| 14:55.04 | cityLights | hi mate |
| 14:55.13 | cityLights | how are you doing back at HK? |
| 14:55.15 | Leeds | hi... |
| 14:55.26 | Leeds | busy, moving to a new flat |
| 14:55.43 | cityLights | congrats |
| 14:55.51 | Leeds | same building different floor, need to buy some new furniture, etc. |
| 14:55.52 | cityLights | me too, soon |
| 14:56.02 | cityLights | IKEA? |
| 14:56.29 | cityLights | As I missed you at FOSDEM.. how did you enjoy it? |
| 14:57.41 | Leeds | yup, been to IKEA this evening :) |
| 14:58.14 | Leeds | and I'm really sorry I missed you - in the end, I was only on campus for about 90 minutes, saw wethrin and agk, then had to go meet my family in town |
| 14:59.02 | cityLights | maybe you would like to continue in IM now |
| 14:59.10 | Leeds | sure |
| 14:59.11 | cityLights | I want to ask you regarding work |
| 14:59.35 | Leeds | ah |
| 15:07.27 | dick_turpin | Leeds: yaMatt was really pissed off he didn't meet you. :-( |
| 15:08.11 | Leeds | dick_turpin: I genuinely was there for about 90 minutes... wandered around the expo area, bumped into agk, had a coffee with wethrin, then left |
| 15:09.41 | dick_turpin | Clearly a very busy man |
| 15:10.58 | dick_turpin | Mind you one good thing. If I'd have been there I'd have tapped you for a donation to the podcast bwahahahahaha |
| 15:11.15 | Leeds | given that my mum, dad, sister, and brother-in-law had come to Brussels to see me, I'm not sure they would have appreciated "I'll be there later, I'm just geeking out right now" :) |
| 15:11.35 | Leeds | when someone is willing to go to *Brussels* for you, you have to show some respect :) |
| 15:12.48 | dick_turpin | I know a fair few who would have dragged them round the venue. |
| 15:13.02 | Leeds | I think they would have disowned me |
| 15:14.14 | Leeds | I enjoyed it, wish I could have stayed longer, but the times just didn't work |
| 15:14.32 | Leeds | actually, I felt I missed it, being in a full-on tech/geek environment |
| 15:14.40 | dick_turpin | By the sounds of it unless you have peoples mobile number bumping into people you know is almost impossible so Matt tells me. |
| 15:17.28 | Leeds | yeah, I saw one estimate of somewhere between 5000 and 10000 people attending over the weekend |
| 15:19.15 | dick_turpin | I suspect if I ever go I'll need a whole bunch of those wrist reins they have for kids for all the people I know. |
| 15:22.20 | Leeds | you have to make plans in advance... the wifi worked pretty well, apparently, so if you can find people online that is doable |

| 16:04.26 | yaMatt | Leeds, it's about the only way to meet people |
| 16:04.42 | yaMatt | I got a local SIM too which was €10 for 500mb, helped out massively |
| 16:04.46 | yaMatt | then I locked it out on the last day |
| 16:17.23 | AndyMillar | heh |
| 16:17.50 | AndyMillar | that's more expensive than my SIM in china ;) |
| 16:29.40 | yaMatt | more expensive than SIMs you can buy here too |
| 16:30.13 | yaMatt | but to be honest if I used more than 250mb a day I would be doing pretty well |

| 16:49.54 | Leeds | we did 5 countries in 2 weeks - 6 if you count China - and in the end didn't get a single local SIM, just relied on hotel wifi, the odd free hotspot, and offline maps etc. |
| 16:50.19 | yaMatt | yeah, it's tricker if you're travelling like that |
| 16:56.41 | Leeds | we did find we could get some free wifi in a lot of places, be it cafes, tourist offices, or in one case a shoe shop... |
