August Londope -- plan now, and avoid the rush

Tragedy!

I will be in London August 7th - 17th. Sorry I’ll miss the shindig.

Can I come?

I have just been plying the SO with wine and am sure we could be in London for the 23rd. Could we bring the couple we’re staying with as well?

The more the merrier. Bring your trivia brain.

Ok, so do we start a new thread?

I’m assuming that it’s still the 23rd of August. London? Right?

I will be hosting her Frannieness with Mo at some hotel. We’re arriving the Friday night and leaving on Sunday.

L-O-N-D-O-N!

It’ll be lovely to see you all again and meet some new people as well.

Naah…we’ll keep this one going. T’would be handy to have a new headcount of who is still planning to attend, though (and any new people who missed this the first time around – newbies welcome!).

I am coming. So is Mo.

That’s three including you.

If you’re going to be staying at a hotel, let me know in this thread and I’ll email you the details of our hotel, if you need a hotel suggestion. Don’t want any random weirdos knowing where we’ll be staying.

Except for you guys.

I just cannot WAIT to have a holiday!

I’m still up for this. There was also some talk about a mini-get together at the Great British Beer Festival running from 5th - 9th August at Olympia. I’ll start a thread on this soon.

Will I?

The rest of you, add your names!

I’ll definitely be there - I’m really looking forward to it!

GBBF is not worth the entrance money unless you can get there before the final weekend; too many exhibitors sell out in the week before. Otherwise it’s great.

May or may not make the Londope. Depends where I am for work.

I’m up for it, but give me enough notice to book a room, maybe we could book into the same place.

My turn to spring for the double room Kferr

Still aiming to show my face …

Still planning on coming.

I would love to, but my cousin’s getting married that weekend. The celebrations start from Tuesday. Slipping away for even a couple of hours would probably be noticed :frowning:

It is still the Bank Holiday Weekend yes?

Yes, but if the festivities are starting on Tuesday, will anyone else be in any condition to notice you’re gone, Angua?

I’ll be there.

What did happen to the mini-beerfest thingy plans?

Its a Muslim wedding. More to the point, its a strict Muslim wedding, no alcohol at all, and headscarves all round for the women.

I’m arriving Fri 22 and leaving Sun 24.

:frowning: I still owe you a few pints. I should be passing through Brum later this month, so maybe I can pay off the debt then?

I’m still planning to come. Any hotel suggestions gratefully received.
