Okay, cool. I think on a Friday night in London it might be a case of finding a place that's not absolutely rammed.
There's a great real ale pub between the west end and Covent Garden called The Harp, if you're a beer drinker? There's lots of restaurants and wine bars towards Covent Garden too if you fancy something else? Or the National Gallery and National Portrait Gallery both have nice bars, plus, you know, art, and stay open until nine on Fridays. But if you've already done the tourist thing during the day then you may already have seen them.
Pub sounds perfect! Though I suppose it wouldn't kill me to get some culture.
Pubs are full of culture! Try eating off the loo floor.
Anybody have a UK address I can use to apply for BBC tickets? I'll be in London at the time of the recording, but they won't accept a US mailing address (despite using email)
You can use mine, but I already have a BBC ticket thing registered to it - I'm not sure if that matters or not, but you could use my office address instead? I can send it to your profile addy?
Also, pub it is then, brenda!
Thanks, Jars. I used a FoaF's on FB.
Hey Jars! If you are still up for Friday, just tell me where and when and I'll find it. My cell number is in my profile also so I should be reachable by text.
I just texted you brenda, I hope - I'm never quite sure about American phone numbers. If you don't get it -
Would the steps of St. Martin-in-the-Fields, just off Trafalgar Sq, be okay for you? Say 6.30 or 7?
ita, I spent a few hours over this past weekend chatting with an old school friend of yours, Colin Ferguson!
I have to say it is so simple when there seems to be only one of you (ita) in the world. I didn't have to mention your surname or family, nationality, current geographical location, industry, or even any additional descriptors at all, other than 'ita'.
Wait--where is he now? Last time I spoke to him he was getting on a plane for New Zealand...
I would like to apologise to the other itas who thought they'd snag a user name, etc, first. I think we all assume we own the name outright, and I do try to be first to the finish line where I can.
