I am in London (UK) from 3rd to 8th (August).

Little POG meetup in some PUB would be nice. I was thinking about 6th, but other suggestions are fine too.

Necro should come too and hopefully Gad can make it this time.

Possibly in. Could definitely do Thursday or Friday evenings, Saturday a bit trickier.

I can't do Saturday. Friday would be ideal, Thursday doable.

I expect to meet Donk, Necro, Mexineil and Bloobird on Friday.

Do you prefer 6PM; 7PM; some other time? I am flexible.

Place will be named by Bloobird.

Anyone else coming?

6pm works for me. Trying to think of where might not be too packed on a Friday - idk what part of London is best for people? St Pancras/Euston easiest for me, but can do most Zone 1.

MFCMark & I should be able to make it yeah. We both live South, but can do anywhere Central too - priority should be finding somewhere serviceable which isn't going to be rammed.

It's not a wonderful location, but the Sourced market in St Pancras has a small bar that sells really good beer, and it's rarely too busy because no-one really stops there for that long. Potentially could do a couple there then move onto somewhere more interesting once the immediate post-work rush moves on?

Alternately, somewhere like Mabel's Tavern or McGlynn's are thoroughly uninspiring pubs but they're rarely too busy and they're not BAD, just mediocre.

If the weather is nice (lol?) we could drink outside at the South Bank centre for a bit, then there's plenty of places around Waterloo.

I stay at Necros place and something central is fine for both of us. I just finished taking antibiotics and I am not fully recovered, but hopefully I will be fine for Friday.

Wow. Fair. Didn't know.
So how do you still have ties with/know all that local Scottish music?

I would preferc place that is not outside. I am not feeling too well and would like to avoid places where it might be windy. I will def be there tomorrow, but i might not drink much if i am feeling worse.
