And the sausages and mash were excellent. And the single-malt sampling -- better still, to the best of my recollection.

You did not specify if you were in the half that ate the haggis, and if you were, did you enjoy it ? Speak soon. John – Sounds interesting.

I think the amount of events crammed into that 3 week block really tax everyone out. Possibly better timing of events next year would help things a long. http://www.cse.scitech.ac.uk/disco/mew18/index.html There was also the Daresbury MEW going on that week down in Runcorn, and SC was the week before.

We certainly learnt a lot from your presence and I'm glad that you found it useful and enjoyable. We have run events with the Condor guys before but this is the first time that we've broadened this to include HTC in general. There is talk of repeating this next year and we would certainly like to broaden participation. If you (or any of your readers) have any suggestions, please let us know. I think the participants learnt a lot from the hands-on day in particular. Being able to compare Digipede and Condor and learn their relative strengths was very useful. I know people were impressed with the ease of writing application for .NET in Digipede. Also, our training team is keen to pursue the idea of an HTC patterns library. In conclusion, it was good to meet you and we valued your participation highly. Please keep in touch. Dave Berry. John,
