An excellent policy MaW
Is The Wellington definately established as the pub venue btw? That means we can have fun with the lift doors on the underground again

I think it is. Nobody's said anything different anyway. Hopefully more details will be forthcoming at some time in the near future.

To sum up then....
The suggested Ice Rink won't be open when we want it to be. And it appears that that is the only one accessable, but isn't there one near Liverpool Street Station?
If an Ice Rink is out, Bowling is the next choice.
A venue for bowling? The Elephant and Castle lanes were nice, if the area a little dodgy and the subway lift like something out of Starship Titanic.
For the evening a pub.
People seem happy to take over the upstairs of The Wellington on The Strand. Although no-one has really objected to having another venue.
A pub style quiz is definatley in order. Themed on "h2g2, the WebSite and Community"
Have I missed anything?

If we do go to that Bowling place - better warn people that the lane's at the very top of a shopping center (as far as I could see) and that there are no signs to it.

Abi's back?
And the ice-skating is off?
WA-HAY!
A double-celebration...
Now, a pub quiz is more my thing, but I can stretch to ten-pin bowling.
