London calling..... Christmas do.... Ying Tong.... 8th December 2011....

[Wapping]

Last year we (and my purple leg) hobnobbed at the Tai Pan and it wasn't bad.

How about we do something similar (or different) this year?

Date?

I propose: THURSDAY 08 DECEMBER - subject to availability of venue(s).

If bods would be as kind as to flag up their interest, I'll see what I can do to fix something up for, say, twenty bods if last year was anything to go by.

I'd like to say provisionally yes if thats OK Richard.

 

[David Lee]

Me Please, can you confirm the date though, as I need to book a hotel. Not planning on driving home

 

[Wapping]

We are cooking on gas - 08 December is confirmed

I have spoken to Fun.

We have got the upstairs room again.

This time we have an added extra, karaoke!

I will drop by the restaurant sometime reasonably soon to sort out the fine tuning

Room booked from 19:30ish / 20:00 for 20 bods.

For any bods staying over, it's getting into The City's party season, so the hotels will start to fill up. I suggest you start making bookings before too long and share a room, perhaps..... as there probably won't be much beneath a ton a night. Start with Travelodge, is my tip.

Booked up the Holiday Inn Express just down the road.

Looking forward to it

Sounds good - count me in.

(Blimey, £99 a night for the Holiday Inn Express! Think I'll be driving unless I can find somewhere cheaper...)

 

[David Lee]

I am sure this is a ligitimate company expense.......
