I am shocked and appalled at the lack of London-Hobo pictures in that post Tom.

Jesus.

A lot of people showed up for the meet. I kinda wish I went.

On an unrelated note I still haven't gotten my tablet :( I blame the post office but they don't seem to have forums on which I can rage!

Wow, those UK meets have grown quite a lot. I remember checking out the photos for the second meet back in the summer and thinking that it looked great. Back then there was no more than fifteen people who attended, though this time there was quite a crowd.

I have no idea who to nominate for the Tank Awards, I'll have to think about it some more.

I am looking forward to the fan fiction writing contest. However, I bet that NG meet up was fun. How many people showed up? It looks like almost over 50 people showed up to this event.

I think we peaked at around 65-70 :D

I barely even talked to some people more than a line or two, and still was always chatting.

You mean he wasn't being his usual random GrandfatherClock self in a thread in VG forums and he does actually write for a magazine?

That would be great, if I hadn't decided to put a Newgrounds sticker on my face. You can see me North-West of Tom...

We could always photoshop your O Face on there. I'd post the picture but it's too disturbing.

It's a child friendly affair. There were some 13 year olds there.

It was the best meet yet, best London meet yet atleast. Cheers for coming over Tom & the staff, Poozy, Luis, Andrea, Nogfish, Hans, Aaron, Tim, Luca. Deary me I don't remember who else flew in right now.

Cheers to everybody who got a coach, or a train, or hitch'd it, Kes, James, Mark, BBM, Bez, Liam, Scuzz, Harry, Tom, Dim, Kayn etttcc.

I'm already contributing with an awesome prize, but some people feel that the prizes lack a material component.

Help us Tommy Wan Fulponi, you're our only hope. =(

That actually sounds like a decent idea. If I had been to the meet then I definitely would do one, but it might seem quite strange for someone who didn't even attend the meet to be making Flashes about it.

It certainly looks like it. So many people in the picture... if only I could have gone!

Great! Anyway, it's nice to see a new post on the front page after all that time on London.
