Edited for clarity.

Has anyone does this and lasted the day at work without sleep afterwards?

Not me. Won't try it either. Body too old for that kind of abuse these days :-).

MM - the cafe TBD. Proper greasy spoon or the 'healthy' variety? I could murder a fry-up that morning, but that can be a Plan B @ home option.

we are sourcing a greasy sppon - any suggestions?

is Maria's open that early? (in middle of Borough Mkt, I think she used to be when the wholesale was busier) it's not big though...

also, Terry's (Gt Suffolk St) opens at 7 - but for a crowd they might open earlier? breakfasts there ain't cheap, but they are good.

Thank you hoefla! Will ring both the above.

3 years ago, when I still had my shop in Peckham High Street, we used to frequent Cafe Como, 117 Peckham High St. (turn left out of Peckham Hill St - few doors down).

This sounds ace, don't know how I'd forgotten it happens. I'll be at Avebury.

have fun you lot!

Right, I'm in! Reckon I'm going to plough through and go to work but finish at lunchtime...

Hip Flask...Sounds a Brill idea.... Will have to have a hunt around and find mine too

Flask for me. Hot chocolate and some pastry snacks for sunrise.

Just got Tuesday booked off work, can't wait for this!

I'd bring a hip flask but it doesn't hold enough, so it's a small bottle of regular blended scotch for me*

• purely for medicinal purposes of course
  

No boozing for me if I'm going to go straight into work : (

Still looks like a nice little ride/turnout. Yay! For some 90210 haps!

Just keep drinking through work!*

*please don't do this if you're operating heavy machinery, all other professions should be ok (I think)

Have managed to persuade the better half that she might like to do this one, so I'm hoping I'll be there. Just need to check I can have the day off of work, otherwise I'm going to have a long day at work that day!

Question: I assume the plan is to have a little LFGSS peloton?

No worries if people have got other plans (with non-forum types gasp) but I'm going to be on my tod, so can I tag along with someone? KT Bee? cafewanda?

Poots, you are more than welcome to tag with me, as I would be on my tod aussi.

Yay, I've got a mate! lol

If there are three of us that's not tagging along, that's practically a mini peloton...

We can confirm that we have booked breakfast at Terry's (Gt Suffolk St) from roughly 6am.

I hope to see some of you there!
