      Me too, but I've got to be up before dawn tomorrow so I can set off on my 'pilgrimage to Mecha' (sic) aka Sheffield, tomorrow morning. Two gigs in two nights there and I'll be staying in a real ale pub/hotel too. Hurrah!

      So, sorry folks - maybe next time.

          I'll probably be there from a little after 6 onwards.

            I'm about to head out. Counting on someone to spot me with my Gazetta. See you all there.

              I'm tempted to go to this, but I don't think I'm going to be able to make it, unfortunately.

                  The news you have all been waiting for: I'm coming. See you in a few hours if you're all still there.

                      Out of all the people from OTF there, who did you rate least as a human being (yourself excepted)? Go on, tell us. There's no one else around.

                        Yeah, except for the fact that you (and Crusoe) scarpered without saying goodbye!

                        Girlfriends....

                        I had a great time. Cheers to everyone. See you next time...you are all welcome in the colonies!

                            I really wasn't that stable on the bike as I headed up past Stockwell.

                            Everyone is lovely, of course, as usual.

                              That was a really good evening.

                              Sorry to sneak off, Antonio (I have a tendency to do that at these events) - hope you made your painfully early flight trouble-free.

                                Did I mention to everyone that I had to get up really early? I know I told most of you at least 3 times, but I don't want to think I'd missed anyone.
                                Great to meet you AG and as ever, a pleasure seeing the rest of you.
                                6 o'clock, by the way.

                                  I had a lovely time, cheers everyone. How late did people stay in the end?

                                    Ended up with me and Ginger Yellow at 7 in this little known bar where Jim Morrison used to hang out.

                                    Well, actually we were home watching Civilisation by 12.00

                                      Lovely to meet Antonio Banderas and Lyra and good work everyone else. Always nice to have an excuse to sit with the brass monks in the cubby.

                                        No worries, Crusoe. I did make my plane, but I was still a bit tipsy when I got to Luton, I think...I'm a lightweight, unfortunately.

                                          bumping this up because I wanted to remind AG of the London book I recommended so you can catch me out when I give you that tour.

                                          Stephen Inwood's A History Of London
                                          http://www.amazon.co.uk/History-London-Stephen-Inwood/dp/0786707631/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208469395&sr=8-6

                                          I think you were particularly interested in when London really took off. The whole nineteenth century really, but Inwood has also written a very good book on 1870-1914, which is as interesting any period:
                                          http://www.amazon.co.uk/City-Cities-Birth-Modern-London/dp/0330434578/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208469395&sr=8-4

                                          And I've just noticed he's got a new book, An Explorer's Companion:
                                          http://www.amazon.co.uk/Historic-London-Explorers-Stephen-Inwood/dp/0230705987/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1208469395&sr=8-1

                                            Cheers, Tubby! That's excellent. I'll be swotting up for next time...
