Instead of trying to accurately describe a day at the GBBF, I thought it
easier to list the people I can remember meeting. The GBBF is not only the best
place in the UK to sample great beer it is also a collection of the loveliest
people in the UK. After meeting the following perhaps it was no surprise that I
fell asleep on the 18:06 from Paddington and nearly missed my stop. It was great to see you and we must do
it all again next year!

Great to see you too - and you're right, that mix of people is unique.
WOW that's hell of a mix, I wish I'd met some of those...the whole day was a massive blur...that will serve me right for starting the day with stupid strong IPA's full of chilli...
