London Meetups

Count me in for the 4th September too.. Shall we plan for Southall? Look forward to meeting everyone again, it's been a while.

Haylo · Jul 24th, 2009, 19:15

I'll do my best to make 4th September, though it might not be easy to get down to London after work on a Friday.

Does anyone have a sofa or bit of floor around there that I could sleep on? I am house trained. Existing members only please!

Alas count me out - a committment I can't break

Sorry folks, forget about planning anything around me, I just ran it past my girlfriend, and I'm sorry to say she has made other plans for us that night, meeting some old friends. I'm gonna try over the weekend to change her mind, but like I said, go ahead and plan without me for the moment. Sorry Steven, Karuna and others, would've been great to meet you all, but probably not this time.

Women!

Will you be passing through on your return trip?

karuna · Jul 25th, 2009, 03:56

ARRGH! Well SMT might be worth the repeated trips to London, but I'm not sure you lot are.

karuna · Aug 16th, 2009, 00:02

I'll be in London next weekend. Any takers for a pint or five?
(I didn't mean what I said above, honest!)

Old_Boots · Sep 30th, 2009, 18:52

Did this meet up actually happen ?
Are there plans for another if it did not happen ?

Regards

No plan. but next will be better in city for travel reasons.

Old_Boots · Sep 30th, 2009, 19:12

Yes I think somewhere with better travel connections would be better.
Southall is great for food(I'm a Southall boy myself). But from where I live and work it is a long commute. Travel convenience is important to be fair to as many people as possible.

Unfortunately it never materialised. However, i think a London Meetup is well overdue. Anyone interested? Lets hook up before Christmas.

Any dates? Any venue? And most importantly, who's joining us?

Old_Boots · Oct 2nd, 2009, 19:27

Count me in.

How about Mid November ?
Venue: A pub, in central London
http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs...osts/Fitzrovia

Or does it have to be somewhere that serves Indian food ?
The main Indian centres are:
Southall, Tooting (south London)
Wembley (NW London)

Which makes transport difficult.

no, you have Green street in Forest Gate or The Aldgate area. Last time there was a meetup that I attened we ended up in Tayyabs in Whitechapel. I go there quite often, a very nice restuarant.

Nick-H · Oct 3rd, 2009, 00:05

(Hello Beena, have you finally landed up back in London?)

Not to mention East Ham (Better for Southern than Green St) and Wembley.

Oh... Old_Boots already mentioned Wembley.

Yes Nick it's back to reality for me. I'm back at my desk job and feel like a grouded jetlite plane

. Got back on the first of september and started work 6 days later. Ouch!

Yes East Ham is good too, I had a nice masala dosa there the other day for 1 pound 50.
