CUK summer drinks - location.

[alreadypacked]

They had when I checked just now, as long as you're OK with £199/night

The place I'm in appears to have a room available for the two nights at an average £137/night, but you might end up having to use the Tube.

Looks like you're too late for the deal I got offering a Business Class King-Size room - very nice last time, too

Double check the hotel if I were you, I think it is the same one as a friend of mine stayed in, currently undergoing large refit.

The windows in her room were boarded over, room was like an oven.

Aha - you coming along to this AP? You said you might be able to make it...

Nope I am flying down - working tomorrow and Friday down there anyway and flight back to manc from London City so I don't want to be too far from Bank cos then I can get the DLR and keep away from that God awful tube thing.

There are a few hotels around Southwark Bridge road (well within staggering distance of the pub and would be a cheapish cab ride to Bank - the Southwark Rose seems to be OK). Think there is also one next to the Anchor pub (might be called the Anchor ).

It seems safe around there - at least I've taken the beer scooter home on a number of occasions and never felt worried.

It was fine a few weeks back

<checks Leicester Square webcams>

Still looks fine - was this one of the rooms round the back? I go for the ones with the tall windows overlooking Leicester Square

UPDATE: I can see two of my erstwhile colleagues having a ciggy outside the office

Possible attendees update:

15 confirmed (With one suspected alias)
1 highly likely but enjoying messing me about, aren't you WP.
4 with difficult travel arrangements, will try to get there
1 with '5%' possibility of turning up

And the non-responders, including Bear! Bear? Beeeaaar...

sorry - it's all been a bit busy recently.

It's going to be a last minute decision for me i'm afraid. Depends on how much work i need to do. I'm only 10mins walk or so from Borough Markets though.

And i'll need to get going early as Mrs Bear is off out later.

Anybody else noticed that this is happening on the night of the Full Moon

I was viewing the deranged ranting that has characterised most of the posts in General today and realised that there must be some external force at work to get the pack raving like this... Lord knows what they'll be like tomorrow with a few beers inside them

Are we doing the red carnation bit?
