[ANNOUNCE] London.pm Dim Sum, Thursday 16th October, Docklands
Hi all, London Perl Mongers will meet for lunchtime Dim Sum on Thursday at the Lotus Floating Chinese Restaurant: http://www.lotusfloating.co.uk/ Dim Sum involves sharing a selection of small dishes amongst a group: http://www.lotusfloating.co.uk/menu/dim_sum_menu.html It's a couple of minutes walk away from Crossharbour DLR and about a ten minute walk away from Canary Wharf tube: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/169119484#map=17/51.49782/-0.01526 We visited this restaurant in March and enjoyed it. If you plan to attend, please let me know so I can warn the restaurant of our numbers in advance. Everyone's welcome for a casual lunch eating tasty treats whilst discussing Perl and related matters. Let's meet outside the restaurant at 1pm (if you work in the same office as me, we'll leave 10 minutes beforehand). Tom
RE: Dim Sum tomorrow Joy King Lau
Sue Spence wrote It's been a month or so since the last Thursday dim sum, so I would like to propose meeting up for some dumplings, steamed buns and other tasty treats. FYI: I'm on the digest form of the list and it turned up in my email at Thursday 12:10pm which is a bit late to decide to go. I'm not precisely sure the algorithm the list digest uses to decide when to send things out but I would guess it's something along the lines of which ever is the sooner of - 24 hours after a post is received - more than a certain number of posts are received Aka - maybe send these things out on Tuesday...

Or just sign up to the list as a list. The traffic volume isn't going to overwhelm you.

That's a shame, but Sue helpfully also posted to the low volume announcement list and I added it to our Google Calendar last night. Please consider tracking either of these if you want to find out about events in a more timely way. Thank you, Sue, for organising Dim Sum: I hope everyone who could make it is having tasty food and interesting conversation. Tom

There's london.pm-announce, which exists for people who want announcements of important stuff (like dim sum) without all the chat. But, as Joel points out, the raw list doesn't have anywhere near the traffic that it used to have[1]. Dave... [1] Before Perl died :-)

I couldn't send it out on Tuesday because I hadn't decided to do it until Wednesday. On the bright side, we'll probably do that again and soon.

London.pm Dim Sum, Canary Wharf, Thursday 14th March 1pm
It's been a bloody long while since I summed dims, dimmed sums or ate delicious dumplings. Given that I spend far too much of my time around Canary Wharf, I miss most of the list-organised ones. Accordingly, it's time I stopped being lazy and organised one. We did this one a very long time ago and I seem to recall we had a little difficulty getting seated, so if you know in advance you want to attend, please email off list; the fewer ransomers we have on the day, the higher our chances. Royal China, 30 Westferry Circus, London E14 8RR 1PM. Be there or be hungry :) Cheers, James

It's been longer than an arbitrarily small time period since I've had dim sum in the company of venerable mongers, so tomorrow we shall remedy this. If you suspect you may be a little late, and you give me a clue to expect you, the odds of not playing musical tables may be fortuitously increased. 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 quid cash) eating tasty dim sum (steamed and fried dumplings), then go our separate ways.

London.pm Dim Sum Pearl Liang Thursday 1pm
Someone told me that if I organised dim sum at Pearl Liang they would come. Whoever that was now has a chance, for that is my choice this week. Please let me know if you intend on coming as the staff get annoyed when we ask for a table for 2 please, no wait 3 please, no wait 5, no wait 8, no wait 10 please. There will also be a heretics meeting that day, in sunny south London: http://london.pm.org/pipermail/london.pm-announce/2010-March/000180.html It being a heretical meeting I couldn't possibly attend. If you spot someone who looks like me, that'll actually be my evil twin. It's easy to tell us apart: he doesn't wear orange. The real official social is next week, and I shall be attending that. It's also south of the river, but only just: http://london.pm.org/pipermail/london.pm-announce/2010-March/000179.html 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.

I'm sorry, non-Thursday dim sum was confusing. I'll make it up to you! I'll organise a dim sum on a Thursday! Well actually, I read this positive review of a place just by Chinatown that we haven't been to yet. It has roasted meats!

Re: London.pm Dim Sum Young Cheng Thursday 1pm
- Original Message From: Léon Brocard a...@astray.com Also on Thursday is the technical meeting at the BBC: Ah, crap! I just found out today that you'll be there and it would be good if I can get the BBC Club to arrange the staff for our incredible ability to consume mind-altering substances (alcohol, that is). I'll try to remember that tomorrow. Wouldn't want you folks to run dry.
