Sounds good - will make a bit of a diference to the last meet that we had on your behalf without any involvement from you...

i suppose it will help if i'm actually there, yeah.

so where should i go? is there a tube stop i should find?

I'm not sure where Bear is actually doing is b-day (other than the fact it is south london...)

So until we find out I propose we either meet in the Chandos (lovely sam smiths pub) or the Marquess of Granby, both at Chandos Place close to both trafalgar square and charring cross station (should we need to get south of the river)...

any preferences?

I'm quite up for this, but I'm gonna be in Greenwich all day and thus very far from my computer- if someone could call me (sleaze, I've PMed you my number) it'd be cool.

Bear's doing birthday things later in the week I believe.

I have a ghastly sore throat and so may not be up to attending a meet, which is a shame as I would like to meet Dizfactor, but will see how I feel later on...

Were I in London I'd really like to come.

Maybe next time, Diz.

I totally have an interview I should be revising for... but what's better then forgetting about these things?

15:19 / 16.03.05

as for time, I'm unlikely to get there before 6 30 - how about everyone else?

Tryphena Absent

15:26 / 16.03.05

I'm finishing at 6. Provide a map wontcha?

How would people feel if I said "Please God not the Chandos, anywhere but the Chandos, let's say the Plough or even the Blue Posts instead?"

sleazenation

15:33 / 16.03.05

People would say - you had your chance sunshine! - I suggested two places and no one came up with any alternatives - its a bit late now to change venue...

sleazenation

15:35 / 16.03.05

I guess as a compromise we could go to the Marquess of granby a couple of doors down - but we have no clue if Diz will read this in time...

Fairy nuff.

map

the chandos is actually on Willian IV street - but is close enough to Chandos Place to be evident... I hope...

Regrettable Juvenilia

15:39 / 16.03.05

A map.

Dagnabbit- I'm terribly sorry I missed this. omehow I managed to get far too drunk during the afternoon. Tis a shame- I was quite looking forward to meeting you, diz.

Bear

10:40 / 17.03.05

I'm such a muppet, I was out last night around Charing Cross I should have checked the gathering.

Also going out tonight in Catford if anyone is interested.

Mapo

Catford Ram tis called, I understand it's more out of the way than normal but if anyone is at a loose end.
