Getting closer to 40 - West London

I don’t normally do any thing for birthdays, but if any one would like to join me in commiserating me getting closer to 40 than 30, they would be most welcomed.
I'm thinking of the Wheatsheaf: two minutes walk from Ealing Broadway.

i've put my name down but i've just looked at a map and ealing looks like its bloody miles from london

:(

will there be crash space for a drunken fool? the last tube back will be too early i'm guessing

cheeky scamp, Ealing is the Queen of the Suburbs:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ealing

Last tube is about 12.30 on a Saturday, and there may be crashing facilities back at mine.

the last train back from waterloo to guildford is at 9 minutes past midnight i think. probably best to opt for the crashage option then.

When? When did you make these other plans, hmm?

You've been signed up for this since June 13th so you can just jolly well cancel these so-called other plans or you'll be the worst for it, you mark my words, not by a long chalk, and other spiffing sayings like that.

it`s often quicker (less waitage.. you know what choobs are like) to avoid the change onto the district line for ealing broadway and jump off at north ealing instead and dander down
