If i drove a car i would pick you up, but unfortunately i don't even have a license, sorry. The tube is very good from Heathrow though, it is very regular and pretty cheap, much quicker than a car!

Perhaps you'll see quite soon,
That I can't rap to save a spoon.
But I guess that you're on.
Battles can be more gentle.
Haiku is deadly.
(I only mentioned rapping because a friend visited me from the States last June and insisted on rapping Vachel Lindsay's 'The Congo' in speaker's corner. He's not a racist, but the incongruity was obvious and I had to pretend I didn't know him for fear of being knifed.)

As I'd probably manage to get lost in a 200-people town, let alone London 😉
Would you really do that if I don't find someone with a car?

Do you know where you are staying yet? Because you probably want to go dump your bags there instead of carrying them all around town.
Edit: but only if you start moving in our game 😀

yeah I sure would like to leave my bags at the hotel, especially as I'll be there kinda early. I don't know where I'm staying yet... either at the same place as fiesta or Shavi (the main point of that being me not wanting to have to find my way back alone at night), but nothing definate yet.
thank you fred 😀

Hello!
I play with James and Freddie at Ealing Chess Club so I'll be up for coming along to meet everyone on the 26th. My accountancy exams finish the day before so I'll be looking forward to a good weekend.
I'll have to read through the thread to catch up on what's been going on.
Matt
I am doing them too. Which ones are you sitting?
I am doing final level resits of Risk and Control Strat, and Financial Strategy.

I'm got the day off work to study today but suddenly online chess becomes particularly appealing!
Good luck with the studying, hopefully we will have something to celebrate at the meet up!
