Gathering

I organised a gathering of work colleagues tonight, which had the potential to be huge, but considering the time of year (colds, exhaustion, children's carol concerts, other Christmas dos, etc.) it was only a small meeting of folk. It was fantastic to catch up with those who came along, some of whom I hadn't caught up with for a few years. There were plenty of good stories.

Being the organiser, I stayed till the end (I tend to do this anyway since I like good banter) and caught the night bus home. Before I left the pub, I glanced at the clock and saw that it was only moments until blipnight, hence the emergency blip.
