There is the meet up before and afterwards so if it is the case for the standbys to get together for a meal elsewhere then we all meet up again that will be great. However, this isn't what I want and I really hope I can get everyone together at the same time in the restaurant.
In fact, I am going to take the bull by the horns and call them right now rather than wait until Monday.
As Arnie would say "I'LL BE BACK"

I had a booking for both the Hilton Grovesnor and Waldorf Astoria (WA in reward.) Hilton currently showing as sold out. Just canceled the Hilton and but don't know if this will just go back into ordinary inventory or if they may have even oversold so room won't become available.

Good news!
Jnr PETER01 is coming with me and the restaurant got back to me this morning and I have secured a cancellation. So we can now have 40 in total
Now, we have 3 standbys:
EDI_Martin
skye1
callahan44
I've PM'd you so if I could have a reply please that would be great!
TangoIndiaMike, can you confirm if you are able to come? I received a PM yesterday but I can't make it out for some reason. Many thanks.

Speaking of which, the wiki says there are 37 people attending, but only lists 36 including +1s. Do we have a mystery guest, Peter01? I think you may have mentioned this previously!

I've added your flights and hotel to the wiki, but not added your name to the list as Peter01 will be keeping an eye on this.

Maths was never my strong point and I'll go and do a recount.
Yes we do have a mystery guest but I can't say who she is!
I WILL........ guest whoever I like into the restaurant or at the Standing Order
