There is no such thing as „no late night“ when teledude is there though...

Love the site and reading about the great meet ups and tier point runs but have never taken the plunge. We are lowly blues and have only ever made silver and so don't have much experience. Would love to attend but not sure what to expect.

Hi bubbah. The fact that you are blue, silver, orange, pink, or green doesn’t matter, you are more than welcome. There will be others there who have never been to a Do before too. Basically it’s just a very mixed group of people meeting up and having a drink together. Don’t worry, it’s not serious and we won’t be spending the evening talking about boring things like new seats!

Probably because someone will somehow manage to bring one along so everybody can try it instead of merely talk about it

Can you put me on the list as a maybe please. I'm out the evening before, so I may or may not fancy another trek into central London...
