What should have been.....

We'll never know, especially as the overlords deemed it appropriate to not bother replying to my query as to why this event in it's original format couldn't take place, ticket reference {1273155} (11th Jan 2022) in case anyone is interested.

Rude.

What you got instead...

6000 it's just a number right?

We've been trying to mount this event for a significant milestone now for nearly 2 years, so here is my last ditch attempt to get it out for our 6000th (again)

History.

August 2020 - 4000 milestone - cancelled thanks to COVID, we instead spent time walking around woodland in the rain looking for virutual lab points, dull.

May 2021 - 5000 milestone - You guessed it, COVID again, instead we marked it by claiming another virtual marker by doing some gardening, also also quite dull.

January 2022 - 6000 milestone (take 1) - Killed by GCHQ for not being 'eventy' enough, despite dozens and dozens of similar events taking place around the wold in recent times, rude.

So here we are, lets try 6000 (take2) again, turn up in the middle of a big grassy area, say hello,talk about plastic pots,  go home. This is what folks want from events apparently, so this is what you're getting. Simple.

What to expect.

A big open space early in the morning.

Same old chat you get at every event.

What not to expect.

Prizes to be won.

Drinks to be drunk.

Cakes to be eaten.

No fun of any kind.

See you on the day, bright and early, bring a party hat if that's your thing.
