Yup...would be absolutely fantastic to see you again Bill....the original class of 2010 needs to be there to peel the stickers of my watch

Zed Homme · 15 February 2011, 11:54 AM

Class of 2010?

I need an explanation (if deemed worthy)...

Regardless, I'm really getting more excited by the day...

I believe it's the reference to the London GTG last year with Dalip,Dan,Chris and Bill........

I bet you're getting excited Chis....Ever been to London before?

Heathrow is a nightmare of an airport...

London is an awesome city

I always love arriving back in summer of course....

By the way what are people's plans on the 3rd? Those that are staying overnight it may be nice to grab some lunch somewhere? I may see if Alison wants to meet us all....maybe a picnic in a park so the little one can run around? Just a thought.....

Zed Homme · 15 February 2011, 01:45 PM

I'll have lunch with you on the third. Like I said earlier, im there from the 30th till the 4th with absolutely no plans beyond our gtg on the 2nd...

Great Chris...we get in around the same time from here - will most likely be heading straight up to my Dad's (about 50 miles North of central London) to begin with. Let's see what the others say but I'll suggest to Alison that she maybe meet us all on the 3rd....definitely show you round a bit on the 3rd in any case

Zed Homme · 15 February 2011, 02:10 PM

That would be most appreciated! Not too early though, I suspect a hangover that am....

The GMT Master · 15 February 2011, 09:38 PM

I think a trip to the Burlington Arcade may be in order!

Too far anyway.

For those from abroad this is a really useful tool to plan your way around London. Instead of the normal tube map it's a 'real' one.
Nearest tube station to the Dickens Inn is Tower Hill

I'm looking forward to this GTG! Last time I visited St Katherines Dock was during the early 80's - I expect it may have changed somewhat!

spuds · 16 February 2011, 08:34 AM

This is looking better 'n better by the day!

I'll certainly be around for some Sunday brunch/window shopping but not sure if Kerry (Mrs. Spuds)'ll be up for the Sunday or not.

I'll confirm that closer to the time Chaps....

dalip · 16 February 2011, 09:06 AM

Wow---This is hard to get a grip on...

Absolutely brilliant turn out already..and it just keeps growing

There is nothing about this forum that I enjoy more than all the members that I have actually met and had such fantastic times with

I have already made such valuable and close friendships through being a member of TRF...and now I know through this GTG am going to meet the awesome people I already met in London last year as well as meeting even more. Just great stuff! Overwhelming to be honest.

Just through the banter on here there are many members that I really want to meet...

EDIT: YUP - OK: Gush over....just felt like it

Can't wait to catch up with you all.....
