Normally I would be up for this, but I will be on a train to NY (on my way to a crossword tournament) that afternoon. Have a glass of sherry for me.

Wish I could, but I leave for London at about 4 pm, connecting on Sunday to a VN flight first to HAN, then for a month in Australia. Good business class fares LHR-MEL/SYD.

We would love to join you guys but an evening in CC is not possible for me this week. I had a knee replacement a month ago and it is all I can do to get thru a day's work out here near Tysons Corner. 
So we will miss you this time around but will be back the week before Labor Day.

Will be at Jaleo around 4:45 ... will be there for an
hour unless someone else (FlyerBeek?) joins, then
longer. You remember what I look like - Chinese guy
in the throes of early senility.

in terms of a venue, I have been wanting to try the all you can eat mezze at Ambar in Clarendon, but I am open to other suggestions.

You pick the day but just this time I request a venue a bit further west since I do not know how the knee will be holding up next week.

Last minute I know but I'll be in DC for work on Wednesday. I'm on an 8:10 Pm flight home from DCA and wouldn't mind a drink or two beforehand. I'll be free at 5 PM on
