'Ello lads.

I will be in London from May 24th to the 30th.

I'm meeting up with Swoop and visiting a number of clients.

Let me know if any of you want to hook up for a pint.

Sounds great. Where will you be staying?

An excellent opportunity to drink beer and eat curry!!!

How about Wimbledon - easy access to both tube and BR however Bar M at Putney bridge would be good too or Soho and Chinatown appeal!!

I'm trying to sort out hotel reservations now.

Somewhere as close to Victoria as possible.

Putney works for me!

If it's a weeknight, somewhere around Victoria would be even better.

Curval!

An opportunity not to be missed... I live just outside London, about 30 miles from Swoop/Ravell's area - Chiswick/Kew/Brentford somewhere? I'll definitely try to make it.

Dowding - if you wanna come and need somewhere to stay, let me know.

I'll probably be bobbing around in the english channel for the duration of your stay but just in case let me know, Swoop owes me beer.

Silly question... I thought Swoop moved to Rotterdam?

Is he back in GB?

Curval

I might have my mother staying with me for a couple of days in that period. Can you be more specific about your movements when you come here, so that I can plan around it?

You can email me if you like.

Beet1e,

I will be staying in a centrally located hotel, but not quite sure which one.

I arrive on Monday morning(early) and could possibly hook up for a beer that night.

Tuesday I have a lunch appointment and a meeting in the afternoon. No plans for the evening yet.

Wednesday and Thursday I will be attending a transfer pricing seminar at the Holiday Inn Victoria. No plans as yet for the evenings.

Friday a client will be taking me to Hendon for the day.

Saturday, no plans yet.

Sunday...fly home.

So...as of right now my evenings are pretty free, but that could change once more of my UK based clients find out I will be in London.

I'm still trying to et a good hotel sorted.

Rgr that, Curv. Tuesday & Wednesday evenings are not good for me. The Monday evening of your arrival would be OK, but you'll probably be knackered because of west to east jetlag. And your flight could be delayed, what with all the new security and stuff. Thursday/Friday/Saturday would be fine.

Dowding · « **Reply #12 on:** April 28, 2004, 11:18:53 AM »

That would be cool, Curv. I live oop North so I'll see how things lie. I have to be in Leeds every weekend from May 22nd to October, so I'm not sure.

Thanks for the offer Beetle. If I turn up, that would be great.

Ah yes...well we all have our crosses to bear.

Hopefully you can make it man.

Going to Hendon Curv - drop Furball a line - he works there now. If I'm back in the country I wouldn't mind getting the train down to say hi.
