Have either of you considered The Edgware Road Club?
I met some of them last year and the club seemed to me to be worth considering. They are mostly old blokes, and I think that's why there's almost no internet presence. However they seem to have both knowledge and enthusiam, but not to be overburdened with newbies.
I think the Southgate, which someone mentions above, is active, but a couple of other names that might be worth looking at are The Century RC and the Kenton RC.
I do have the impression that the club scene is a bit odd at the moment. There are new ones like, for example, London Dynamo, about which I have no knowledge although I have heard mixed reviews, and there are the old faithfuls like those named above. Some of the old clubs have got more applicants than they can take, some are past redemption with just a handful of old codgers meeting up for an annual reunion lunch, and some may well still be worth joining since they've got knowledge but very few new members because they haven't recruited by current methods. The above mentioned clubs may be in this category, and there are probably others.
If you can't find them, send me a p.m.
