Posted March 24, 2014 Do you have a suggested location? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 24, 2014 not yet, specifically, although london is probably the easiest place for all people to go to, trainwise (though im super biased being a londoner myself) 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 24, 2014 Yeah London is very easy to get to. I'd suggest (for ease of non-londoners) that we choose a pub near to one of the main stations, so there isn't a massive possibility of getting lost, or that if there is a large enough people getting a train that we all meet there and go to a pub from there. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 24, 2014 @sabrina, do you want to add location of residence to the poll to see which is the best station to meet near? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi new person. I doubt most will be free friday, since friday is a week day filled with work. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) Hi new person. I doubt most will be free friday, since friday is a week day filled with work. My work schedule means weekends arent great so I just ticked the ones i can fully commit to. If another date is decided on the weekend I cant guarantee attendance, but will do my best. This also heavily depends on what time this would be starting, I live/work in London so not a problem for me to meet in evenings.

Posted March 26, 2014 April the 19th seems to be a popular date. How would everyone feel agreeing to do it then? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2014 Of all Saturdays that would probably the best for me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2014 http://www.evansandpeel.com/ In terms of what to do Sabrina, being a master of finding artful places filled with culture, recommended this bar. You get a case and you (presumably) solve it over the evening over drinks and food. Would people want an eventful evening like that? Or something more laid back? The mystery of the stolen Sanderson Manuscript. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The mystery of the stolen Sanderson Manuscript. Ive tried to reply to this 3 times now and my browser keeps crashing rarrrgh When I went there we didnt get to properly solve a case but you have to pretend to have one to get in, its got a very prohibition/speakeasy vibe and is pretty darn cool. can be pricey though - london always is - beer £4-5 cocktails £9-11 but really good cocktails. There are normal pubs in that area too though. Brotherhood without banners always met at this pub near oxford circus though i forgot the name... other cool places ive seen: http://www.eerie-pubs.co.uk/london-stone/Find-Us http://www.partyearth.com/london/clubs/606-club-2/#review Ooh! thought! 'be at one' is fairly reasonable (london wise) and there are several about and you can reserve areas and 2 for 1 cocktails during the happy hours. the happy hours vary from bar to bar but we can look for the one with the longest might be worth going to a standard pub place so we can chat though. Thoughts? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2014 Not being an expert in pubs, I defer to any suggestions. I would check for age restrictions, though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 26, 2014 1. Not sure if I'll be able to make 19th, but will try. 2. I don't really mind where we go, so long as it allows 16s and over, and we get a map. Is there going to be anyone else getting the train? 3. What kind of time of day? Are we going to have a meal as well? Are we going to do optional meal? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thoughts? Crashing browsers are annoying. Browsers should all save your text. Old Explorer Pub? Phoenix? Be at one looks very fancy. I don't really mind one way or the other, since I can't visit I can't really judge them. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 26, 2014 I should hopefully be fine on that date. And I don't mind where it is so I'll leave it up to you guys. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 27, 2014 I should be ok for the 19th (so long as my wife will sign the day release paperwork that is ) Can get the morning train down on Sat and back on Sun. As for location, anywhere that we can drink and dine is cool with me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2014 I am game for this! I work Mon-Fri so weekends work best, but if there is enough notice I can book a day off in the week 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 31, 2014 I am game for this! I work Mon-Fri so weekends work best, but if there is enough notice I can book a day off in the week We're going to try to make the 19th. I earlier googled asoiaf pubs and found the Old Explorer Pub and Phoenix. If Sabrina or someone checks those out to see if they are decent maybe we could go to one of them. I suppose I could check them out today, though it's somewhat off my route. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 1, 2014 I'll look into it and see if my friend can remember which one it was 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 3, 2014 I'm actually going to be down in London on the 19th, so depending on what my plans end up being I'll try and come along. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 4, 2014 And here I was assuming this place would be more American focused. Anyone coming up from the South - West? I'd love to come to a meet, so long as no one minds being ambushed by a really new, unknown member. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
