Well there's a fair chance I shall still be on the Diazepam at that time, so it'll be soft drinks for me. As such I'm much less fussed about wherever we go.


Ealing anyone?

Lots of pubs, food available, live music if we want it, Central, district & picadilly lines. Mainline trains take 7 mins to paddington.

Sounds perfect. Where's a logical place to meet up, and do we need to do a mobile number swap?

I'll also have been paid that morning, so that'll make life a bit easier.

There's a pub across the road from Ealing Broadway station (District, Central & Mainline) called Chandlers (we it was last time I was there).
How about there? I'm free any time from 5pm.
My numbers on bookface or I can PM it to people.

You should have a text, assuming I haven't been too malco with the phone number.

I'm not usually one for the whole planning thing, but have done a fair amount for this trip and it's looking like being a corker:

Wednesday - Pub with old friends followed by John Mayer gig
Thursday - Harrods in the morning (my brothers have never been and it's worth it just for the food hall) and then Hi Fi auditioning at a really nice place in the afternoon. Probably a trip to chinatown in the evening for some food as well.
Friday - The day is largely unplanned but will be something touristy with my brothers, followed by the X404 meetup
Saturday - My youngest brother's girlfriend is coming down from Cheltenham and my sister is down from Sheffield for the weekend so we're all meeting up at Borough market for a roving tapas lunch across the array of stalls there.

Dammit, I'm drooling already.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Yes, I'm working a couple of miles away on Friday so can meet earlier if needed.

Thanks to the peak time travel restrictions restrictions on cheap day return tickets I shall most likely be in London well before 5.

I'm in Kew all day (just down the road from Ealing) if you get bored. Or you could try to harass Caz in to coming out, she's in Chiswick

If it was within walking distance I would also choose to walk but 80+ miles is a bit far in one day. Still see you this afternoon.

Any chance of a final roll call? Of the last couple of confirms only jonlumb has a photo in the gallery so I have no idea who else I'm looking for. :lol:
