    Completely agree. I'd say Boff should grab whatever date he feels is most appropriate as having a group discussion will just add more time. Whatever the date some won't be able to make it.
    Oh, but I can't do the 14th. It's my daughter's birthday.

    In too. Flexible on dates at the moment. Bear in mind that 21st will be Black Friday (last Friday befor X-Mas, usually very drunken and a heavy day for the emergency services) so people may have other drinks too.

    Yes it's probably my fave pub in Greenwich.... And actually, come to think of it there are railings nearby. I went there a couple of weeks ago and it had been sold. It had been independently owned but is now a young's pub. They had a special closing offer - steak, chips etc and a beer for 7 quid....

    I'll drop them an email and see what availability they have left.

    Who hasn't got stuff to do the last Friday before Christmas? :roll:

    Oh well, maybe next year!
  • The spreadsheets are back!
    Have a look at this and feel free to add/modify as required. Sheet one is availability, sheet two is the preferred choice of pub/location.

    I get what BigMat is saying, I was just being selfish.
    Spreadsheet is read only to me so I can't add my mark. I'd be happy to go midweek, shame to waste a Saturday with a hangover.

    So 4 of us have filled in the spreadsheet and already we can't all do the same date. Nobody else? Work's being a bit rubbish and I'm building a thirst.
