And so Willard insisted I took him to the Flyertalk meet that MoreChampagneSir? was organising in London. Of course, to do this, Willard had to come into the office with me, so I thought I might as well put him to work! Actually, he did a better job on the conference call than I usually do, and was certainly better at keeping quiet!

Willard makes a bee-line for the upstairs bar at the Pitcher & Piano! (Following the Flyertalk signs thoughtfully provided by MoreChampagneSir?) A few Flyertalkers have already arrived, and so we get our tab set up and start to say hello to everyone..

Willard meets up with VC10 Boy and flibble, it's especially nice to see new faces, and see Flyertalk lurkers turning into fully fledged FT nuts!

And on our next visit to the bar we meet UK flyer! Willard was impressed that he had a much more upmarket bag than Willard!

And WIllard is happy to see that he isn't the only mascot attending (one day he dreams that the mascots may outnumber the humans at an FT meet). So TIMP has brought along her little friend twinkie.
