Apologies all but due to a change in management wanting a ridiculously high minimum spend the venue is changing.

It's only a ten min walk from the original and we have much more space and a friendly management team to look after us :)

New venue will be downstairs in the private room of the union bar.

I'll update the wiki etc tomorrow and apologies again and sorry if it's an inconvenience to anyone.

Address -

88-90 George St, Marylebone, London W1U 8PA

Thanks teledude for organising an alternative venue at such short notice! I am looking forward to it :-)

Are you barred at the new place? :p

Also, have to change to 'not attending' - nothing to do with a venue change, just a last minute mileage run, so won't be in the UK on the 15th.

If he is, then I expect them to go bust in the next couple of months.

Anyone hoteling it locally ? And yes I know its London prices (which are only marginally less than about 3 x those here in Prague).. But for me its either that or a very late train to FNB (Farnborough main station) after flying in.

Please put me down as a tentative. I fly in from LAS on the 15th and am on the 2115 Scotrail sleeper service to Montrose (1S25 / 1A25 if anyone is interested) but may try and pop by to say hello!

Considering the rate of drinking that goes on it must have been truly ridiculous! No worries, much appreciate the effort.

Thanks for sorting this out teledude. I have updated the wiki with the new venue details.

I shall be there :)

hsmall Dec 3, 2017 7:43 am

My apologies but owing to more than usual incompetence by me I will not be there. I had forgotten that we are going on the last stage of an ex-EU to Rome that weekend. Enjoy, everyone!

The Club Quarters St. Paul's has rooms for £116. I usually stay there and can recommend it. The Hilton London Metropole is about the same price.
