Say hello to Kev the elePHPant

This is Kev. He cost five quid, although I think he’s worth at least eight.

Good PHPWM meeting last night! Darren Beale did a great talk on the Symfony PHP framework which I had read about before, but will certainly be checking out now.

Thats a cool elephant.
So is there a directory of Birmingham/WM IT related meetups (twitter, flickr, php, podcasting, blogging, etc)

Not that I’ve found that’s all in one place actually, but it is a good idea. If anyone knows of such a directory let us know.

I know there are Birmingham flickr meetups, PHPWM, Multipack meetups..there are probably more.

Where are you based Dom?

Actually, you’re from Brum yourself, I already know that.

Sorry it’s end of day madness.

Yep, Brum. Bearwood to be specific. I found a flickr meetup group, and go to the Midland Mac User Group already. I missed out on Podcamp last year cos I was moving house but might try and go this year. Just wondering what else I’m missing!

Wow, you have a PHP elephant?!? That’s awesome!!! I bow to your superior geekness… LOL

I’m from the States… I forget… is a Quid the same as a pound? If I had to guess, that’s what I’d put my money on, but I’m not certain… Maybe it’s kinda like we say one “buck” instead of one dollar.

@Jonathan: A quid is a type of sea animal only found in British waters. Like a baby squid but with less legs. Seriously.

No word of a lie Dave!!?

Hey Jonathan, yeah, it’s my pride and joy…well, not really, but it’s quite fluffy, and blue :)

Yes, a quid is the same as a pound, unless, Dave is right, and then that probably means that all you know of the real world is a lie. Don’t think about it.

You’re website is great, and yours Dave…I need to blog more.

Wow… what a cool elephant!!! I love him and what one of my very own!!

So looks like I found your blog too, although it wasn’t too difficult as there was a link to it on your comment :S

See you soon x
