Thanks Victorine, and others, for arranging the meet-up in Lille. It was good to put faces to names and eat, drink and chat together.
Thanks in particular to somewhat-nifty for the whisper in my ear as I was in the Eurostar queue, that Leonard was in fact within a stone's throw away.....and so off I went. Eternally grateful. If she's still on a high, I daren't think what I'm on!
What a wonderful weekend. :D

because of the strike I am stuck for an extra day in the south of france after the brilliant marseilles concert
A good place to be stuck though
it was good to meet other members in marseilles i made the discovery that some of us are hopeless at getting taxis


David
I have lost your phone no. If anyone sees this could they pass on that I have already collected the tickets and have David's ticket to hand, so would be better to meet at the main entrance not the horrid ticket collection corner. Main entrance outside, is a big vertical orange banner to the left I will stand there around 7.15 pm. Anyhow, if you are not around I will go to the ticket collection zone down the windy corner and find you there.

Sorry to others for posting this here!
reading this for the first time on monday evening , but all went well on saturday .thanks
Leonard's work resonates

Like Gilly, I owe somewhat_nifty a HUGE thank you for alerting us to LC being nearyb, enabling us to meet him for a few magical moments. Thank you so much, and maybe see you in Las Vegas!

No problem - glad it worked out and you could still get the train! I hope you make it to Las Vegas - be sure to come along to some of the meetups :D

Thanks very much - I would have gladly missed the train for the chance to meet the Great Man! I will certainly try and come to some of the meetups in Vegas. Looking forward to it already!
