Ladies Drinks - Wednesday 28th November, The Pembury E8 1JH

Brownies are done! Looks like shit, smells amazing, tastes - for you to judge.
Looking forward to meeting you all.

Oooh! I didn't even think about food! Nice one CW and yes, I shall try to do my best to prioritise garms over grub!

I might be a bit later than I thought as I've actually got a meeting at the Royal London this afternoon so will be going to the Westway via Whitechapel rather than Victoria - should hopefully be back to the pub by about 6.30pm though.

Looking forward to it! Haven't seen people for agesss! And bonus new people. Win. AND Clefty is coming!!

Ooo brownies!

I am planning to come along tonight too. It will be my first ever ladies drinks! Should be up there between 6.30 and 7. Really looking forward to it!

I thought i already posted this but my phone must've eaten it...
I have numerous empty Lush pots that can be exchanged for their "Fresh face masks". If anyone would like one, i will be going on my way to drinks so let me know which (apol for lack of link, am on phone) or you can take empty pots off me later to make your own exchange. 3 available.

Collection of jersey sample sizes confirmed!

Looking forward to this evening! I will be a walkenger since I didn't want to bring an extra lock to work today.

(Poots I realised when I got to work, I forgot the jacket for you at home, derp derp moment for me).

I will be walkenger as I'm not sure about the route from mine to the pub... also don't want to ride home also not knowing the way a bit tipsy! Haha.

Hoefla could I take you up on your kind offer of a face mask? I will buy you a drink in return! I don't mind which one, I like surprises.

Good work on collecting the jerseys poots!

At the moment am trying to memorise Googlemap route, but may chicken out and take PT.

Yay to Clefty making an appearance :-).

Probs going to be at the pub for just after 6 will anyone be there/ where will people sit.. Don't want to wander the pub looking silly..

There about 6-ish. Probably beer garden?
Look for the chick with the giant oven tray of brownies, in hybrid work/cycle get-up.

Sorry ladies. I'm out. Something's come up. Have a lovely time.

I'm sat in beer garden with my gf on the comfy chairs near the left of the pub door.

I'm here! And inside (is too cold to sit outside!) got a couple of big sofas near ladies toilet.

see you soon!

Sorry I didn't get up there to see everyone.

Poots, you're amazing. Are you happy to write the list of sizes and post on the jersey thread or send them over to me?

Me and Nicola had an ace time tonight. Mands, those brownies were amazing! Look forward to the next drinks and to organising the jaunt to Holland! It was lovely to meet you all.

^ what Caz said! :) brownies - I can do better! Grr ^

Great night! Felt like a proper old school ladies night but with lots of lovely new lady face's - was AWESOME to see Clefty too and we totally won at dinner I reckon.

Glad people like the Holland idea - will start a separate thread. Have also had a idea for ladies drinks and trying to get them more regular - how about we try and make them monthly but rotate north, south, east, west, central etc?

So nice to meet you all. Looking forward to next drinks, monthly idea sounds great poots! Also, awesome brownies mands - needed to exercise some serious self restraint there!

A lovely evening all. Mands, if you produce those brownies on a fairly regular basis, I will nominate you for lifelong membership :-).

Poots, the Holland trip sounds good. Ferry bookings for next year are now possible (I'm off to Normandy in June and some of the group have already booked their ferry return travel).

Monthly drinks are a good look on condition that Clefty makes an appearance at least two of them :-).

PS: Despite the helpful directions towards Euston, I did get lost but obviously found my way home. Really need to ride around the non-familiar bits of London.

I'm really glad I came out last night, albeit for a short while; what a great group! I regret not being able to chat to all of you but I look forward to the next round.

nice to see everyone last night

Lovely to see so many new faces and some lovely regulars!
Always good to talk about cement mixing, cats and DNA amongst other things.
Brownies=amazeballs, the boyfriend was very happy with the leftovers!
The sticker is now on my Brompton.
I even managed to get back to Holborn without getting lost!

Sorry I haven't been around for ages, life has been getting in the way a bit.
Lets have more ladies drinks!

Me and Nicola had an ace time tonight.

Nicola was/is ace! Bring her again! And on a bike ; )

nice to see everyone last night

Was ace to see you at a ladies drink, lady! I think you stayed for more than one, didn't you?

I even managed to get back to Holborn without getting lost!

I totally read that as "getting back to Holland without getting lost" and thought "that's a bit keen/previous!"

But yes! MOAR DRINKS! Watch this space for October news!
