Central London meet up

Both dates are fine, as long as it's lunch not tea or dinner. I have an early evening commitment on Tuesdays.

Both suit

The 14th would suit me better too.

I am free on 14th but not 28th.

I can do either date :-)

Not "found", GET" ROUND" <sigh at my typos>

Tuesday? Can't do Tuesday's -ever-in fact most weekdays are a bit of a problem.
We had the first Birmingham one on a Saturday. Is that not a possibility? It would get found "granny duties" , after school childcare and other regular commitments as well as opening this up to working grans.

Any more for either of these two dates please? Anyone from HQ?

Either for me also

date

At the moment either sate suits me

OK lets try for dates first how about June 14th or June 28th - any takers?

I'm definitely up for this. I'm in SW London, and anywhere is OK for me to get to. Other SW Londoners may be interested to know that there's a Merton meet-up happening soon - go to the Merton Local site and sign up if interested.

Pittcity I could be wrong but I doubt if we could book a room if we were not having eg lunch.

Maybe somewhere where we could book a room for a larger number would be easier than a table in a cafe?

Teetime what I did was to ask everyone interested which dates they couldn't make, then cross all those off. Unfortunately I was then left with exactly none that were OK for everyone, so I had to put the dates where only one person would be disappointed into a hat (a pudding basin, actually) and pick one out.

What I will do is find 2 dates and see how many people respond then find a venue accordingly given the time and date in respect of being able to book a table etc. Probably difficult to suit everyone but I would have thought not in school holidays as grandparents may be on caring duties and everywhere will be busy.

Just a thought, last time I was in the V&A café it was packed. If we're talking mid summer.......

Wow we're going to need a bigger table ...

I live in NW London and work in central London so travelling isn't an issue for me.

Yes,if Im around I too would love to come prefer a central location near to transport?

I think the venue would depend on the number of people going.
Teetime will need to speak to Elegran for her planning tips.

I don't mind! We're spoilt for choice ...

The National Gallery do a wonderful tea:-) and the view is lovely !

Or any of the nice hotels ? I know we probably don't want to spend a fortune but tea at The Berkley ( near Harrods) is epic !!

Why not somewhere like John Lewis in Oxford Street?
