The Plan: This evening's entertainment is a two-parter. OK, for those who'd like to make the most of the meet, and would also like to eat, the first 90 minutes or so will be at the Wetherspoons pub at the Elephant & Castle. I will be at the Wetherspoons Pub from about 17:55. Here I (and any early arrivers) will make our way to the bar, for food and drink. At approximately 19:20 the Wetherspooners will migrate to the Mansion house, where the atmosphere will be quieter (briefly), and the beer a little better. We hope you will join us there if you didn't feel like the early start. The Meet should finish at closing time, or whenever we get chucked out, whichever comes first. There has been mention of a Seasons 1 or 2 BuffyFest for the Sunday, but this depends on a few things... (Like my Video Card deciding to play nice). The Directions: Car/Bike/Lorry/etc Now, those coming by vehicle other than of the public transport kind, I can't really give more advice that "Aim for the Elephant and Castle, and plan to leave the nightmare traffic layout of the double roundabouts heading south along Kennington Road." Kennington station is about quarter of a mile down the road. There is a map at http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap.dll?grid2map?x=3D531750&y=3D178250&zoom= =3D1&isp=3D187&ism=3D500&arrow=3Dy?106,150 marked with the best road in the area that can be used for parking. Public Transport (with Trains to any London Terminus if necessary) Tube: Wetherspoons: Nortern, or bakerloo lines to the Elephant and Castle. Exit via the Bakerloo Line exit, and turn left. Just around the corner you will be able to see the pub. The mansion House: The Northern Line has a lovely Station called Kennington. Just across from the station is the required pub. Bus: The 133 Bus runs right past Kennington Tube Station, and has the following route... Liverpool St Moorgate, Bank, London Bridge, Borough, Elephant and Castle Kennington Camberwell Road Brixton Streatham (and Vice Versa) Other buses may be caught to any of these places, where the 133 is a surefire bet for you to be able to find the pub.

(well, will have by Wednesday Evening. <g>) Any Questions? summermeet1@detritus.co.uk will get a quick response. Any more info needed? see above. Flames/Rants/Spam? >/dev/null Barry R.
