CGK visit = LON SIN Do

[CGK]

Wish I had known earlier as I would have moved my days off to make it to LHR as I have the next 5 of the 6 days off

Have fun.

Well, it was a last minute decision. Wanted to explore Frankfurt, but London sounds much more appealing.

[Rejuvenated]

I'm always in LON at the wrong time for a DO (i.e. there when there is no DO and not there when there is).

Will this be the first SQTalk meet?

I don't think so - I can think of at least a very very pleasant few days on Canada's Pacific Coast not too long ago!

You know this means we'll have to have a MAN SIN Do to celebrate the completion of the extension, right?

Actually, I know of at least two SQTalkers who will be in MAN at the end of next month when I assume the extension will have been completed. We'll be celebrating with Dom and Krug!

[CGK]

I was hoping y'all hadn't forgotten

Not pre-drinkies too?

The two of us out together in London... the place may never be the same again

Please.. please... please.. pre-drinks and after-drinks ... (I know you have a confirmed dinner date ). Martinis at MO are excellent IMHO. And hope I will not get tipsy after the first round...

Eh? The SIN Do (actually located in SIN) where you met MovieMan, Savage25, et al didn't count? Surely you can remember the overrated restaurant at the Shangri-La (sorry about that choice ). At the very least the pre-dinner cocktails at the MO were quite good.

I meant, another SIN Do.
That restaurant was not bad actually, just a wee bit pricey.
I wasn't that into cocktails then but I've been getting into cocktails lately after discovering this awesome cocktail bar in my neighbourhood. The goal is to try every single item on the menu at least once by the time the year is out (which means by the end of this month as I'm going away soon).

You should see CGKs reaction when I turned at at his Vancouver apartment in a TraitorAir T-Shirt....

I would've thought his apartment building's TraitorAir color scheme would have immunized him somewhat. In any case, IIRC, he has a TraitorAir teddy bear!

Do's for SIN/Bali Doers consist of 3 SQ regulars or admirers. We check for the latter with an oath of loyalty (or when CGK is around, by flashing ink blots resembling TraitorAir's logo and looking at the reaction).

Someday, somehow - I'd make it to a SIN DO.

Good luck with the preparations. I hope you're enjoying some good sunny weather up north. (The trees in Russell Square are blazing with sunlight.)

Can't do it unfortunately...

We would have loved to come, we really would, but we just can't do it. We are having an extension built on the house and they are starting next weekend, so you can imagine the stuff we've got to do to get ready for a month of mayhem in the house...

Having just been away for 10 days, coupled with another trip next Wednesday to Friday night means I will have little time to prepare anyway.

Have fun all, as I am sure you will...

I'm getting a bit confused about what makes a Do. I knew about the cheer up jjpb3 session (there was a post about it) but wasn't sure whether that counted as a Do! And I didn't realise I would be going to one next December!

Of course, pre-drinkies too. But I thought you would still be making your social rounds by the time we sat down and sipped our first martinis?

[CGK]

Aw shucks! Of all the weekends, it had to be this one - ...

Well, last time I was in London you were having fun with mileage run somewhere, Krakow perhaps...
