Sounds good to me. Don't know Whitechapel at all but i'll be convieniently trucking over from Ealing way on the Central line around 8ish so if theres a pub to head towards a few pints would be grand....

I'll be up in London sorting out some VISAs on the Wednesday/Thursday, so myself and Smoothly Weaving might well trundle along to this.

Wednesday may well be my lowest financial ebb this month but I'll try and make it anyway... Which end of Whitechapel High Street do you have in mind, the Whitechapel Tube end or the Aldgate East/Brick Lane end?

be lovely to see you, in 'bizarro world' moment, perhaps i could buy you a pint. aldgate end, so brick lane would be nice and easy. but you're the ex-local, and will definitely bow to yr knowledge on nice local pubs...

(Tez, will also obviously be buying yr pints *g*. you travelling back to Bton wed night?)

you travelling back to Bton wed night?

No, Thursday daytime, due to the VISA staff practice of sleeping for 8 hours halfway through the application process.

Hoom - I know some places up north a bit, sort of Commercial Road kind of thing - not sure about places actually *on* Whitechapel High Street...but assuming I'm not at work I'll try to make it.

How about Spitz? Not too shabby, tends to be a bit more room than nearby pubs (the Golden Hart is too likely to have no seating), whilst not being actively evil (cf. the Vibe Bar).

Sounds fine to me, not particularly amazing but ,it's dead easy to find for those who don't know the area and easy for me to get to/away from.

(of course, i to go to loungelovers and drink champagne cocktails, but i suspect i'm the only one with that inclination, and none of us have the cash! so, er, just ignore me.)

so, Spitz then?

Directions here.

Spitz good. I will come over when first chum of the evening has gone off to tango. For God's sake. So, 8:30ish most likely.

Ariadne and I might just come along. How can we turn down the chance to go for a drink somewhere close-ish to home for a change?

A fun night all round, and obviously I apologise unreservedly for my utterly and horribly wrecked state to all who were present.

I'm just a bit hurt you didn't play with *my* hair. It's all silky and everything. I wash it in stout and use Lush conditioner, you know...
