London dope?

Cheers, ruadh. Reminder: it’s currently looking like being Saturday 22 July. Possible so far: me, ruadh, Coldfire, realidad, casdave.

As I will be spending the weekend of the 15th in Paris with my GF, and as she is coming to Amsterdam the 29th, it is highly unlikely that I will make the trip to London the weekend in between. I’m really sorry guys, but you know how it is with women: they change their minds all the time.

I am in London every two or three weeks normally. So I’m sure we’ll be able to arrange a get-together someday.

Well, I hope the rest of us can still go ahead. Once the football season starts I’ll be going up to Glasgow so a London trip would be difficult to fit in to my schedule/afford.

BTW, I just learned that my friends who are coming to Ireland on the last weekend of July aren’t actually going to make it to Dublin til the 30th, so I could do the 29th if absolutely necessary… it wouldn’t be ideal though.

Only just spotted this thread. Can’t do the 21/22 - family bloody wedding in Somerset - but would be interested. Anyone the wrong side of 30 ?

Is that motor spare suppliers ?

I just realized my last post didn’t make much sense. Insert the word “frequently” after “Glasgow”

LC, I’m the wrong side of 30, but just by a few months.

If you want a different date, that’s fine with me. I can’t do the weekend of 15/16 July, and possibly not the weekend of 29/30 July. Apart from that I’m fine up to about 20 August when I start my new job.

18/19 August would work for me. 11/12 probably would too. 4/5, probably not.

August might be better for me too

Okay, let’s make it August. Everyone suggest dates when they can.

bumpety-bump-bump-bump

Any updates?

Can’t do next weekend. Can’t do one of the two last weekends in August (stag night in Brighton tbc).

:bump:

Hey guys, how about early August then? Maybe the weekend of the 5th or the 12th.
How are people for those dates?

Now I’m also back in the London area, but probably won’t be for a while after the 5th or 6th of August. Before that would be better (29th or so), but I guess that is looking more and more unlikely.

Weekend of the 12th might be do-able. 5th is tricky, but might be okay.

Weekend of the 12th is good for me. (if nothing changes)
Any ideas on venue?

I know the Euston / Camden / Chalk Farm area quite well. Plenty of pubs and restaurants around there. Even if I can’t make it I can dig up some info, if that’s the kind of area people want to try.

Hope you can make it. Camden area is pretty good for me, don’t know it all that well, but trust you completely. (shudder)
So who else is chiming in then?
we need some more answers.

If I can get my arse and my girlfriends lovely behind on some sort of aerial transportation device for a price that doesn’t exceed the GDP of Angola, I will be leaving for holiday the weekend of the 12th.

The 5th might work, if I’m in London that weekend. Which is doubtful, as we might be going on holiday together a week later anyway.

I swear, I’m a simple man. It’s my girlfriend that’s making things this complicated!

Assume I want to visit a meeting in London, how do I get this USA PC to work there? Are there international ISPs? LIke is Compuserve? Shucks, how do people login there? Do libraries have free net PCs? thx.

There are loads of internet cafes. EasyEverything is a new chain of large shops throughout London – usually near the major rail stations – which charges depending on demand. If you’re there at 4am, apparently, it’s quite common to be charged just £1 for 6 hours.
