Come in Number 10... your time is up!

cheers all,

@furtfranker obviously understand, best wishes of course. i'll be back for a weekend visit pretty soon so hopefully catch up with you then..

@gen i'll do my best eh!!

Have a good party tonight Number 10. Good luck with your new duties in Geneva!!

Well, what can i say?

It certainly went with a bang that's for sure!!
I think everyone had a good time, i know i did, and it was a pretty emotional evening for me I have to say. Cheers to everyone who came to give me a send off !! And apologies if i was a little underperforming in the 'mingling' stakes.. to be quite honest I was just pretty overwhelmed by the number of people that showed and was quite taken a back by all the nice words and wishes. (Equally I think the staff at Carre Bar were pretty overwhelmed too! I don't think they quite knew what had hit them when 40-odd of us converged on them demanding Daquiris and Mai Tais aplenty !!)

I really am blessed with having some really amazing friends here in FFM, and i'll be back to say Hi very soon indeed !!

Yes it was a good evening and best of luck Alan in your new job! You'll be missed - come back soon!

Here's the photos that I took, hope you all enjoy them!
Alan's leaving do
If anyone else has any piccies then pls send me them and I'll post them into the same album.

If you were still in Frankfurt at 7pm Sunday, what time did you get to Geneva?!

I just spoke to N10 and it was about 2am when he finally got there!

I think it was just after 7 when he came to deposit stuff in my cellar and he was just about to leave then.

I spent most of yesterday recovering

Hmm i felt as rough as a badger's arse yesterday too.

Somehow managed to go for a run up the Neroberg yesterday evening after feeling guilty for spending the day sleeping.

Made myself the perfect hangover busting fusion cuisine...cevapcici with pilau rice and HP sauce! I should open a restaurant

Cannot believe you didn't invite us over for dinner

Cannot believe you didn't invite us over for dinner

I've only got 2 chairs
Would have to dig out my camping seats to use as emergency chairs

Well it was 3am when i got my head down here this morning...
my chauffer got lost which added a good hour onto the journey... plus we were nearly two hours late leaving ffm anyway!!
But i'm here now, all is cool !! I have to say it's really beautiful here, already smitten with the place!

Cheers for the pics billy, some excellent ones there...

Glad you've "landed" ok :-)
