Hi all,

Apologies for abusing the front-page news, but I've just had confirmation that I'll be staying in London on Friday the 15th of January (i.e. this Friday coming).

Although I've already made plans to meet a few guildies (hi Snowy! hi Astrala!), I thought I would open things up to the wider community.

So, if you are interested in joining us for a few beers - please drop me a reply in this thread. Location is yet to be decided, but in the past we've met in the Porterhouse (just off Covent Garden). It's a huge pub with brilliant beers and is also very close to several nice places for food.

I know we've got quite a few members in the London area, so please consider if you will be able to come along!

Thanks. :)

If only I can travel to the UK w/o visa like schengen states, I would've gone just for a weekend... it would've been fun to meet over food and beers... plus I've never been to London. I would've gone in a heartbeat if really there is no border restriction, ticket flights are relatively cheap from Geneva. Plus these are kind of good/free times for me to go...

Thanks for heads up though Baz. Hope more could make it! Go Go GO!:clap:

If you are a Swiss national, you don't need a visa to enter the UK:

http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf18eeaswissnationals

UK government visa information in that link. Specifically:

What rights do I have as a Swiss national?
You and your family members have the same rights as EEA nationals and their family members. The information in this guidance also applies to Swiss nationals and their family members.

And then:

Do I need a visa to enter the UK?
No. As an EEA national you do not need a visa to enter the UK.

But I'm sure the visa issue is not the most significant obstacle! ;)

Just come along for a couple of pints - absolutely wont be a binge session ;) (I've got a flight on Saturday, so I wont be overdoing it myself).

I will be free from work by around 3pm, but have not yet agreed meeting times. I would like to see Ventai and Randarin come along, too! Any other London geezers I have missed?

Well that complicates things! What nation are you from? You sound like you have a slight Asian accent on Vent..?

I am from Indonesia. You know it's fun to know Rocktaker can speak Indonesian and so does Hussah in the guild :clap: both are half indonesians

both are half indonesians

From the waist up or down?
And just half an Indonesian? ew. Sounds weird. I prefer my people full. Halves or fractions tend to be messy. Yep, I like my people in one piece. I know, crazy talk, but that's just me. :clap:

You should not joke about such things. They may have lost the other half in some horrible accident or worse.

Very true Prelate, maybe I touched a raw nerve. Literally.

ANyway, tonight Baz, I will be the one wearing the "I DON'T ROLL WITHOUT MY d20" shirt.

And nothing else except a token codpiece.

From a cod.
