And we have no idea what a good pub is in the area. If there isn't one, another area should be fine. The nearest reasonable pub to your hotel is the Princess Victoria, a few minutes walk east. It's what you get when you take a typical British boozer and actually clean it and serve decent beer. The prices are a bit fearsome and it's a trek even from Shepherd's Bush, which is why I rarely go there. It's not suitable for a social, but it is somewhere to wet your throat and get fed near your hotel. How about the Bridge House? It's a London.pm favourite, and it's near the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, so fits in with your tourist plans.

For future reference, that's not actually true. Non-subscriber mail hits the moderation queue, and human non-subscribers usually then get whitelisted so that they don't need further moderation. Now, you likely won't see a *reply* unless you're subscribed, but that's a different colour of bikeshed ... :-) Ah, what I meant was, I have no idea how to set up headers to make an email out of the blue be a reply, or get it in the same thread as the other I made out of the blue. I dunno enough about email headers. Lawlz. I saw replies easily enough on the archive. So, was apologising for basically starting a whole new thread on the same subject as earlier. -Mallory
Re: beer? weekend of the 24th June in London
So, Bridge House at 18 Tower Bridge Road, London on Saturday evening 25th June? (DuckDuckGo brought up another Bridge House in London but this one seemed correct) I'm looking at the suggestions of Nicholas, and wondering who is best as sponsor of this. I suppose first we'd have to know who thinks they can make it... and of them, who's a good candidate. cheers, -Mallory On Mon, Jun 06, 2011 at 11:42:13AM +0100, Peter Corlett wrote: How about the Bridge House?

If someone is willing to do it, they will volunteer themselves. I'm normally unavailable on saturdays, or I'd do it. /j
