Oct 1: Miracle DBF - Wrap-up

Why you should never let your host handle your registration (and no, the company name is not real)


Still, at least deciding I was American got me into the best house and far enough from the Party House to get some sleep occassionally ;-)

Julian Dyke and I are waiting for our taxi to the train station for the train up to Copenhagen, so this might be brief.

It's been a hell of a conference and a pretty good geek holiday too. I've met quite a few interesting and warm people - here's a bunch of them outside the party house ...

We've been treated to fine food and endless quantities of free alcohol. Oh, and there were some interesting presentations too ;-)

This morning I saw the latest example of how those Miracle chaps can just get a bunch of people on to a problem and make it disappear. In this case, it was the cleaning up of the Party House. I'm so annoyed with myself that I didn't take before and after shots! Suffice to say, there were many many beer bottles. Here's Dan FInk putting just one case of empties in the back of the trailer that's been used to transport everything non-human (including Derek Junior at one stage)

And if there's going to be beers, you *definitely* need one of these.

Time to dash off to the airport but there might be some more DBF blogs to come. Frankly, there's probably enough material for a few weeks!
