Yup, the first UK annual flare forum-goers who live in London trip is on. At the moment, it's pencilled for this Saturday. Confirmed as going as of...now.. are me and Lee. With probably Monty and Orion (whose real name we're gonna have to know unless he wants to get strange looks from everyone who hears us talking). Lee is in the process tomorrow of phoning Chris Howell and MaGiC. Anyone else interested, please say. It'll probably be Page's Bar, as MaGiC liked it there. Oh, if anyone can't do this Saturday, say, and we might move it to next Saturday. It'll probably be meet-up at 7 o clock. Or as Lee says, 1900 hours. Jeez. You're welcome to turn up in a Star trek uniform. Just expect to get beaten up.

Alas, since my attending is out of the question (due to the facts that a. my tardis is in the shop for it's 30 millennium servicing and b. England is not conveniently located to New Mexico ) would it be too much to ask that someone hoist one to those of us who are unable to attend? After all, it sounds like there's a lot of hoisting planned anyway. One or two more will never be noticed !

Hmmm.... I don't suppose anyone wants to buy me tickets to London?

I can confirm the foxiness quotient of this get-together will be high.
I do not own a Trek uniform, so no bloody fear. I do however take it that some form of clothing is customary. I shall, therefore, accomodate this on Saturday.

We have seen pics of Lee, I think there was one of Liam, and I clearly remember seeing one of Magic, in leather!! Those were back at SFCR. Remember "Pick the Face".

Well, in the interest of not looking like complete tits, we won't actually meet AT Page's bar. We'll meet at the nearest tube station, by the enterance. When someone finds out exactly which tube station that is.
And I'll be wearing some form of clothing too, so just look out for the clothed 20 year-old. I dunno. We could all ring each others mobiles and just head towards the talking noises.

I'll be the one thumping my phone a la Al from Quantum Leap and wondering why I had to get an Ericsson instead of a Nokia, and furthemore asking when the latter are going to release that cool auto-open one they had in The Matrix. . .
No response yet from Chris or MaGiC. Gimme another day and we'll decide for certain whether this Saturday or next, OK?
Even the communicator-lookalike flip-up ones fall in my estimation when they blurt out a gratingly metallic "William Tell Overture".
As for meeting up, the nearest Tube station is Westminster, (rather busy to spot two other people standing there. Perhaps a quieter place. You know that little lawn opposite the Houses of parliament where idiots from ITN like to stand in all weather and look serious into camera? That's usually uncrowded... Thoughts?

*Would go only isn't invited* Oh, and it's about 500 miles out of my way.
Let us know how it went, boys.
And just how many of you were threatened by marauding vigilantes intent on cleansing the earth of all things trek related.
