Soho Drinkies Lunchtime Meet 12th July

[peterr96]

So Woolie has put me up to organising this.
Opening gambit for Thursday 12th July at 12:30.

Kettners was one suggestion

If you want anywhere more like a pub, just say. I know some.

Nearest tubes are Leicestershire Square, Piccadilly Circus or Tottenham Court Road building site.
For George, the nearest Boris Bike parking is in Moor Street which is about a minute walk away
Any takers?

I'm not sure when I'll next be down that way - I didn't get the job at Red Bull racing

Still plenty of other F1 teams to try, but only a few of them seem to use Unigraphics and I'm not a huge fan of Catia

Just round the corner from me.

Thanks for organising. Was on my list (was going to suggest Sun & 13 Cantons) but you beat me to it

Didn't get the job - was because you were late / stuck on the M1?
or did you just do your usual and tell them carbon fibre is st?

No it's because my degree is in the wrong engineering principal they reduced the length of the contract too so I wouldn't have taken it anyway.

The carbon fibre there looks nothing like the stuff you see that's been added to cars for visual effect. Hence why I think it looks like Chavvy tat.

Damn that pub for taking me off-line

I only suggested Kettners as a nice place to meet up. Certainly don't want to stay long in there - you can get fed up of champagne

There are a few nice pubs in Soho:

Yes. Think I've been in most of those. Not necessarily on the same day.
I'm happy to skip Kettners and go more pubby..... only I know that Woolie and Woolders like the odd glass of vino and I was the only one supping beer, up until the point I migrated to vino.
IF YOU INTEND COMING and have got an opinion (on the venue) then please feel free to contribute.

[v8woollie]

Beer is fine for me. I just seem to need the toilet halfway home on the train and the train doesn't have toilets. Must be the volume of liquid!

Last time I was in Soho I was soooooo wasted I may as well have been in Sheffield. I will leave the venue to the experts but I love real ale before moving onto wine

Woolie that is piss poor planning. When we were deciding where to live, the presence (or not) of toilets on the train essentially decided the capture area. Being a bloke is tough sometimes.

This is Soho. All those aspects can be accommodated... including Sheffield.

Also I never said it's st. I said it's got it's place and that is in weight saving and structural purposes - i.e carbon tubs / body panels.

I've actually got a little bit of carbon on my fancy new motorbike gloves I just picked up!

[v8woollie]

How about here:

I wonder what we could talk about though

Sadly not yet - my leathers are red and black. I bought my mates old ones off him for £100 and next year when I'm hopefully done with falling off I will get myself some custom made Spidi ones in black and fluorescent yellow. Then I will look like a wasp!

Er.... so .... what exactly is the purpose of CF in your new gloves?

No idea. I'd have rather had metal but they don't do it! I'd guess it's for lightness

[Molly GT]

Can't be there boys but will you have one for me? I have one of those 'big' birthdays that day.

There, when you've all forgotten about that & someone says shall we have just one more one of you has to say yes - we forgot to toast Molly!

That sounds wierd now I read it back

PS. Is there any topic that George can't sideline to his new favourite thing?!
