Today, after much rinkchatting and memoing, Sosi and I finally met today.

As any regular has probably gathered, she's been staying in a hotel which is next door to where I work.

She got into chat this morning, to find I had attempted to surprise her on the way to McDonalds. She thwarted this by staying in bed a bit longer than she said she would.

We then chatted to find the only bit of the local area she knew was the walkway I take to get to work every morning, so naturally, the meet was on! (Pending adult permission, which she got.)

We arranged to meet on the walkway, having swapped details of what we were wearing (for pure recognisability only!)

I rushed along to find her waiting with her father, sort of nervously I think, :-) , but having introduced ourselves we wandered off to the riverside to talk.

Amazing coincidences continued to abound. Sosi Snr works for a large Computer company whose products I spend most of my day supporting.

We talked computers for most of the time, in fact, with Sosi lamenting the fact she has low spec PC's at her school lab. Other than that we talked about what Sosi and family have been to see here. They did more in a day than I'd contemplate in a week!

Sadly, after 20 mins I had to return to work, but hopefully Sosi and father are left thinking we're not all Pyscho internet stalkers out there...

All in all, it was a very pleasant 20 minutes and leaves me only more determined to get to the next Rinkunion.

Look out for the photo.
