Wots this wots this??Mini Mini bud on a mound of teacayks??? can only mean one thing, a hugely disrupted train journey to FOQ 2019!! the fingers in the background belong to the lovely Ruth who navigated us through at least 4 train changes after our original one got cancelled and who soothed me while i was having a nervous breakdown when i got contacted about something at work going pear shaped :-)

The gin bar, what can i say?? just an amazing game changer for this years FOQ! and despite rumours no it wasnt sponsored by me!!
Whats all going on here then? We had arranged to meet at the gin bar at 4.30, and bagged some empty chairs at a table where two other ladies were sitting (i did ask!) i got there early, gradually folks started arriving and the two ladies moved out a bit, out a bit more, out a bit more. I said we should get a group photo and one of the ladies said she would take it and made a joke about us shoving them out of the table. At that point Mary Goffin screamed "ITS DEBBIE SHORE!!!!" we all looked properly at the lady and blow me it was!!! how super was she! such a sport and good laugh and genuinely lovely lady.
And here she is!
Mini mini Bud, guardian of the gin!
