| *** fuzzyman has joined #europython | 13:19 | |
| ambv | matti: hey man, where have you been? | 13:20 |
| ambv | fuzzyman: hello Michael, packed up already? | 13:20 |
| fuzzyman | ambv: no | 13:21 |
| matti | ambv: I've busy. How are you? | 13:21 |
| matti | ambv: How was the G. thing? | 13:21 |
| ambv | matti: the G spot does not exist. | 13:22 |
| ambv | It's official. | 13:22 |
| matti | LOL | 13:22 |
| ambv | matti: so, come round and see us on EuroPython. | 13:22 |
| ambv | we'll be in Birmingham the whole week. | 13:23 |
| matti | Hm. | 13:24 |
| fuzzyman | ambv: not yet | 13:26 |
| fuzzyman | ambv: I'm arriving tomorrow evening | 13:26 |
| fuzzyman | ambv: tonight I have a practise run through of my talks with a couple of the locals here | 13:26 |
| ambv | we (myself and TheSheep) have our place in 4 hours | 13:26 |
| ambv | fuzzyman: cool idea, I'll practise mine at the venue ;) | 13:27 |
| ambv | *have our plane | 13:27 |
| fuzzyman | cool | 13:27 |

| ambv | matti: thanks but hey, consider joining us. | 14:33 |
| matti | I wish, but unfortunately I do not have the time. | 14:34 |

