I seem to remember a Cataloguing & Indexing Group conference in Canterbury many years ago when we drank the bar dry on Saturday evening, which meant the staff had to do an emergency re-stocking in time for Sunday lunchtime. They hadn't expected to need extra supplies because it was only a group of librarians....
Perhaps we'll have to work harder at showing that we're natural party animals.

Anyone who went to IFLA in Glasgow (August 2002) may remember that the city didn't know what hit it! The local news covered the conference, with the usual observations about how out of character all this was!
Taxi drivers, restaurants, clubs etc loved having an invasion of nearly 5000 energetic and lively librarians - having anticipated a fairly slow week for business!
