London Pub Meet 4 - May

[woodpoet]

It will be good to meet new faces.

 

[Swallow]

If you have space for another, I'd like to pop along.

Hell yes. Always room for more. Hope the weather is like this.

 

[Swallow]

Tim/Woodpoet, will you guys be kicking off early?

 

[woodpoet]

I will probably get there early. Now I'm retired got no ties to work so can do what I like.

 

[woodpoet]

Hope everyone still up for today. Will probably be there about 1630. Hopefully see you all later. by the way did we get in touch with Hemdale.

 

[Mesquite]

I'm still up for it... see you there

I had PM'd Tim, Sandsnakes and Hemdale all together on Friday about today. Haven't heard from hemdale at all.

 

[tim_n]

hehe, I leant him a scout hammock. He's probably fallen out of it and bashed his head.

I'm not going to make tonight I'm afraid - I've got telephony problems - the guy who illegally rewired it has made a complete balls of it and I've got the engineer coming over to have a look before installing VDSL. So I need to strip it out and replace it tonight before anyone notices it's been illegally and badly rewired! At least I can make it a bit better!

 

[Mesquite]

Woodpoet and I are here already.

Table 103 right by the gallery bar entrance.

 

[Swallow]

I'll be there in 30 mins.

 

[Mesquite]

Back from a nice evening meeting folks at the George Inn and having a good natter

As they say it didn't happen without pics so here's one

 

[woodpoet]

Brilliant photo of brilliant evening. Only person missing in photo is Mesquite. Nice to meet Swallow again and great to meet hellobayo, Mesquite and Sandsnakes. shame Tim_n and Hemdale were not there but maybe next time. Can't wait.

 

[sandsnakes]

I do like the basic back pack. Looks like it will hold all you need for a couple of days out.

 

[sandsnakes]

The canvas one is about 20 litres so its more of a day pack, you could do an over nighter if you have big pockets and are using very little kit. Hardcore!

The green one well i have done a 3 dayer using one, so its faily versatile.

Hi chaps,

Straw pole. If i can organise a spot, who is for a night out? Idea would be keep it so that its our group members only, we would have to contribute some dosh to the owner to cover his insurance, but the rest would be free.

It would be at a site near the M40 and those with cars could arrange a pick up in london at suitable tube stations.
