Sorry John,
Just seen your reply I had posted up a Topic asking if people were still going.

I will e-mail you to say that I am going to come along on the 12th of Feb.

Well, so far it seems that there are a reasonable number going along, but not enough to warrant the pub reserving an area for us.

We'll meet inside the pub around 1.30ish. Look out for the KC group logo which I'll have on display.

See you on Sunday!

Hhmm i still got rather lost on where this pub was so looked it up on Street Map. I get really lost with just directions and like to have a map so that i can see where i'm going because if i pick the wrong street i can work out how to get back! I will try to put it here but if it doesn't work i'm sure that John will come and fix it! :lol:

Yes, Sweet's map is pretty accurate - and so is the (IMHO better) map on the event page complete with directions too for those who can cope with them!

Hehe thanks for making it smaller it was taking over the page!!! :roll:

I love Street Map as it gets me everywhere and is dam easy to use so i'll be ok now as i can find my way there. Some were saying it is near to Blackfriars tube but i think that Southwark is much closer so will turn up there! :lol:

Is anyone painting a green line for me just in case i can't wear my lenses?!! LMAO!!!!!!!!

Yes, Southwark is closer, but not by that much. There are no major roads to cross from Southwark though so it is probably safer for KCers - even when they are wearing their contacts :lol:

Hehe BOTH!!!!

Went to Moorfields today and half of the line has gone due to road works!! I was like OH HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!

You know that line is very comforting when you can't see and to be honest when i was following it blind before i never really noticed the streets! :wink: :lol: So when i went with John to 'A & E' i honestly didn't know where i was going as the line wasn't there, gee making things more dam difficult for me!

Do you think it will be back before the AGM??!
