Guest Confucious Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Just checked, I need to get the 11:12 to Victoria then the No 38 bus. Buses are so much more civilised than the tube :)
Guest Disco Stu Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 I might get there before Pondrew if Virgin can get me out of Rugby. They're not trying very hard today though.
Guest RazorD Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Well, i made it :) I'm posting this from the apple store (hate the standard mac keyboard!) 12 o clock now, ill start walking down to the building in a minute i think ;)
Guest Pondrew Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 humph. You guys have all the fun. :cry: I'm stuck here at work. Wonder if the gadgets will still be working when I arrive... didn't someone kill the MPX100 last year?!
Guest nedge2k Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 nah i killed the MPx300 the time before :)
Guest Pondrew Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Well, my day's gone from bad to worse. Still stuck at work and was meant to finish half an hour ago ;) The funniest thing is a couple of hours ago I thought I'd be able to get away early... fat chance. If I didn't make it for the end I want you all to know that I'm never going to forgive you! :twisted: :)
Guest dolphinsmile Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 (edited) Thanks for a fun and informative time. Although I arrived late and missed out on the Orange goodie bag (They gave me an Orange football to make up for it). I met some charming people and had a go on the SPV M5000. Unfortunately I had to baby sit otherwise I would have hit the pub with all the others. What a shame someone tainted the event by stealing the c550. Thanks again. PS I wanted to ask if and when modaco will do a podcast? Just Remembered about the man I met from PDA he didn’t have a name badge and I didn’t get around to asking. We struck a conversation about flux challenge my favourite game and he mentioned that Flux challenge 2 was in the works, as the quiz was in full swing I’m lacking further information.

Guest www.msmobiles.com Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 I wish that I was there! anyway: could participants upload photos to flickr.com and tag them with "modaco" tag ?
Guest RazorD Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 (edited) I wish that I was there! anyway: could participants upload photos to flickr.com and tag them with "modaco" tag ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There was one guy who i think was the offical photographer, or something ;) I didnt notice anyone else with a camera (apart from all the camera phones, of course :() Was a great day (even if Paul did say im a trouble maker! :(, and i'm still desperately trying to figure out how!), and i got a cool orange football to play with now. I was sooo tempted to start shouting "willllllll" (did anyone used to watch TFI friday? :D) during the pub quiz, (even if it was a fix!). Thanks to everyone there ;) it was a super day, hopefully ill be able to make the winter event (if its in birmingham, i'll definately be able too - being in aberystwyth :D) Shame i couldnt stay for the pub. That was partly cause i was tired and partly cause i wanted to get back (and hey, im just in time for the x-factor). Did beersoft manage to not get kicked out? ;) Finally! Thanks to Chris (Mono) for organising the whole thing. You did a fantastic job (even if the pizza was cold :)) -Raz (Liam) P.S The M5000 rocks! Edited August 20, 2005 by RazorD
Guest RazorD Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 (edited) Oh! and for those of you who knew about my split-at-the-bottom orange bag.. It made it hope, before finally giving way and dropping everything on the floor outside my house ;) I heard a rumour there was a C600 there too, was that true? :) And, if it was, what HTC device is it? Edited August 20, 2005 by RazorD
Guest JohnD Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Hahahahhahahaa I never saw any of the new phones >_<
Guest uzi_999 Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 RazorD - i remember your bag split at the bottom - it was because you stuffed the football into it!! the photographer was james/jlowap's brother!!!

But, its ok! My mummys going to mend it for meee! :)
Guest casper508 Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Another great event organised by Orange and MS and ofcourse the efforts of Chris. Had a great day, met some nice people. Shame the C550 got nicked and am having serious doubts about the XBOX raffle. Its the 2nd time Will. :) Cas
Guest dazza12 Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 A big thanks to Mono for a good day, and to Modaco in general. Got to meet several of you, and hope to come to the next one. Hoping it's a bit closer to home, anyone up for a meet in Bristol? I do hope the C550 thief gets what's coming to them, was really looking forward to winning that one!
Guest keni Posted August 20, 2005 Report Posted August 20, 2005 Good event and fun had by all I feel... Shame about the C550 not good, leaves a bad taste in mouth really... O and I forgot my goodie bag which I'm annoyed about as I really wanted the TV shirt... They were great this time too :@
