Hi Perry,
Didn't know you were there on the night, would have been good to meet you in person (it was dark, wasn't it?)
Yes, sorry missed you, but dark is probably best for those sorts of occasions. I was at a small table with two other blokes in about the middle of the floor. Not that that helps much now I guess.
