Someone sent me this image & said it was taken at the last FG Get Together.

Wonder who the tall dude is at the back? He looks far more intelligent than the others!

That's a long while back, the gentleman to whom you refer posted as anastrophe - I doubt whether you ever met him. I'm the one he's in the process of educating by means of the time honoured phrase "gottle of geer".

From memory I think the chap was called Frank Marshall.

I know it was a long time ago, but could you put names to the other members ... especially the cute chick on the left?

The only two I'm certain of is Snooze at the front on whose shoulder I'm perched, which makes sailor-boy next to her likely to be Clancy, and koan, the one you refer to on the left. As you can see from the photo, koan and anastrophe were uncomfortable in each others' presence. I was usually the one soothing down the ruffles on all sides.

I was wrong about Frank Marshall, he's too recent. I reckon it's a photo of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jules_Vernon
