Sounds good mate. I only have an hour but can get round quite quickly on the bike. Any preferences on where to meet?
I'm on The Strand. Bank of England?

By Bank tube station? If so Google recons I can cycle there in 10 mins.

Not sure what's round there, but there must be something half decent.

Goodmans is round the corner from bank. Not pushing it just a suggestion if your looking for some where decent and reasonable near by.

Hopefully the info is useful but if not just poke me in the eye next time you see me (blush)

There's a pub called the Bank of England on the Strand. How far away is that from you?

I came through london today but only on a quick connection.

If I pass by and have a wait I'll meet up with you if you fancy it.

Not sure if still on but used to be bike Meet at Borough Market on a Wednesday if you have an hour to kill before heading home to family chaos. You could always say your train was delayed and you had a nightmare commute ;) probably get the sympathy vote when you get in as well. Win Win (y) haha

Borough Market is over the river. I need to be close to Euston Station to get home. Happy to meet up though. I should be done in Court about 4.30. Train ticket is open so I can get a later train home tomorrow.

That's a 10 min walk, not even worth getting the bike out of the lock up for.

What time do you want to meet, 12:30?

I guess you can't win them all.. Was good to meet up today though, well check out the dates of the NEC and see if I can make it up.

I never usually drink during the day, but as I met kwacky the the pub yesterday and I don't have to drive anymore I thought why not. Well that bit me on the arse!! The big boss of the department turned up and wanted to be introduced to the new starters. Oooops...

Oh no good Kwacky, but hopefully there was something to take out of the experience.

Nutz.. crap, did you get sprung for it or cover OK? Can't imagine you were completely sozzled!

Nah, nothing mentioned. Just not really the professional image I usually present, and a case of unfortunate timing.

change my card details on lord knows how many sites it's registered on. It's a bit worrying when you do it in one go and realise just how many websites have your payment details.
