March 22, 201510 yr comment_205734 Just got home! Thanks Peaj and everyone else for a great day EVEN THOUGH PAIGE JUMPED ON MY FOOT, BREAKING THE THORPELAW I don't get to come to many meets, but when I do, it's really great that everyone acts as if they've seen you yesterday and is your best friend. That's great. Who one spooning though, as I had to leave before the results
March 22, 201510 yr comment_205739 Another fantastic TPM meet. They all just seem to get bigger and better! Despite arriving nearly 3 hours late, had a great day and was nice seeing everyone again, plus lots of new faces (over 25 attended the Peaj of the day). Inferno pizza was very good except the slightly slow service. The plates were fine. The spooning game was even more competitive than last time (maybe too competitive) as lots of pushing, pulling etc happened, got a bit violent at times, but the end result was worthwhile (I didn't partake this year due to lateness). Highlights for me also included 3 rides in a row on Swam without leaving my seat & depth charge race with Peaj, Adam & Phill. Despite vortex, Detty & Slammer being down plus no Caroulsel and 1 train Colossus, had a great day and cant wait til Cheessington meet (which I hope I can make).
March 22, 201510 yr comment_205742 Another fantastic TPM meet. They all just seem to get bigger and better and more aggressive! Fixed that for you. (#spooningantics)
March 22, 201510 yr comment_205743 We measured the plates for you guys and their surface area is well over 350cm sq. This is plenty of space, and after stacking cant fit up to 6 slices of pizza! In just 2 goes to the buffet thats 1 and a half pizzas. Whats the fuss?! Yeah it was great fun today guys, I was well tired and fell asleep on the way home missing my bus, but hey ho got home in the end. Probably won't see me for a little while, but I'll try come to some more meets later in the year. PS Ryan sorry for throwing so many sweets but I hope they were as yummy as the yummy ones from the bowling alley. PPS. Gotta ask how was teh warm choclety milk? Again???

March 22, 201510 yr comment_205747 Choclety milk made my day. p.s you make the best hot choclety milk I told ryan this on the train I am upset I need more milk
March 22, 201510 yr comment_205748 ^^ I kind of established that the point of the 'smaller' plates is to stop people trying to fill them to potentially not eat them. Thus reducing wastage as people will tend to get what they'll really eat. Also, sorry Luke. It was basically Peaj's fault though.

March 23, 201510 yr comment_205754 Haha yes - that is the amazing panoramic photo I got! Started the day with a Loggers selfie: Great meet, was good seeing everyone again and meeting some new faces Although I feel like I wasn't as/couldn't be as social because of Spooning! Can't trust anyone It was far more violent than last year! I was doing so well, even after Peaj cracked my spoon in X...then the violence that I'd managed to avoid turned towards me in the Rush queue, blood was drawn thanks to Adam Then I was tragically violated by Peaj and Jack While everyone else stood and laughed! Will be having traumatic flashbacks for a while Oh and then after that, I was left to sit on my own like a lemon on Swarm, Stealth and Fish. Love you all too But it's ok. I have my complimentary spoons

March 23, 201510 yr comment_205761 I do have to say I am happy to have dropped my spoon first, at least all my fingers are still intact...
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205766 Worthy Mentions go to Kinnaird who battled like a trooper & Coasterdude who shaped his broken spoon into a knife Behold! Possibly the most lethal item to be allowed in a theme park: Rest In (tiny) Pieces!
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205767 I had a great day yesterday! Had great fun, even if blood was drawn from me due to spooning! *glares at Peaj for that* Can't wait to make it to another meet! Thanks for a great day everyone, was lovely meeting you all again, and seeing some new faces that I hadn't met before!
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205784 And the best part is, quite a lot of the action was caught on video (which a Creaky member will edit together in the next week or so).Looking forward to seeing the video, Matt!
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205793 I'm looking forward to seeing me pelted with everyone's bags! Bagman Begins.
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205794 Guess I better make a 'proper' post or something. It was genuinely a lovely day, and I actually enjoyed seeing and meeting new people! Since my first meet last year I feel much more relaxed around everyone and I really look forward to them! Thanks to James for... Violating me and cutting my hand and KILLING my spoon in a single queue Also thanks to other James for forgetting about your spoon so the one Ryan destroyed could be replaced! Thank you to Peaj for organising it as usual and for getting me on Saw properly!
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205795 Annoyed I missed this, was stuck in a presentation thing at work Sounds like it was really good. Will see most of you at Chessie meet I guess
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205796 I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures, especially the group one when Paige unwillingly had to be in the photo due to a security guard.
March 23, 201510 yr comment_205797 I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures, especially the group one when Paige unwillingly had to be in the photo due to a security guard. I felt so deflated
March 24, 201510 yr comment_205863 Group photo from the morning! (apologises to Mr Fish, who was cut out of this photo, and appeared in the other one, which unfortunately is way too blurry on my behalf )
