Mid week mini practice-for-August bash
Well. It seems that my organisation are sending me to that there London again, and I've wangled an overnighter (no way am I getting up at 5am to get the train down from the frozen, industrial north).

Anyone fancying a pint and a chance to chew the fat, come along. Call it a practice run for Ancenne's August bash... the wearing of a white carnation isn't compulsory, but is to be encouraged.

Thanks to Devil-in-Tights for the venue suggestion...

But seriously
There is a pub near Victoria station called teh Stage Door which has a good write up on Beer in the Evening.

Failing that, how about somewhere slightly further afield, there is a nice pub just round the corner from Green Park the name of which I have forgotten but it did a decent pint.

The Cask and Glass looks nice
I'm coming in via finsbury park, so near the victoria or picallili lines is best for me.
( althegeordie is a bully and a cocksucker, Thu 5 Jun 2008, 16:32, Reply)

How's about
somewhere in Covent Garden then? Good and central. Could even go to the Cave bar (I think that's what it's called. It's above the pasty shop). Or the Prince of Wales.
( Devil_In_Tights my ring is tight on my finger, Thu 5 Jun 2008, 16:54, Reply)

Covent garden is a good idea
Prince of Wales is nice (if its the one i'm thinking of) or I think it's the Bedford on Bedford Street, or The Sussex normally has some decent real ales.

What is the protocol for these sort of meet ups then? Is Davros going to assign a flower for us to wear or do we have some sort of hand signal?

But what sort of flower
and what colour? Davros, you're the instigator, you have to make this sort of decision!
( althegeordie is a bully and a cocksucker, Thu 5 Jun 2008, 19:51, Reply)

Good question. We had red carnations last time. How about being completely off the wall and going for white this time..?

Bringing the missus? How sweet that peoples is all paired off for this bash. Is that compulsory? Do we have to gaze adoringly into someone's eyes and touch their knees affectionately mid-sentence?

we have to Gaz affectionately at somones Izzzzzzz then touch either their monkey, goat or clean shaved bioethicisit innapropriately mid sentance.

It's a diffcult choice for me but I think I opt for Number 3: bioethicist. He doesn't have to be clean-shaven though.
He has no say in this whatsoever.

Edit: the goat is in second place, the monkey in third.

I've got some spare bubble wrap that hasn't been used in the NoBruise-AntiFallingOver outfit which might be less absorbent than paper.

No scars though, ok?

Well, maybe just a small one.
