London Meet Up

[helen105281]

There seem to be a few of us now who are in and around London, or within easy reach of it. So does anyone fancy a forum meet up?

Am inspired by the Birmingham one

 

[piggyfan]

I will come! I am sure @Sue G would too.

 

[helen105281]

Brilliant that's 4 of us hopefully as will force Ross to come too.

 

[piggyfan]

I will do the same with matthew! Which month?

 

[helen105281]

Brilliant. Not too sure yet, I know I have a few things in August but they are nearer the middle to end of the month so could maybe do the beginning or if not September maybe?

 

[piggyfan]

Either is fine for me.

 

[helen105281]

Excellent.

 

[helen105281]

Bumping for anyone else who wants to come so we don't look like billy no mates.

 

[MrsSuzy]

Yay! I'll come

 

[helen105281]

Fantastic, that's 5, possibly 6 of us so far.

 

[Guineagrandma]

Yep count me and Chloe in!

 

[Sue G]

Sorry to be late - I'll certainly come if I can.

 

[Tbag]

Keep me posted, I'd be interested if I'm free and can afford a day out when the date is set!

 

[helen105281]

Fantastic.

Would people prefer a pub type place or a coffee type place?

Does anyone know of anywhere that is likely to be able to fit a few people in, last time I tried a Wetherspoons on a Saturday it was rammed.

 

[piggyfan]

I think some allow you to book a table. Well I have seen people booking in Hammersmith.

 

[jenniferanneharris]

I would be interested pending if i have a job by then...and the money. Will keep an eye on this thread. Never been to London alone though so may chicken out as i am a wimp

 

[helen105281]

That would be great Jenny.

Gigi, that's good to know, we can look into booking tables then when we decided when and where.

 

[Lady Kelly]

I'm a possibility depending on dates and train fares. It only takes about 10 mins longer to get to London than it does to Birmingham but its the astronomical prices they want to charge that would put me off

 

[VickiA]

I can get to London quite easily too, from Crewe it takes only about 30 -40 mins longer than Birmingham, but it does depend on whether I can pick up a cheapish ticket. When you've fixed a date pleas tag me and I'll look at trains. Would be good to meet more of you

 

[helen105281]

It would be great to see you both. Will finalise the date etc shortly and let you know.

 

[Julesie]

Have a fun time!

I'd love to talk about piggies but my anxiety wouldn't let me go. ^^;

 

[helen105281]

We will have a drink for you Julie. If you change your mind, Ross and I could always meet you at the station.

 

[Julesie]

Thank you Helen x

 

[SuperGPs]

Hey I might be able to come idk though I live in Kent by Essex though

 

[helen105281]

How does Sunday 31st August sound? Will hopefully be after most people's pay days.

 

[piggyfan]

Does that suit you Sue? @Sue G

 

[Sue G]

If it's as hot as this, I won't come - I don't like the heat anyway, and in London I think I'd expire. Any idea yet of where to meet?

 

[Sue G]

Sorry, Gigi - I didn't see your post. Yes, if it's not too hot

 

[helen105281]

Hopefully it won't be a heatwave by then.

Not sure. Do you prefer a pub or cafe? Or restaurant maybe?

 

[piggyfan]

Aww Sue. I hope you can come and it is not too hot.
