Funny moment earlier related to this, told my mum I was going to a meet up with some fellow Boards of Canada fans to listen to music and hang out.. I think she thought I was joining a cult or something ha.

First time I met Twoist was the morning after the Royal Wedding (Kate and William). Me and the wife were visiting friends for a BBQ and to watch it on the TV. I get asked what I'm doing the following day and before I can answer, Mrs Mexicola announces: 'He's meeting a man off the internet...'

Twoist still dines out on that story I believe :wink:

Made me chuckle :lol:

There is no good way of saying you're meeting up with friends from the net, and have it not sound like a 70s public information video for kids and the danger of strangers.

I'm so happy to be there in spirit. One day I'll make this, even if it's the fifteenth annual meetup and we're ALL posting in the Twoism Father's group. Not just Mexi. :)

It would be an honor to attend! :D I can represent the American contingent since next year's meet would fall on the 4th of July (a little birdy told me so lol). Are you asking me to justify animal cruelty for the sake of Twoism? SOLD! :P
