I would really like to come but I name change a lot so I have a fear that everytime someone asks "whats you MN name" it will folllow with a

I have been wondering if I should do a last minute, forever more name change & wait for the next meet up.

Don't worry about it. Unless you're a troll well welcome you with open arms...And a free glass of fizz on arrival

But seriously, come along Bohica

can't make it this time val :( would have to leave almost as soon as i arrived due to the wonderful public transport system we have!

Erm,

Pimm's??

I'll get back to you re. Pimms

Thanks.

I'm actually teasing, I could drink fermented melons if I had to.

[clarsy]

how does one "drim" fingers?

Yo chaos, they got Pimms.

Ooh, I love a bit of Pimms. Tastes like fruit squash, so you quaff it by the pint, lulled into a false sense of security by the innocent fruity bits floating in it, until suddenly......bam!

I shall be dancing on the tables by 8.30pm with any luck.

pimm's.

you alkies should be sectioned.
:(

[wunk]

Oi, Chaos, why haven't you gone on my loo/phone thread? Days and days I've been waiting. I've had all sorts of traumas, and where are you eh? Talking about Pimms. Huh.

The canapes sound gorgeous, well done Methods

That kebab pizza looks mingtastic, must remember to get some for when visitors turn up unannounced and I want them to leave

Still no idea how I'm getting there but I'll get there via Redbull wings if I have to. Have talked conned dp into picking me up after which means I don't have to worry about making a total tit of myself on public transport when I am slightly merry

Canapes sound yum - make me step away from them, or there will be none left for anyone else

Result NotShort - you have a very accommodating DH. I haven't even told mine I'm going yet

at the lovely canapes on offer. I definitely will not be able to come in spite of all the encouragement from you a few days ago. RL has, unfortunately, reared its painful head and is going to cost me my train fare.

I hope you all have a very lovely time.

I will be buying kebab pizza specially to consume on my sofa on the night.

OK. Given that the tubes are a bit crap that weekend, I've come up with some alternatives for y'all.

From Liverpool Street
Take the No.8 bus towards Oxford Circus (bus stop on Bishopsgate).
Get off at the Holborn Circus / Fetter Lane.
Cross the road (High Holborn) so you're now on the same side of the road as WHSmiths.
To the left of WHSmiths, you have Leather Lane. Walk all the way down it to the very end where it hits Clerkenwell ROad.
The Clerk & Well is opposite you, slightly to the left.

From King's Cross / St Pancras
Take the No. 63 bus towards Honour Oak (bus stop on Euston Road directly in front of King's Cross Station)
Get off at Clerkenwell Road.
Cross Farringdon Road so that you are on the same side of the road as Yo Sushi.
Walk down Clerkenwell Road.
The Clerk & Well is about 2 minutes on your right.

or

Take the No. 45 or the No. 46 bus towards Steatham / Stonecutter Street respectively (bus stop on Euston Road directly in front of King's Cross Station)
Get off at the Rosebery Avenue.
Walk up and take the first left (at the cornershop) so you're now on Clerkenwell Road.
Walk straight up Clerkenwell Road. The road forks off to the left (Rosebery Avenue), don't go down there.

Will post Euston and Waterloo later.
