Any interest in a "CCR pre-Do" earlier that day ?
Along the lines of booking a throwaway RFS, into the CCR at 11:00, out at 17:00 and jumping on the Tube/Hex to the Do venue proper ? Just a thought... Not sure whether it breaches BA rules on lounge use tho ;) |

Yup... I'm definitely up for that but would need guesting into CCR or make it GF and I can guest someone in! Well worth 4000 Avios and £17.50 :)
Not sure whether it breaches BA rules on lounge use tho ;) Esp. if 50 people show up on a bunch of dom or close short haul, then all cancel, but who knows ... maybe BA won't notice at all. I wonder how many would have to do this to raise a flag over and above usual and customary no show rates. |

I’m heading home to MAN that afternoon so may see you in the CCR if you’re on the afternoon flight. |
It looks like a small CCR do, I better ask Pieto to get me a cabana!

I certainly wouldn't be willing to gamble my CCR card and BAEC account on it.
Good point :( |

I think my flight is somewhere around that time too, see you then ^

What about actually flying a return RFS. 8000 Avios and £35. OK not as good as sitting in the CCR drinking LPGS (or whatever they are serving) but you would get a B2B to somewhere included... I am thinking Manchester (?).... and we could visit the lounge legitimately then.
Just thinking aloud! |
Welcome to the newcomers who have joined since I last posted. Wiki is all updated now. Everyone is welcome!

I know it is a way off yet but any progress on venue? I have to overnight in London (coming up from Cornwall!) so the sooner I know where the sooner I can book accommodation. :)

Afternoon all,
I'm pleased to announce the location of this year's FT Summer Party: PERGOLA ON THE ROOF Pergola Paddington, 5 Kingdom Street, Paddington Central, W2 6PY With a magnum of LP Rose for only £170, and a coke for £2.50, there's something for everyone in the drinks department - and, for those that need to line their stomachs, the food choices are excellent too! For more information you can check out the website here https://pergolalondon.com/pergola-paddington , or for the important bits, see the menus attached. I look forward to seeing you there! |
Updated wiki with venue address and moved myself from possible to confirmed. The Novotel across the road isn't too badly priced. Member rate for two nights was 330 euros.
