Afterwards, Stuart commented (possibly with some surprise?!), 'that was such a nice group of people', and I had to agree. Stuart is slowly getting sucked into the comics world but I don't think he minds too much.\\r\n\\r\nPlease don't forget to \u003Ca href=\"http://www.thedfc.co.uk\">subscribe to the DFC\u003C/a> so we can keep drinking beer.","2009-01-14T11:42:00.000Z","dfc-new-years-party",[],"DFC new year's party!",1776628726783]
