Dalip's visit to the UK - July 2015

Dalip is going to be visiting the UK from about 9th July so unfortunately he's going to miss out on the London Summer GTG

All is not lost, we can arrange a smaller gathering during the time Dalip is here. Dalip, please confirm your dates.

A dinner at central London venue seems most likely. I think Diamond Jack will be pleased if we avoid a certain pub in Duke street

If you could add you name to this thread and indicate if you would prefer a week day (e.g. a Thursday night) or weekend gathering. Also if you have an idea of a quieter central London dinner location that would be good too

Prospective Attendees
Dalip
Swearengen (Gabriel) Week night or Weekend. Venue suggestion: somewhere in Drummond St
Diamond Jack (Steve)

Typical sodding Dalip, always "fashionably late" but whenever and wherever......I'm in!!

Prospective Attendees
Dalip
Swearengen (Gabriel) Week night or Weekend. Venue suggestion: somewhere in Drummond St
Diamond Jack (Steve)
Spuds (Dan) [preferably Friday night or weekend if possible please?]





P.S.... If this is going to be a Friday or Saturday once the location is sorted, please could anyone 'in the know' recommend a hotel? Thanks....

Steve/Diamond Jack also votes Thursday 16th, if that is OK with Dalip.

I think we are still sticking with the dinner idea.

Very good Nathan. We need to work on a quieter venue that the last one or I think Steve will kill me

If you do come I might take you up on the kind offer of loan of the Tudor book, otherwise perhaps we can meet for lunch in Oxford Street sometime

Gents,
Anyone had any word from Dalip? I think maybe we should postpone tomorrows GTG until we hear from him

We can try to organise something for next week once we know his movements

I had an email from him Saturday Gabriel so I know he's in the UK and on a very busy schedule, but as for his plans re: any GTG I'm no wiser than you are mate, sorry.
