Hmmm.....I wonder if Furball has e-mail enabled.  I will check...thanks.

Keep checking the board Sparks.  I will update on hotel location and meeting place closer to the date.

NP, but I can't do Tues/Weds. Thursday onwards is OK.

How about Friday evening guys?

I am staying at The Rubens at Buckingham Palace.  We could meet there and head to the nearest pub for a pint or ten.:)

I'm going to be in Italy (Hi Naso!) until Thursday 27th May, so the Friday 28th May is potentially good for me, (although I've got my dad over, so can't really commit). I'll do my best though!

Lol! At 75, he's not much of a drinker and would be bored solid with WW2 plane talk!

Ah, Putney Bridge.  I stumbled home across her drunk many times on the way back to Digby Stuart/Roehampton.  I am jealous.

28th is OK. If we're going to be pissing it up, I'll come in by train.

Curv - email me for phone number swap.

Are we still looking at 28th - that works for me.  I'll need an address.  Beetle - any chance of posting closest tube station - I'll be training down.

Sparks - I don't yet know where we'll be meeting. Probably somewhere near Victoria. If you're coming in from Peterborough you'll arrive at Kings Cross (?). From there you can just take the Victoria line down to Victoria.

I spoke to Curv on the phone this evening. Hehe - sounds like a flippin' Yank. :lol

A Saturday evening booze-up's best for me, but earlier in the week is fine too - I may just have to be more moderate. :D

Work phone is 0208 420 3977 and ask for Quentin. Not that any of my colleagues will actually bother to pick it up...

Has anyone heard from Curval?

Have any plans been made yet?
