Not been on here for over 2 years...! I was at Manchester Arena when the bomb went off. I work there as event crew and we were backstage waiting for the show to finish when it happened.

30 Year Birthday Party
Sounds interesting. We've discussed having a SF meetup in the past on here, but it never came to anything, so this may be the ideal opportunity for some of us on here to meet in person.[Happosai]
