It doesn't always go right
"Rob (Holdstock - guest) phoned at about 4:30pm to say they'd arrived at the Thistle, but where was I? Hah! I assured Rob I'd be there within 30-45 minutes. But in that time we only moved about 200 yards... The taxi that had picked me up at 3:15 finally dropped me in New Street at exactly 7:45pm! ... Our New Zealand member, Mike, had travelled from Coventry by train without any problems. William had walked in to the city...So it was Rob, Sarah (Rob's Wife), Mike, William and myself. A quick count of hands and the decision to stay in the bar was unanimous." (newsletter March 2007) Rog Peyton's description of a meeting affected by snow. I remember him arriving somewhat later than that.
