Can we book a table in the court yard or terrace? I'm sure it'd be a great day drinking on a beautiful London summer day.

I will be going solo on both occassions, Dan - if I can make them

We can't book tables outside the pub itself at ground level Eric mate but closer to the time I'll try & book 'on the balcony' outside the pizza place or the burger bar right at the top....

Great news Paul & tbh I'm actually hoping people'll be wearing a few different brands......



(incidentally I'll probably be overnighting it too so if a few of us are closer to the time I'll see if we can get some kinda group discount or something?)

Sounds like a plan, I have googled the location, seems to be a few hotels close by.

I'm confused!!

In any case - I think we're going for the 2nd and the 9th right?????!

And - NO partners to either?? Is that right..??? That will suit Ali fine...seriously !! :) Easier if we don't have the little one running around...

How about putting up a new thread for each date??? It'll mean a head count and list of attendees at both...Spuds or Eric..wanna do the honours for that?????

Seriously looking forward to watching you wimpy Brit drinkers get slaughtered :)!!! :)
