DFW Social - 23rd July 2006

LookingAhead

Hello I am not a London person however I do know that King's Cross and Euston are within 10 minutes walk of each other (I used to go on courses in Euston).

However, yes Covent Garden is a nicer area!

Yep, I agree, covent garden the best place to stay.

Just avoid the shops round there, comprendez?

but i either need

1) get transport from somewhere down south, or share at least
2) get somewhere to kip on the night (ahem Jim, or i cud pull but not betting on the latter one!)

SO is it covent garden then for the social? ANd what time was people thinking, as travelling from cambridge. Can I bring a friend so as not to get lonely on the train down and be a billy no mates

Hi. I'm not convinced that Covent Garden is the best place to meet a bunch of strangers as it is busy at the best of times..

However if most people would prefer.....?

I suppose the idea of a park was that it was open space, kids would be welcome, and we wouldnt have to spend a lot to meet up (i.e. unlike if we met in a pub/bar)..

Perhaps lunchtime/early afternoon? And of course you can bring a friend - the more the merrier....!!

I know details are a bit sketchy, but it WILL be happening, just a case of finalising details, so dont panic :0) xx

Yeah, Covent Garden would not be the best place to meet up, but the hotel for the people that want to stay there, would be nice and central and would provide good transport links to the social.

From where down south?

Well we still have time to get the small details sorted about the day. I have to admit I'm getting quite excited to meeting you all.;) Maybe if this one goes well we could try and have one say once a year or something - just a thought!
