Drupal Karting

At Drupalcamp North West it hit me that we don't actually see other Drupal companies as much we should outside of a Drupalcon/camp, so I decided to do something about it.

The first Drupal Social event was Drupal Karting, which saw a few Northern Drupal companies get together on a weekend away from work.

The guys from Livelink were a few seconds a lap quicker than the rest of us, with Jonny Glancy and Richard Lyon leading joint first into the final with Chris Cohen from Tigerfish 3rd and myself and Ashley Wright ending up 4th and 5th.

We exhibited at Think G Cloud in October, which featured a jam packed day of keynote, workshops and interactive sessions shining the spotlight on the G Cloud procurement framework.
