Hope yous all enjoy the meet up...look forward to seeing how everyone gets on. Will hopefully be able to get to one of the next meetups (although my only next planned London trip is in June). Sure we can work on June. Suggest a date and we will come up with something. So far I will be there 9-12 June. So if anyones free then, feel free to try and arrange a meetup lol |

Also sorry to miss out so close to the event. I could come before my scan, but I'd be the only one there and standing outside in the cold!

See you at noon! Then it's The Life's first preview for me and trip to Dartford afterwards  And then early morning flight to -6 and snow Stasia there are no trains to Dartford tomorrow from Waterloo East, Charing Cross or London Bridge. They are only running from London Victoria. Or if you are at Elephant and Castle for the Life jump on bus 136 from there and change on a train at Lewisham. Because of the above I cannot make it, I will be see the Wedding Singer in the afternoon, then a drive up to Islington for the Almeida for Hamlet. Thanks for the heads up! Google also suggests trains from Blackfriars/Pechkam Rye/Denmark Hill, do you know if these work? (Obviously it would be a very quick run for me, I would never plan a first preview starting at 3 and a show out of town in one day, but...) |

Nationalrail.co.uk says the blackfriars trains are running so you should be ok - worth checking there rather than Google as it will give you live delay information and google doesn't always take account of engineering works

I'm now unexpectedly busy this afternoon so am afraid I won't make it, but I'll see anyone who's going to 42nd Street or Rachel Tucker's gig tonight later!

As I say jump on bus 136 to Lewisham it takes 20/30 minutes, you will have more trains available to you than the stations you mention, which only have a 30 minute service. I live in this area. |

It's a lovely day and I couldn't think of nothing better than sitting outside by the Thames with a pint and likeminded people, alas I can't because of engineering works and prior bookings, but that doesn't stop me wishing everyone a fabulous time.

Same here.
As no one was there I left and did a bit of window shopping in Covent Garden but will head on down there again.
Description is provided above and yes, I too am wearing my badge.

I am here right now. It's pretty busy, inside and out.
I am sitting on a beach outside, right at the entrance to the bar.
If you walk into the bar you will literally walk right past me.
