Well, having received various feedback about the proposed Event, I am
now in a position to release The Final Details (TM)
Time: 7pm onwards.
Place: The Ancient Druids. [1]
Clothes: Yes.
Plan: Meet in pub -- curry as and when, probably later rather than
sooner, so bring something chocolate-coated to keep your
strength up. Apparently the Druids has food as well, so we
should be able to stave off the pangs until curry time.
Password: Can't tell you; it's a secret.
Crashspace exists but only in limited quantities...
Participants will be required to bring at least one of the following:
Chocolate-coated substances [2]
Glove puppets
Silly hats
Psion or equivalent
Anyone who does *not* bring at least one of the above will be cabbaged,
as long as someone remembers to bring a cabbage, that is...
Looking forward to seeing you all there!
Please email me to confirm if you will be coming; again, offers of
crash-space, money or undying adoration would be welcome.
The Throng So Far:
LNR (are you bringing any more oxonians?)
rjk
Gid 'n' Suzi
Tim Parsons
Selina Lock
Any others? Gotterdamerell? Bellinghpeople? Lemming? Small creatures
from Alpha Centauri? Please -- all are welcome!

Don't know how much help this is, but your best bet if you don't know
the place is to get to the Grafton Centre and then ask -- it's about 1
minute's walk from there...
[2] Out of the goodness of my heart, I shall be offering a pint-shaped
prize for the best Chocolate-coated goodies. Inanimate goodies, I
hasten to add, lest some strange-minded person decides to coat
*themselves*..... So far, I think the afpdirectory of CC comestibles
includes raisins, nuts, grapes, coffee beans and garlic. This list
obviously needs extending -- anyone up to coating a cabbage? <g,d,&r>
