    Well I'm here. Starting to wonder if it was a good pick as it's a bit small but too late to change now.

    I'm dressed as advertised and I've got a Private Eye. I'm also particularly sweaty.

    PS Phone is low on juice so will turn off and check messages periodically so please SMS rather than calling.

    Have a wonderful time.

    I hope you all get to eat and drink better than I have had in some people's homes. :D

    Sorry I won't meet you Generali.

    I'm off on August 3rd to Georgia, but if you fancy a coffee before, PM me. I'm either about 40 minutes from London, or in West London, depending on what I'm doing.


    Yes - we occasionally talk of having a nice people get together - perhaps we should try and do something whilst Gen is in London?
    I think....

    Another issue is revealing my weight, which really is a no, no. OH has booked for us to see the grand canyon by plane and they need to know my weight. It is almost enough to make me decline the excursion.

    They ask you that on the small planes to and from the Isles of Scilly, too. Which usually produces horror in a good percentage of the assembled.

    It's quite exciting going into London on a school night :) I'm sweaty after a power walk across town mind you, so goodness knows what I'll be like when I arrive. I think dishevelled will feature strongly though!
