London Do! (end of September)
 
A few other FTers and myself have gotten in on a great fare to LHR ex-ORD towards the end of september. Will anybody be in London around the dates of 9/25-9/29ish? Post your dates here (including you London locals!) and let's figure out what date will work best for everybody. Looking forward to seeing London for the first time as I know some others are!

Hmmm, I'll be in VIE then. Maybe I can pop up and over for a couple days. Will keep this in mind. :)

halothane Jun 23, 2008 4:27 pm

Boxo!
It would be wonderful to have you join us! Hop onto EasyJet and take a day trip my friend!

Why doesn't everyone PM me their dates in London and I will keep my above posting updated with the flight information.

Wainwright Jun 24, 2008 6:22 pm

I got in on the deal with December dates...

Arr: Dec 18 at 22:00

Dep: Dec 22 at 15:25

Thinking about picking up another for dates in September but I have to work out the $$$ on a place to crash etc.

halothane Jun 25, 2008 7:17 pm

Sorry for the delay in updating this thread. I have been away from FT for a few days (out of my control!). For those of you who will not be in London at the end of September you might want to start your own Do thread as we won't be there then :D

bschaff1 Thank you for starting a list and keeping up with it! I appreciate it.

Boxo Let me know ASAP when you decide if you are going to come and see me! I am only going to be in London a limited number of days as I want to get some time in in a few other cities.

Insidetheplane Will definitely meet up with you. I will also check my flight info and let you know if we're on the same flights. I still can't get .bomb to show it (imagine).



Any local London FTers browsing this thread that would like to join us for a pint and a bite to eat?

redbeard911 Aug 29, 2008 3:34 pm

I am in. :) Keep me posted.

Savage25 Aug 29, 2008 6:20 pm

I'd join you lot, but I'm headed to the SQTalk VIE Do that weekend.

halothane Aug 30, 2008 12:09 am

I will arrive LHR on Thursday Sept 25. InsideThePlane will be arriving either the 25th or the 26th. We'll be in town until Monday morning (if I remember correctly). Any local Londoners that would like to join us or advise us what/where we should go?

boxo Aug 30, 2008 12:48 am

Thanks to redbeard911 for bumping this up.

I'm not sure exactly where I'll be, but won't rule this out completely. If it's cheaper than THF DO and Villach, I'd be happy to meet up.

GregL Aug 30, 2008 3:23 pm

I'll be there the 20th and 21st.

GregL Sep 18, 2008 7:53 pm

Anyone in London this Saturday or Sunday interested in meeting for dinner?

Greg

Foady Sep 21, 2008 6:46 pm

I will be in London 9/26 - 9/29, staying at Sheraton Park Towers.

InsideThePlane Sep 21, 2008 7:01 pm

I'm in at 10:00 pm on Friday the 26th. I know Halothane is in LHR on the
25th as we're planning to meet up when I get in.

As this is my first time to London, I don't really know where the Sheraton is but I'm staying at Marriott County Hall. Halothane is there as well.

I'm back to ORD on Sunday the 28th. I think Halothane is off to Paris on the 29th. Anyone else? I'd be up for meeting for a pint somewhere if the logistics work.

Foady Sep 22, 2008 1:43 am

We're on the same ORD-IAD-LHR flights on 9/26.

From Google Maps, it looks like you're close to the Charing Cross tube stop and I'm close to the Knightsbridge tube stop. About 1.8 miles apart.

redbeard911 Sep 22, 2008 5:20 am

Any thoughts on a meet-up? Miss Redbeard and I are going to the theatre for a Saturday matinee, but that night or Sunday night is free.

halothane Sep 22, 2008 7:47 am

Saturday night sounds great to me. I'm pretty sure InsideThePlane would be game for Saturday night. Would love to meet up with some other FTers.



Halothane

InsideThePlane Sep 22, 2008 9:59 pm

Thanks to Redbeard911 for suggesting the Globe at the Baker St tube stop. (Hopefully I got that right). I'm open to that for Saturday night and since the weekend is getting close if that's agreeable to anyone who might be in town and may be interested, let's move on to picking a time. Thoughts?

Foady, I look forward to meeting you on Friday.

Foady Sep 22, 2008 11:49 pm

What time Saturday?

Foady Sep 22, 2008 11:57 pm

Yup... see you on Friday.

redbeard911 Sep 23, 2008 5:15 am

How about 6?

The Globe is easy to get to. Walk outside the Baker Street tube stop and there it is. It's a bit of a tourist area, but a good place to meet.

InsideThePlane Sep 23, 2008 11:53 am

How can anyone go wrong with a place that has "beerintheevening" in their URL? :D

I'm completely good with whatever time works for everyone else. I'm back to ORD on Sunday so sleep between 10pm Friday and 4:00 on Sunday is optional.

I will also be at the Globe at 6pm tomorrow.

InsideThePlane Sep 30, 2008 10:51 am

Thanks again to Redbeard911 for suggesting the Globe. A nice enough place with good beer.

Redbeard911, Foady, SEAUAKID, it was nice to meet all of you. I enjoyed all the great conversation. Halothane, good to see you as always. Safe travels on your journey through France and Spain.

I'll try and post a link to the photos over the weekend.

Foady Oct 1, 2008 5:07 am

I agree... it was nice to meet everyone Saturday night! SEAUAKID, how's that Black Friday Do planning coming along?
