Summer drinks - this Saturday! See first page for details.

Now, as per the other SCR summer thread, the cunning plan is to have some drinks somewhere in Richmond, thereby giving people access to what is arguably the only pleasant place to ride in London.
It seems that the preferred month for this is July, so I've put up the viable dates. You'll notice that they are all weekends, I'd envisaged an afternoon thing.
You'll also notice some are missing - namely the 19th, 25th and 26th of July. These are the ones I can't do. Seeing as I'm planning, seems only fair that I can come along!
EDIT:
This was the best way I could think of to do this. Am open to ideas...
Also, if you can do any of these dates, rather like me, then pop that in a message...
ANOTHER EDIT:
The drinks are on the 18th of July, meeting midday at the coffee shop in Richmond Park, for a few laps. We'll set off at 1215, so if you miss us at the coffee shop look for a group 'not racing' and tag on for the second lap, or see if you can catch us up!
I reckon 1330/1400 at the Roebuck will be about right, and I'll aim to be there by 1330, so look for a girl in lycra with very long hair if you haven't been to one of these before. To guarantee you're not waiting by yourself shoot for 1400. Mine's a lager.
The Coffee Shop is in the north-eastern corner of Richmond Park, adjacent to Roehampton Gate car-park.

There is loads of space to drink outdoors and take in the view (of the weirdos in lycra or the lovely landscape), as well as loads of railing space to lock bikes to. I'd bring a lock, but then I'm paranoid... you may not be.

yes yes I see your anger, Let it out.
And when you have done that, walk a mile in my shoes
Can't do she only said she doesn't work for a whole month, not a whole year!
I'm pretty open on this so haven't voted..........no plans as far as I'm aware as July is actually one of the few months we don't have a birthday (at least in my immediate family.......)
Was trying to persuade the wife to come along with the kids (in an effort to get the day pass) but she didn't seem to enthusiastic, any other attendees planning on bringing partner and/or kids?

But then I'll be a mile away from you, with your shoes. Barefoot walk homr for Linsen.
Anyway, I don't walk, I cycle.
