[ANNOUNCE] London Perl M[ou]ngers Social - Thursday 2010-02-04 - The Gunmakers, Clerkenwell EC1R 5ET

2010-02-02 Thread Dagfinn Ilmari Mannsåker
Because I suck and didn't get around to booking any other pub in time,
we're going back to the Gunmakers this Thursday (4 February), where the
lovely landlord Jeff always welcomes us with open arms, foamy beers,
non-foamy ciders and tasty meats!

Standard blurb:

Social meets are a chance for the various members of the group to meet
up face to face and chat with each other about things - both Perl and
non-Perl - and newcomers are more than welcome. The monthly meets tend
to be bigger than the other ad hoc meetings that take place at other
times, and we make sure that they're in easy to get to locations and the
pub serves food (meaning that people can eat in the bar if they want
to). They normally start around 6.30pm (or whenever people get there
after work) and a group tends to be left come closing time.

If you're a newcomer or other first timer (even if you've been lurking
on the mailing list or on IRC) then please seek Léon (the guy in orange
with a stuffed camel) out - we have a tradition that the leader of this
motley crew buys the new people a drink and introduces them to people.

I see a Chinatown in the future. It is... full of tasty things to eat.
We should go there. Also on Thursday is the social at the Gunmakers,
where I shall be giving away some books and wearing tigger ears:

London.pm dim sum is a social event where we meet up every Thursday at
1pm at a different Chinese restaurant, spend about an hour (and about
£10 cash) eating tasty dim sum (steamed and fried dumplings), then go
our separate ways.

Emergency at the Bree

2010-02-02 Thread David Hodgkinson

Due to an unexpected outbreak of thirst, there appears to be
a dire emergency which can only be slaked with foamy ale at
the Bree Louise. @peterdragon will be there shortly, others
will dribble in thereafter.
