Re UTL drinks we currently have a date set (15 July) but no agreed
venue, warning to landlord / reserved table(s), time, method of
identifying who might be coming, how to spot fellow ulters etc etc.

Perhaps some decisions and communication might be in order?!!!?

Wasn't the Head Of Steam (or the Doric Arch - whatever it's called this
week?) at Euston, the location of choice?

I might offer Mr Wetherspoon's offering at the Metropolitan Bar at Baker
Street as a backup.

I thought that also.

I wonder if a closer backup might be better.

There's a place called the Exmouth Arms tucked away behind Euston. It's a
decent, normal pub, and virtually never busy, even on friday evenings.

Funnily enough I've been meaning to post something about this for a few
days but have been up to my ears in stuff and didn't get around to it!

As others have said, I'd assumed it to be the Head of Steam/Doric Arch
and was wondering about time. I'm actually flexible as I'll be doing
some research that day and can arrive at any time, early or late. Or
both!

I'd be quite happy with the Metropolitan Bar at Baker Street as a
back-up, good railway heritage and a pleasant place. I don't know the
Exmouth Arms but that wouldn't be a problem either.

What time does everyone fancy? I'd thought in terms of 7.00pm but
earlier if that's better for Colin?

The group's logo on a sheet of A4 on the table will sort the recognition
problem.

Oh, that's very nice. Who came up with that, and how long ago?

Me, a long time ago, when I was the core of the group, before I became its
lunatic fringe.

May 2000. It was done as a badge which I wore to the Tramlink opening day,
so that other UTLers could accost me. I saw one other person wearing it: he
doesn't post here any more, but is still a friend.
