Tonight's the night, the Scottish bloggers** decided to meet up.
I'm no stranger to that strange quirk of turning up in locations to meet people who you have no other contact with except through the power of the world wide web. Indeed I travelled to London in the spring of 2000 to meet 41*** other members of the Hitchhikers Guide to Galaxy website. Later that year at a Scottish version (with guest from Northern Ireland, and another from North England) I turned up, at least knowing three of the others from London and ended up meeting someone that day who dragged me across to Scotland and who I spent 5 years with. (Disclaimer: I'm not using this meet as a dating opportunity somebody
