No idea when or where. Some in West London I suppose. She is available 4th-12th Jan. So in order to hit a weekend I am thinking 9th or 10th... but if other prefer something else I will juggle my schedule as required.

I am very excited. Yay! Quokka is coming to town!

And of course, everyone is welcome.

Maybe Richmond would be accessible to everyone? And maybe somewhere like Wagamama would suit suit post Christmas credit cruch budgets?

Nothing has been agreed so if you don't fancy anything I have typed here by all means feel free to speak up.

I don't think she types on Mn much these day. She used to be part of the West London meet-up group. But, she moved to Singapore... can't remember when? About a year ago?

9th is good for me (assuming dh isn't arranging a surprise birthday weekend away like he did last year!). Would be lovely to catch up with Quokka and you all.

And of course, who is in?

Oh no. Has it closed??? Bugger. This is the second meet-up in the last six months I have attempted to arrange at a restaurant which no longer exists.

rosmerta · 29/12/2008 13:24

I think it has reopened now.

Will have to let you know nearer the day, depends on how much sleep I've had!

ComeOVeneer · 29/12/2008 14:26

I thought it had a fire a few months back, not sure if it is up and running yet. Count me in though.
