Enter, stage left, the infamous hibernating one.
I just thought I'd stop by to say that, unusually for me, this year I doubt I will be able to attend. My reasons for this, in descending order of importance are:
1. I'm far, far, far, far, far too busy at work and I'm already working weekends on a regular basis. It transpires that my first year of being a partner of a law firm has proven much more successful than my business plan predicted - but with the obvious downside that I don't have "a life" at the moment. I can't give up a weekend to come to the Con regrettably;
2. if I did come up to the Con, my girlfriend probably wouldn't be too amused as she sees very little of me at the mo as it is;
3. the journey up last year was a nightmare which I haven't forgotten sadly;
4. I've been too busy at work to stay in touch with the community this year or to do any serious coding so I'd spend the whole Con saying: "you what?" to people, except Lee, to whom I'd be saying: "that's not a feature - it's a bug!"; and
5. goto 1.
Oh dear, I seem to have just created an infinite loop.
Anyhoo, I wish all the attendees my best and hope to make it next year.
PS: I also think there should be a coding compo at these Cons. The coding compos that Nick arranged for the Chichester Cons were great fun.
