Venue
Now confirmed:
The venue is the same location as last year in Victoria.

71 Vincent Square
London SW1P 2PA

We should have some space set aside for us and to keep us away from the normal folk
This is close to Victoria railway and tube stations, so plenty of mainline rail connections, and the Victoria, District, and Circle tube lines.
There may be some small free snacks provided (crisps and the like), and the bar does have a food menu which you can order from if you need some nibbles.
