poor show! Glad you enjoyed it too.
