Uh... any specific point in London? At any particular time? Or is this 
just a mass migration? ;-)

It's a *big* thread [now]. ;-)

._.

Woah. That's epic. I'm blown away by the epicness of this...



Are you sitting down?



I have a prior arrangement on that particular day.

(!!)

In fact, this is the only day in the rest of my life that I actually 
have a something planned for. And since this plan involves copious 
quantities of hot young single girls... sorry old chap. ;-)

[OMG, I'm spending a saturday night at a hotel with a bunch of girls. I 
can almost *feel* my geek points nose-diving! AND I DON'T CARE! :-D LOL]

I don't want to make it an all night-er as I'm a bit "cream crackered"
from my trip to South Holland. Would six o'clock suit you? I would
probably go for a meal in the Wong Kei, beforehand. Where you would be
welcome to join me unless you think that on a Saturday it might be too
much of a good thing?

Six sounds fine to me. prob won't be able to join you in Wong Kei much
as I like the place. :-( Got a small job to do in afternoon.
I will be easily recognisable in Jack Horner (corner Bayley Street and
TCR) by being only person working on laptop with stuffed Linux penguin
next to it :-)
cu soon

You like the Wong Kei and use Linux? 
I went in and had a drink the weekend before last and I noticed all
the guest beers. (This is bringing an image to mind.) Judging by a
couple of customers, if they could type then Linux Rulz! :)
If you drop me a line I will give you my mobile number.

just have to say "What the heck, sod everything else in my life right now",

     Anyway, whether it's April or not, it'll happen.  :)

You do know that we will speak about you? :)
And about Andrew who is spending the night under the same roof as a
bevy of beautiful, boozy, blood testers. :)

Thanks for the greetings and don't stay up for the Apocalypse better
to wait for Ragnarok.
The "light Show" should be better :)
