LEMON FOOL LONDON SOCIAL 3 - AUTUMN VOID

(Unashameldy plagiarised blah blah)

There will be an informal gathering of Lemon Fools (and friends) near Regent St/Oxford Circus on the 27th October. All welcome ! It’s a social evening rather than being ‘investment focused’, although we do occasionally discuss investing….

*******
When: Friday 27th October 2017. 'After work' to closing time (11pm)
Where: The Clachan, 34 Kingly Street, London W1B 5QH
https://www.nicholsonspubs.co.uk/restau ... reetlondon

*******
Directions:
Oxford Circus tube is the closest. On exiting the tube, head SOUTH down Regent St towards Piccadilly Circus. Take the second left after about 600ft (a short amble) into Gt Marlborough St. Almost immediately on your right, before the mock Tudor façade of Liberty London, is an archway which is Kingly Street (more alley than street). The Clachan is on the left a short distance down .
If you get lost ask for directions to Liberty.
How to find the Fools.

Food:
If you need food get something on the way, or order in the Clachan (if you don't mind paying £6 for four chips). They have a pretty reasonable menu and food in Nicholson’s pubs is normally good. You might have trouble finding a table though.


EMERGENCY PLAN B----
If the Clachan is closed due to unforeseen circumstances (fire, flood, locusts) I suggest a retreat to The Blue Posts (18 Kingly St) which is a short way beyond the Clachan on the left. No idea what it’s like, but it’s a pub. I will try to post ON THIS BOARD if we have to change venue [unlikely]
(I have shamefully copied a lot of the above from my last TMF Social post... let me know if there are any errors or inconsistencies)

See you there I hope!

Thanks Mel!
Just need to add to the 'how to find the fools' bit, which is never easy.
If I remember I will wear my Lemonfool name badge. The lemon flag got a few odd looks last time, so I may try a more subtle approach. A giant inflatable lemon perhaps...

Sorry, can't make it this time (unless a long-standing, believe-it-or-not, Christmas-dinner get-together is cancelled). I'll be there in spirit anyway.

Sorry, I've had a mad busy day and it was as much as I could do to copy the post, let alone check it.

:)

I think I know where my badge is. I suspect tis just thee and me.....

Being up in the North West, it's a bit of a hike for a pint, but have fun and maybe another time when location / diary coincide!

In the Motley Fool days we had regional socials as well - the Scottish ones were very popular (KMcK organised)
I went to a few Reading ones, and I think there were a few Bristol/Brum gatherings

Assuming no train problems/health crises I will be there between 6.30 and 7.00 (need to pop to Muji in Carnaby St first...)

'Need to'.....yeah, right!

I think it might just be us two. Although plenty voted in the poll, no-one except you, me and Terry has said they are actually coming.

Was this one of Bink's available dates?

It was my only available date.

There may be others.
