    For those of you who aren't detoxing/dieting this January, we'll be having drinks at the Counting House on Cornhill nearest tube is bank though it is walking distance from Monument and Liverpool Street.

    Thought we'd try a selection of new venues this year.

    I should be there from 5ish.
    If only the drinks were on Friday.
    If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.

        Well this time make sure you behave youselves. I've heard about these NSFW London CUK meet-ups. NSFW, NSFW, NSFW.
        My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.

          That's what happens when there is only one kebab left in the shop at chucking out time.

            Can those of you coming along this evening have a think about a new venue that we can trial?

            Pre requisites:

            Central
            Good beer selection
            Ability to get somewhere to sit
            Ability to have a conversation without having to shout over bad rock music (xmas bash)
            Not touristy

                Do I detect a hint of sarcasm?

                  I might wander down for a couple. Not sure yet. What should I look out for? I don't fancy just wandering up to randoms asking if I know them from the net!
                  Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

                  I preferred version 1!

                    I have been meaning for over a year to print off the ContractorUK logo A4 size and get it laminated, specifically to take to piss-ups.

                    Have you got access to a colour printer?

                      I believe the usual means of identification is a copy of Computer Weekly, prominently displayed.
