Dear London NPers,
As some of you know it already, I have moved to work in London and
would like to meet the members of London branch IRL.
Therefore I am proposing to have some Guiness (or whatever poison You prefer)
this Thursday, November 29, or this Friday, November 30.
Precise day, place and timing I leave to consensus.
From the next week on the things will become complicated for me
(for example, Fridays will be definitely out of the question)
Cheers,
pj

Okay, so Thursday evening it is.
What about something 1900th (can do later, before hardly)?
Concerning places:
Where could be a nice calm &dagger place where they serve
milk to cats? (I'm new to London)
&dagger I dislike loud places where is hard to understand each other.

I don't think it is very calm but you can always book one of the back rooms.

Phuck, no spare rooms in Counting House.
Should we go there anyway
or could you propose another place? |

They do not have spare rooms either (unless there would be >20
of us).
I propose to stick with Counting house. |

I don't have a particularly strong view on it. But counting house was full of braying idiots last time i was there. Jamaica wine bar was better.
But pj it's your party so you are the boss. |
