So, MNHQ, bedecked in LKBennett (and Boden for the plebs) are all out stuffing pizza and Bolly, half of the posters and hangers-on are there too: what mischief shall we get up to while they're away?

[WilfSell]

Because I bet they've just left BigTech in charge. Or he/she'll be checking in every once in a while, a bit pished and lairy.

So we can DO. WHAT. WE. LIKE. while the Leaders party.

My shoes are on there! Can imagine the photographer - 'hmmm this all gets steadily worse from the knee up'

er yes
i had been at balrdy work all day - so no time, then on a train.
hey ho
but you know it was the laughter that was such fun and the bonhomie
it was so so friendly. no standing around eyeing each other tup.

Thank goodness there was no tupping.

lol
do oyu not agree BIWI?

Sarah Brown is amazingly gorgeous.

The rest of you are old dumper-trucks, tbh.

rofl lenin. And you a married woman.

I shocked Lenin with my tup talk

My tup has bigger balls than all of you. Eye that up!

Agree, No1. It was lovely. Definitely lots of bonhomie.

And champagne.

The two often go together, no?

I love parties. I haven't been to a good party for ages.

BecauseImWorthIt...did I say it ws lovely to meet you ( the thread is so long I can't remember what I've put!) but it was.

Everyone was really funny and charming. I wish I had muscled in to speak to Justin Webb, but I enjoyed telling teh Editor of the Radio Times how my DH religiously circles all the programmes he wants to watch /record!

Think I may be zebra dress woman - but not alas zebra shoes...shame . I went instead for the WRONG size shoe and had to stuff not one but two insoles in them and I still slopped around like a 6 year old in her Mum's high heels.

LOOK! FINBAR HAS STOPPED LURKING!

YAY! HAve come out!!!

erm, hello......
thought I ought to pop by and add to this, as I was VERY lucky to be there :D

I was Buzzingnoise's +1. One of the ones who sat at the table at the front, ALL night, and let the champagne come to us. There are tons of lovely photos of the back of my head.. sigh, I knew I needed new straighteners!

Anyway, wanted to say a quick hello and thank you to all the lovely people I met (and no doubt bored witless, I don't get out much), erm Applesinmypocket, bumperlicious, morningpaper ( i did enjoy the hair flicking and lots of other people whom I have no clue who they were..sorry

There are NO PICTURES of the hair flicking! Perhaps when we are laughing we look like a field of horses chewing treacle?

Hi - and well done on getting a seat - with my stupid shoes I wish I had!

Hello Mettle! it was lovely meeting you. My DD says hello too. Thanks for letting us sit with you - we had a right laugh over the sushi etc Wish we could do it all over again!

I think but virtue of the fact there are about 15 photos of the back of my head, and not one of my face, I can safely saw I do indeed look like a horse chewing treacle when I laugh!

Hello Finbar! Wilkommen. Et bienvenue. Welcome.

Mettle, at least the photographer didn't think your FEET were the best thing about you like she did me

Hello Onebat - lovely to meet you too. I twas all a bit of a blur wasn't it?
Am very gingerly posting again .

hehe, well if you will wear such fabulous shoes...

did I say goodbye? I remember suddenly realising the time, and when my last train was leaving, and kind of flying out of Pizza Express, wondering where the heck I was and having to hail a cab as I had no clue!

Finbar - you look very glam and groomed.

In fact, far too stylish to be friends with that unstylish Cod woman. So ditch her and become best mates with us!

And I note that you are holding your champagne glass correctly- by the stem.
Your dodgy mate (who you can't take anywhere - I mean imagine telling the Prime Minsiter to "Think Fish"! - sheesh!!) doesn't hold it properly. Common as muck that fish is.