| *** lvh has joined #europython | 18:43 | |
| lvh | Okay, panic time! Are you people absolutely sure etap rooms hold three? | 18:43 |
| lvh | The etap website disagrees | 18:44 |
| lvh | http://www.etaphotel.com/gb/discovering-etap-hotel/hotel-room.shtml | 18:44 |
| lvh | (Look at the UK thing specifically) | 18:45 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: hmm... you couldn't have got three in the rooms in the etap I've been in | 19:12 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: but they may have bigger rooms | 19:13 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: aha | 19:33 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: aha? | 19:33 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: my europython registration says 3 | 19:33 |
| lvh | that's why im worried | 19:33 |
| fuzzyman | fuzzyman: are you intending to share a room with 2 other people? | 19:33 |
| lvh | Yes. | 19:33 |
| lvh | I wasn't aware there was more than one Etap in Birmingham | 19:34 |
| fuzzyman | right | 19:35 |
| fuzzyman | will be good to meet you | 19:35 |
| fuzzyman | who are you sharing with? | 19:35 |
| lvh | stephen bethard and francois beerten | 19:36 |
| lvh | two people I haven't met | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | I know stephen | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | he is a very good guy | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | and I'm glad he is coming | 19:36 |
| lvh | (I build tracking devices for a living and practice three martial arts, I'm not very scared of stuff being stolen :-p) | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | last time I spoke to him he didn't think he could come | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: hah :-) | 19:36 |
| fuzzyman | I don't know francois | 19:36 |
| lvh | Beerten is a belgian name | 19:37 |
| lvh | (also somewhat given away by the .be email address) | 19:37 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: You're in the Etap now too? | 19:37 |
| fuzzyman | no - I booked a room in a traellodge | 19:37 |
| fuzzyman | they had a special deal a while ago | 19:37 |
| fuzzyman | *travelodge | 19:37 |
| fuzzyman | not far from the centre - a bit closer than the etap (which is not very far) | 19:38 |
| ahall | first python conference here, looking forward to it | 19:38 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: Yeah, I looked it up and etap is right down the corner | 19:38 |
| fuzzyman | ahall: cool - it should be good fun | 19:38 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: yeah - it's an annoying walk first thing in the morning but not very far :-) | 19:39 |
| lvh | this time next year it'll hopefully be a business expense | 19:39 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: I'm one of those crazy people that runs a few miles every day anyway | 19:39 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: oh right, who will you be working for? | 19:39 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: myself | 19:39 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: haha - you madman ;-) | 19:39 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: ah, nice | 19:39 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: python contracting / consulting ? | 19:39 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: right now we do the tracking device thing but mgmt came in and screwed everything up | 19:39 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: :-( | 19:39 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: so now we're building something that takes gps + altimeter + speedo + "wind sensors" into account into order to travel towards something with a heat signature | 19:40 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: we're not supposed to know what we're building | 19:40 |
| lvh | but I can't think of many peaceful applications for that technology | 19:40 |
| lvh | which is why I'm getting out :-) | 19:41 |
| fuzzyman | right | 19:41 |
| fuzzyman | I remember you saying something about that | 19:41 |
| lvh | fuzzyman: the first clue was that the new mgmt hired a nephew | 19:41 |
| fuzzyman | yeah, must make you uncomfortable | 19:41 |
| fuzzyman | hehe | 19:41 |
| lvh | 18, no education, didn't know latitude from longitude | 19:41 |
| fuzzyman | bad sign | 19:41 |
| lvh | but he was going to consult us | 19:42 |
| lvh | (we felt very consulted) | 19:42 |
| fuzzyman | do you have any potential customers as an "independent" yet? | 19:42 |
| lvh | http://www.nikkanen.org/dilbert/Insult.jpg | 19:42 |
| lvh | sort of! | 19:42 |
| fuzzyman | hehe | 19:42 |
| fuzzyman | sort of is a good start | 19:43 |
| lvh | we've got a few, thankfully they all use more or less the same technology | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | "we" - you are going to take some of your colleagues with you? | 19:43 |
| lvh | so I can build one and reuse 80% of it if it crashes and burns | 19:43 |
| lvh | hopefully | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | hehe - nice | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | sounds good | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | good luckk | 19:43 |
| lvh | the guys i work with are twice my ages | 19:43 |
| lvh | *age | 19:43 |
| lvh | and have a family with kids | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | you can tell me all about it when you buy me a beer ;-) | 19:43 |
| lvh | so they're not as likely to take insane risks as i am | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | right | 19:43 |
| lvh | this sounds like an intreesting prospect | 19:43 |
| lvh | although the odds of me drinking uk beer are tiny | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | now I have a mortgage I am a bit more risk averse... | 19:43 |
| lvh | im belgian | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | no kids yet | 19:43 |
| fuzzyman | real UK ale is very good | 19:44 |
| lvh | (uk beer is like a canoe and all that) | 19:44 |
| fuzzyman | really? | 19:44 |
| lvh | well, I am a scientist, such things are really up to empirical measure | 19:44 |
| fuzzyman | I thought UK ale was even more renowned than belgian beer | 19:44 |
| lvh | maybe in the uk | 19:44 |
| fuzzyman | we have thousands of different ales | 19:44 |
| fuzzyman | you must try the wellington | 19:45 |
| lvh | trying all of them is going to be hard | 19:45 |
| lvh | I have an idea | 19:45 |
| lvh | you tell me what to order | 19:45 |
| fuzzyman | (the real ale pub in birmingham - not a type of beer) | 19:45 |
| lvh | I'll bring money | 19:45 |
| fuzzyman | lvh: not me - but others there | 19:45 |
| lvh | that works too | 19:45 |
| lvh | the thing I love about europython is that I'm not there yet and I already have something to do for every night :-p | 19:46 |
| fuzzyman | hehe | 19:46 |
| fuzzyman | plans are made to be broken too | 19:46 |
| fuzzyman | I'm trying *not* to make too many plans but it is hard... | 19:47 |
| lvh | hey, there's three people insisting their company pays my dinner | 19:48 |
| lvh | I'm inclined to agree | 19:48 |
| ahall | hard not to! | 19:49 |

| lvh | oh for the panickers | 21:58 |
| lvh | no worries | 21:58 |
| lvh | i phoned the hotel and the website is wrong | 21:58 |
| lvh | they most definitely have triples | 21:58 |
| lvh | which == double + duvet | 21:58 |
| lvh | is there anyone I can contact for social stuff on the evening of the 18th? (sunday) | 22:18 |

| lvh | (PM's are okay if you won't admit in public you're a drunken party animal) | 22:28 |
| ahall | lvh: i'm arriving on the sunday, different hotel though and i don't drink! But up for the pub anyway | 22:30 |
| lvh | ahall: aha | 22:33 |
| lvh | I'm arriving on sunday too | 22:33 |
| lvh | sharing room with someone that comes in at 21:something, but hopefully the hotel wont be dicks about giving him a key | 22:34 |
| ahall | that shouldn't be a problem | 22:34 |
| lvh | I occasionally don't drink | 22:35 |
| lvh | sometimes even for extended periods of time! | 22:35 |
