When I am back at my computer this evening I will update. Meanwhile, perhaps other attendees could ensure that they have chosen.

Soon I’m going to have to delete some unused stars. In anticipation of this let’s have images here, to facilitate future re-use of the technology. Theme:

Sorry, Julian, but I am not able to participate this time. I know that I am going to miss some good port and company and do wish you a pleasant evening.

Happily, my work commitments tomorrow appear to be finishing at 5pm and it is only a 30 minute walk to TCP. I may even be a few minutes earlier than the scheduled 18:00 start.AHB wrote:I'm happy to aim to start at 18:00, but might find work commitments delay me until slightly later.jdaw1 wrote:We should agree a start time. 18:00?

Excellent. Take the Central line to go from TCP to The Steak Exchange.

I am due to finish at 4pm in Westminster and will be in the general vicinity of TSE around 5pm just in case there is a beer emergency.

I don't think you made the TCP event where Julian and I had bone-in rib-eye steak for both starter and main course.PhilW wrote:hehe, maybe Alex is planning a steak/port Amuse Bouche at TCP before joining usjdaw1 wrote:Excellent. Take the Central line to go from TCP to The Steak Exchange.
Change of venue (from my imaginary venue to the one always planned) noted. I will endeavour to appear at the right location at roughly the right time. Please keep me advised of the location of any beer emergency remedial event.
Has anyone invited Christopher?

I may not be able to make 6.00 but please feel free to start without me. If you need to order on my behalf, i will not take a starter but would be happy to share one of the big steaks (rare or medium rare preferred) with bernaise, spinach and broccoli on the side (or otherwise rare individual rib-eye with bernaise, spinach and broccoli will do fine).jdaw1 wrote:We should agree a start time. 18:00?

A beer emergency has been declared. I am reliably informed that the emergency will occur at "Wetherspoons upstairs by the Bishopsgate exit - called something like Hamilton Hall". The exit in question being from Liverpool St Station.AHB wrote:Please keep me advised of the location of any beer emergency remedial event.

Unfortunately I am going to have to withdraw from tomorrow night's meeting due to family health issues. I have a feeling I'll be missing out on a very fine evening, but it is sadly unavoidable; my apologies and I hope you all have an excellent evening.

We have also lost RKA.
The placemats have been updated, but cannot be FTP’d from where I am. I will print.
