Some other types of forum based meet (which I know this one wasn't really) people wear a small sticker with their forum name on which helps no end, or pre-arranged meets at a particular time at a particular stall or similar to meet some new faces.
Or maybe everybody already knows everyone else and it's only me being a Billy No Mates !!!

You can see it going through his head. "Don't need anything- I know where Gillingham is"
Easy mistake to make at Waterloo mind you.
I hope you wind him up endlessly for it.

NOTE FROM ORGANISERS
One of the many amusing Gathering stories told over the years involves certain individuals holding weekend tickets turning up at the Gatherings registered office on the Thursday wondering where they are supposed to pitch their tent and where all the activities are. So to avoid the mirth of the staff please take note of the event venue address clearly indicated above and on all our literature.
