BBR Port Walk

[Alex Bridgeman]

BBR's annual port walk is scheduled for Thursday 28th November. I managed to get a ticket for it this year! Is anyone else on TPF planning to attend?

[djewesbury]

Is this an invite-only do?

[JWEW]

I'll be going.

It's ticket only, available from http://www.bbr.com/products-20091-the-p ... g-28-11-13

Looks like it's sold out already though.

[djewesbury]

Sold out, yes. Spoke to them just now. On the reserve list!

[PhilW]

I will be there again this year.

[RAYC]

I will hopefully be there - potentially with a couple of work friends as well.

[djewesbury]

Joy. A couple of cancellations mean that I am now attending this.

[djewesbury]

Does anyone want to eat afterwards? Who is going? Should we book anywhere (nearer the time perhaps)?

[DRT]

I naturally assumed that we would be having an offline at The Bunghole afterwards.

Then I will call them on Monday. Perfect!

[Alex Bridgeman]

What will be the theme? Should we invite an industry guest who we suspect might be in the country?

Yes and yes.

It will have been too long since the previous one quite the correct assumption.

[DRT]

Excellent.

We have a quorum, a venue and a theme...

What will be the theme

So, silver foil or disused wine bottles at the ready chaps: "What?" is our theme.

[jdaw1]

"What?" is our theme.

No. Just ‟What”, without the punctuation. So it can be a question or an exclamation.

[djewesbury]

If we leave BBR at 8.30, shall we allow 15 mins for the Piccadilly Line and 10 for walking and round it up to 9pm? Will TBH still be delighted to see us at this time? Should we think of somewhere nearer to Piccadilly?

Can anyone get us into their club..?

What..?

[DRT]

There are special tube trains with orange lights on the front that can get from St James's to High Holborn in 15 minutes.

Phone TBH and ask what "too late" means to them in the context of half a dozen blokes spending £40 each.

And one Northern Irish lady... Yes OK will do. Monday.

[Alex Bridgeman]

IIRC the kitchen closes at 9:45. We may find we get more flexibility if we agree to pre-order so the kitchen has our food out and prepared and just has to cook when we arrive.

Have you issued the invite?

[jdaw1]

if we agree to pre-order

Caesar, large, with extra-high-fat sauce, both with and without the faint hyphen. Please.

Is this a reference to the industry guest? Are we to identify him from this description?

[DRT]

I can't think of anyone who fits that description.

No I haven't. I will do so on Monday.

[Christopher]

I have a spare ticket if anyone wants one, cost is face value believe £70, if do not here anything will let BBR have it back for the queue.
