London blogger dinner?

Both Don and I are in town for a couple days... anyone feel like getting together for a dinner?  We were thinking Monday at some great curry place... Don will provide the location when we see what the response is like...

01/23/2004 9:16 AM

Of course Paul, you can come...

Don told me the name of the resteraunt but I've forgotten it again... It'll be some curry house - I don't know how many to make the reservation for?... can we get 10 people? 20? 30?

Hard to estimate turn out really, I only moved here to the UK in late November. Maybe book conservatively and seeings as its a Monday night in winter we might be able to expand if interest increases?

Mark Allanson | http://www.markallanson.net | markAT NOSPAMmarkallanson dot net

01/23/2004 12:06 PM

Great idea Chris! I'm flying in from Madrid tomorrow, great timing :) BTW, yesterday was the official Avalon (et al) presentation for developers down here. You wouldn't believe the faces when the wow! came out... way to go.

01/24/2004 3:13 AM

I knew you'd do this - I'll be on the train home at that time so I'll be lucky to make the post event drinks. However I get into London on Sunday evening - anyone for a pre-blogger-dinner drinks then?

Graham Harwood | http://weblogs.asp.net/gharwood/ | graham dot harwoodAT NSPAMboltbluedotcom

01/24/2004 8:45 AM

I don't blog (actually, never heard of the term before Thursday evening!), but I'm interested. Am I eligible?

Julian Reed | http://www24.allpussy.net/ | jreedAT NOSPAMdeloitte dot com

01/24/2004 8:47 AM

Julian - sure, the more the merrier
Graham - alas I have plans on Sunday, however post event drinks sound good... I'm looking to try and see "Dog and Duck" - i've heard it's a good pub?

chris anderson | http://blog.simplegeek.com | chris_l_andersonAT NOSPAMhotmail dot com

01/24/2004 9:52 AM

I won't be able to stay to eat, but I hope to be able to whizz in around 8.30 and stand you the beer promised in an earlier (December) comment.

Chris - did you say previously that you and Don were coming over with BillG? Does he like Curry ;-)

James Clarke | http://www.clarkezone.net | jamesAT NOSPAMroot6 dot com

01/24/2004 2:28 PM

If you're also free on Tuesday night, you might consider dropping by the Extreme Tuesday Club (the London Extreme Programming group) at the Old Bank of England pub on Fleet St. We've been going about 4 years now. Follow the links from http://www.xpdeveloper.com.

If there's still room, I'd love to come along.

Richard Birkby | mailto:rbirkbyAT NOSPAMhotmail dot com | rbirkbyAT NOSPAMhotmail dot com

01/25/2004 2:43 AM

Yes, this is open to anyone... i'll check with the hotel, but it seems that Masala Zone doesn't take reservations... what I'll probably do is show up early and ask for a collection of tables... we'll have to play it a bit by ear...

chris anderson | http://blog.simplegeek.com | chris_l_andersonAT NOSPAMhotmail dot com

01/25/2004 6:37 AM

Hi, I'd like to come along too!

01/25/2004 11:42 AM

My colleague & I would love to come but as we have a long train journey North again (we are down for the talk), would prefer to know if it's definite?

Robert Hogg | www.blackmarble.co.uk | lindaAT NOSPAMblackmarble dot co dot uk

01/25/2004 2:42 PM

Yes, this is definite.

Chris, Megan and I will get there between 8:00PM and 8:30PM.

I'm guessing we'll be there for at least 90 minutes, longer if people actually show up (Chris and Megan have grown tired of my stories, so please come and entertain them).

I'd love to come and meet you but can't make it tonight.

But can I suggest (for another time) for you and Don another curry place - Woodlands off Marylebone High St - it's more southern indian food than the usual north indian so quite different (delicate) and very good (and they take bookings ;^))

http://www.woodlandsrestaurant.co.uk/restaurants.html

You can walk there from Bond Street in about 10 minutes (behind Selfridges) so if you're staying in Park Lane it's quite close.

Cheers

Drop me an email
