Not sure if I can make the 23rd either - I shall consult my diary

Bucket

Depending on dates I may be up for this

ArchtopDave

I could make the 23rd.

I'm on one of my very occasional visits to London, as I'm doing a Course on the Thursday and Friday of next week.

Guys, keep it at the 23rd, it's my eldest's parents evening - so I can't miss it, and the next day we're probably off somewhere it being the half term.

There was a clue @Bucket ... "picking a date at random Thurs OCTOBER 23rd ??"

It would be great to see you again Dave.  Would you just stand in the corner so I recognise you??  

Trying to think of people who've made previous London meet-ups ...

@Mellowsun

@musicegdbf

@ddlooping - be good to see you again ...

Anyone very very welcome.  It's a chance to put real-life faces to on-line names, and to be amazed at how different the real-life person can be from the on-line persona.  Or not.

@Jalapeno - are you a definite for this?

Jalapeno

Um ... need to check - might be band practice ....

How many people are you dating for Chrissakes Connor? Anyway, it doesn't matter which one it is, bring her along. 

Edit: I'd like to come along.  Haven't had guitar beers for an age.  But I'm not in town that day and fly off to Madge Orka the next day...

As I'm moving down I will attend next one

Damn... can't make that night.  Hope to be at the next one.

I'm detecting a bit of a trend here.

The date was picked more-or-less at random.  If another date would work for more people ... suggest it!!

Make it earlier so Frank can come. Then if it turns out that I hate the rest of you, I'll just spend the night hogging his lovely red head.

frankus

Wednesdays and Fridays are usually good days for me.

Jalapeno

All clear - I'll be there for 23rd.

musicegbdf

So who is firm ?
Last time I waited around for a long time and I think there was just the three of us at the Old Doctors Butlers head.

My only problem is can't stay too late.... Last train is fairly early , etc etc...

Think I am free that night (have to check the boss at home)...

Thurs 23rd, list of current runners & riders ...

@TheGuitarWeasel (LSt)

@GuitarGeek62 (DLR - Bank/Tower Hill)

@ArchTopDave (Holborn/Euston)

@Jalapeno (St Pauls > Euston)

@musicegbdf (LSt/FenchurchSt)

@Drew_fx (anywhere)

@Bucket (MetLine)

@Mellowsun

@TTony (LSt)

possibles - to confirm

all confirmed

 

I added in everyone's departure point (in brackets) so we can maybe work out a location convenient for most.  But if Jalapeno is working in the City, then it might be that we meet up somewhere around City/LSt where I believe there are a couple of pubs.  Perhaps around 6ish?

The "(??)" referred to your location/station

:P

Euston

Drew_TNBD

I work in London Bridge, and I'm not a lazy git. So anywhere in London is good with me.

ArchtopDave

My hotel is near Euston Station.

 I'm doing a Course at the College of Surgeons which is near Holborn Tube Station.

mellowsun

Put me down for a tentative yes. The pub is round the corner from work so I should be able to make it!

musicegbdf

What sort of time. I finish at five and can be there around five thirty.
How to we recognise each other?
