Lol, well, it's only 'cause I was chatting about it with Ja'Ph' last night and he queried it so I went and checked on Google Maps, otherwise I wouldn't have remembered myself :D.

Cool!! That's one transfer away for us (we're on Holloway Rd. between the Picadilly and Victoria line stops), so nbd. What time are you all planning to meet there? At least some of us (definitely me!) will make a jet-lagged attempt to get there on time :)

Eh, we should have enough +2s to cover you, meerkat. We don't really need that Christopher chap showing up, do we? :-)

Oh wow, 12 like noon-12? We might be a bit late if it is that early, but we'll be there! How late will it run do you suppose?

It's billed as "all day" but that really means 10:30pm, I don't know if there's anywhere near by we could decamp to after that.

As UK Games Expo is now over and I've gotten some sleep, time for the June Sentinetls Day to be worked out. As tomorrow seems a little short notice, we have 18th or 25th of June, both at ISH. Any preferences?

I'll get back to you once I've checked with Ja'Ph'. By the way, what time did the >G guys turn up the other week? Was it ages after I left?

About 5: 30, I think, so yeah. Quite a while after you left.

I just realized... I'm going to be in London on Friday!  This thread is relevant for me!  Well, not really.  It's a family vacation so I definitely won't be sneaking off to play card games while I'm there. :(

Oh yes, good point. I seem to be somewhat sporadic in remembering to sign up - sometimes I remember consistently for days before sign-ups are active and then either forget or remember once they are...and sometimes like this time, I completely forget about sign-up until I see the post here, even though I haven't forgotten when the next meet-up is :P.

I will likely be in London for a few days around January 1, 2018. Just putting that out there =)

Ach, the most awkward time of year to arrange a meet-up, lol. We tend to skip December and have the next meet be around the end of January if I can remember rightly. Lots of people tend to be (understandably ;)) busy around that time of year and the trains are usually kind of tricky. Maybe we can sort something out? I suppose it depends which specific days you're available - we meet at weekends because those are the days we're not at work and stuff, after all ;).

I know! We haven't booked anything yet but the idea is we want to go from Canada to (probably) Cyprus. Flying "directly" there is wacky expensive. Flying to London, then separately flying to Cyprus is quite reasonable. And London is fun! So we're looking at probably being in London from Dec 31 to perhaps Jan 4 for a stopover. I'll be sure to post more when we have details worked out!

Also as part of these travels we plan to be in Glasgow for May and somewhere nearby to Birmingham for June. So there can definitely be 2018 meetups later on if January doesn't work out.

We're going for either the 17th or the 24th but I'll get back to you with a specific date once Ja'Ph' knows which he prefers :).

I think it's probably gonna be best if we say the 24th for the next meet-up - I haven't spoken to Ja'Ph' for a few days since I got a text message from him saying his computer had broken, so I don't know when he'll be around next for me to ask him about dates. Hopefully not long :).

Okay, update! So, Ja'Ph's hard drive died and he's ordered a new one so hopefully that'll be sorted soon. He says he won't be able to make this month's meet-up again though, so I'm not fussed which day we do it on.

17th would be better for us, but whatever works.

I'm waiting to find out from Ja'Ph' if he can make it this month and on which day if so. I have noticed that your date list is wrong, though, Paul - all those dates are the Mondays, not the Sundays ;).

Hey just wanted to mention our London visit dates are set: Dec 30 - Jan 4. If that's not workable no problem. We'll be at UKGE 2018, and probably in London for a bit towards the end of June too.

Hehe...yeah, New Year is um...not really the best time to be attempting to travel into London by train ;). But I'm sure we can arrange something for elsewhen in the year :D.
