Please don't let it be true.


All I can find is something saying they're thinking of doing the next strike around the 25th July. So everyone getting the train this weekend should be okay I think!

Can't wait for this weekend now. Really looking forward to it!

Excellent. Should be no trouble on the trains, then.

Paddington. It's about three roads between the station and the pub.

Its about a 5-10 min walk from the station easy to get too. If not sure google maps a route that is what i do when i go London.

The train i am getting leaves my local station at 12.13pm and will be in Paddington for 12.46. I am planning on coming to this meet up as long as my last minute nerves and anxiety kicks in on the day i should be fine and be there before 1pm.

Aaron'll probably post this later on, but plans are most likely changing, we've been discussing during Mario Kart. There's a festival happening in Hyde Park that weekend, so places surrounding it are going to be busy. We've been considering somewhere close to Regent's Park instead, but of course Aaron will want to hear what you all want to do before plans change.

You should download the app "city mapper" to get around London btw. Makes it very easy to get across town, just tell it where you wanna go (Station/pub name, or postcode) and it'll give you far better step by step directions, and accurate options, than Google maps.

Think we should meet near Rotherhithe.

We don't need to put Denster closer to the Thames, thanks. He's already vowed to push us Karters into it after the stuff we pulled.

Regent’s Park itself is a good meet up point but I’m not aware of any big open bar like areas near there. You have Camden at one end and Baker Street at the other and Camden will be mental busy.

Ill be finished around 14.30 at the opera
Might be getting an earlier train home But I should have 3- 4 hours with you guys. Somewhere in reasonable proximity to Euston and covent garden would be great for me but its easy to get to and from there for me.

TBF I don't think anyone was suggesting playing Mario Kart there, but that would be an utterly horrific meet up. :lol:

I'd like to pop along and drink a few largers (as in the drink larger) with the lads. :toot:

Pride Parade on Saturday so would expect it to be fairly busy at pubs near enough to the route.

If the Monkey Puzzle pub isn't likely to be the meeting point I'm happy enough to chuck in a few suggestions too. :)
