red snow Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Ok, this is probably more of an instigation, than organisation of a get together but there seemed to be a few folk interested already so thought i'd make it official.I was thinking Saturday September 5th would be a good date as everyone (hopefully) will have been recently paid for the month, meaning we can blindly spend a chunk of it in one go.I'm not a seasoned pro when it comes to knowing where to drink in London (I'm most familiar with the Holborn area) but if people have a preference or somewhere that's generally convenient let me know. I have a CAMRA pub crawl guide I have yet to fully test out - although it sounds like some of the veteran BWB members know the good pubs already.EDIT: The get together will now be on friday the 11th september.

MinDonner Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Ah, Saturdays are not ideal for me, I'm only in London during the week normally. Still, I will see what I can do, put me down as a maybe. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstar Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Should be there. As far as I'm aware I'm free that day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaldanya Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Isn't the Saturday the 5th?Not sure how I'm fixed atm. I'll see how much the vets cost on Friday.N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Sean Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I'm working that day but it's a early shift, so I should make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red snow Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Isn't the Saturday the 5th?You're right, I must have got the dates mixed up between thread title and first post. Some people couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery it seems ;)So yeah, Saturday the 5th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Highly unlikely for me I'm afraid :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjm Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 That Saturday I'll have a 7 1/2 hour train journey from Scotland down to Cambridge. I suspect the idea of taking another train to get into London after that will not seem like a very appealing prospect at that time, so probably won't be there :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I'd like to say let's make it the Friday instead but that's my wedding anniversary so that's likely to be an unpopular choice in some quarters. I should be able to make the Saturday but I can't promise it at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red snow Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 Ok, let's try and be democratic about this. I've created a poll with the option of several dates http://www.doodle.com/epcz9ae9ychfzdvr?adminKey=All you have to do is throw in your name and click on the dates you know you can come. Then we can pick the day that is the most popular. ok?Hopefully you will enjoy the illusion of choice as I have only entered options where I can attend :ninja: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isis Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Yay. Good to have someone who takes a scientific approach to these things. Speaking of which, any jobs going at your place/how much do they pay RAs? Feel free to PM if you have answers. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red snow Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 It looks like Sunday's are thankfully ill-favoured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arbor Gold Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Looks like the proper thread to throw out the fact that I'll be in/around London Sept 8-20 (this is in no way a request to change the proposed meet up to accommodate me). It would be awesome if anybody wants to hang out on a weeknight or has time to kill during a weekday. My schedule is up in the air, and my sister might get pissy about me meeting up with random internet folks while I am visiting her, but I'd love to meet you guys if possible. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Sean Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Just to add, I'm double booked if you go for the 5th but I'll still be out at some stage and should you decide to meet in a pub near Euston, I can do both at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isis Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 ...I can do both at the same time.Well, let's hope you have more luck with that plan than I did. :lol: I'm thinking the weekend of 11th/12th might be better. Can anyone NOT do a Friday night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstar Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Fridays are fine with me. I'm in London for work anyhow, so that makes things easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaldanya Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 11th/12th sounds fabilicious to me. (Plus I said I could make 4th and I can't.)N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
