HOw many of us will there be?
I can try and book a table for dinner...

david_west

I'll be there. If we're going to that there Gerrards Corner place (which looks nice), then however many pitch up shouldn't be a problem - it's a big place!

I hope I can draw such a crowd on my next visit!

How is everyone doing - haven't been online nearly as much - Kate, David, and others - how are you holding up? any new stories David?

julia_t

Looking forward to it! See you then.

Kavey, please include my daughter Lisa and me. It will be great to see you again and meet new people as well.

Kavey

David, yeah true but if I can give them a rough idea we can get a table in the main restaurant rather than the windowless basement... no biggie though so I could just leave it...

First stop of the London GTG will be the Polar Bear on Lisle Street at 6 PM on October 25. From there we'll go to dinner at a nearby restaurant in Chinatown . Everyone is welcome. See you there.

Judy is already traveling and I'll be leaving the day after tomorrow, so I'm bringing this up again just in case anyone else will be in London and would like to join us.

If so, please post so that Kavey can make reservations.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Kavey

If I'm counting correctly there will be 7 of us:
Judy
Me
David
Kate
Carolyn
Lisa
Julia

I'll book for 8 incase one of the indefinites can make it. Couldn't book tonight - I think they might be closed, so I'll try tomorrow.

Kavey

OK I booked under "kavita" for 8 people at 7pm for the 25th.

caroline_edinburgh

Wish I could be there - maybe next time ! Have a good one.

Kavey

THANKS!

Haven't heard from Kate for a while... you still up for joining us, Mrs?

Kavey

Actually same Q for Julia - you're driving in or training in?

flygirl

hope to see photos and hear stories!

Hi Kavey....

Thank you for booking the table, I'm looking forward to next Tuesday.

I'm going to get the train in and as I couldn't really face the EasyHotel when I realised I didn't need the quad room I'd reserved at County Hall, I rebooked at the Selfridge thanks to a good deal at lastminute.com.

I'll aim to be at the Polar Bear as soon after 6pm as I can - I'm bringing my 14yo daughter to London and will have to make sure she is well settled with movies and picnic supper in the room (she doesn't want to join us even though she is fairly well-travelled for her age!).

So I will see you in a week's time. Until then.....

Kavey

Excellent, see you then!

Tonight's the night.

How will I recognise you all?

I'm easy to spot. I look like all the photofits on crimewatch (really I do).

Kate

uh oh, I might be in trouble tonight after all - big presentation tomorrow and loads still to do. May have to try and find you at the restaurant. Can someone email me on [email protected] and give me a contact number so I can text my progress?

Kate
