We had a coffee morning last week but I forgot to take any photos. So, sorry about that. Helpfully John sat in exactly the same place as last week so I can just re-use this one. Bunch of new people arrived which was excellent, though I'm ashamed to admit I can't remember everyone's name. Aggh. I must get better at that. Also this week I finally said hello Jonathan who runs the Breakfast Club, which was nice. And I met up with Dan from City of Sound and Jack and Matt of Schulze and Webb fame. All excellent people.
One of the things I've loved about blogging is the way you can bump against other online people who you imagine you'd like and you can just hang around in the same sort of space for a while until somehow you end up actually meeting. It's a bit like making friends at work, or in the playground, you're just hanging around together a lot and gradually discover that you're friends. There's no big awkward social moments.
There will be another coffee morning, Friday, 11am, The Breakfast Club. Come one come all
I'm finally going to be in London on a Friday. Hurrah!

Andrew - I'm really sorry, I've just realised I have to be in Manchester on Friday. But I'm sure people'll press on without me - Paul? John? Henry?

Russell,
How about one coffee morning for the early birds? Like 6.30-8.30 when iIt still bright in the mornings and just before we enter the winter sleep….
Hope you’re well,
Asi.

Anyone around?

I can't meet in the day, as I have a 2.38pm meeting at Yakult HQ (way out West).
However, myself and Henry are going to meet for a beer at about 6pm in Soho (somewhere near the Breakfast Club); we'll let you know where.
Any of the usuals are welcome to join us, or anyone else for that matter (Andrew?).
Blogging coffee becomes blogging beer - for one week only!

It's not to be, I've got to get back in sunny Leeds. I'd love to make another Friday to meet these people, who I sort of feelI know, soon though. In the meantime, if anyone (Carol?) is around Tuesday afternoon, Soho -ish, I am.
Sorry to use your blog as a meeting forum Russell but nobody reads mine;-)
