24th April it is. Current plan: Eat at Mongolian Wok at 7pm, then stagger to a pub in Jericho until closing time. I will assume everyone listed as definitely coming wants a place booked there for them (I'll make the booking a week or so in advance). 24th April it is. The plan is as follows.

Some people will meet at 4:30pm (earlier if you want) in the [[http://www.ox.compsoc.net/oxfordguide/?Far_From_The_Madding_Crowd|Far From the Madding Crowd]], which is on [[http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=451198&y=206495&z=0&sv=451198,206495&st=4&tl=~&bi=~&lu=N&ar=y|Friars Entry just by Borders]]. If that's full, we'll be in the Goose instead, which is just nearby. I've booked a table for 16 at the Mongolian Wok for 7pm; add/move yourself to the definites list below if you're not already there and wish to guarantee yourself one of the spare spaces. After that we will stagger to a pub in Jericho until closing time; probably the Harcourt Arms or the Bookbinders.

I'm assuming ice-skating isn't happening, but it's really up to the people who are interested.

Possible extra plan: Go to one of pub, laserquest, ice-skating and bowling before 7pm. Opinions?

The possible extra plan seems to be coalescing in favour of ice-skating from 2-4pm followed by pub. However, note that
the Oxford Ice Rink web site warns "Be advised that the 2.00pm-4.00pm session on Saturday is extremly busy. There may be occasions when certain size skates will not be available for hire."
Please add yourselves below as appropriate.

Laserquest, pub and ice skating easiest transport wise. Wol doesn't like Laserquest, Ganesh doesn't like ice skating. AEndr bored of pub. Oxford (well, OxIRC) people get a chance to go bowling on the 16th anyway. Kami would prefer pub if he comes (which is unlikely).

Details

24th April it is. The plan is as follows.

Some people will meet at 4:30pm (earlier if you want) in the Far From the Madding Crowd, which is on Friars Entry just by Borders. If that's full, we'll be in the Goose instead, which is just nearby. I've booked a table for 16 at the Mongolian Wok for 7pm; add/move yourself to the definites list below if you're not already there and wish to guarantee yourself one of the spare spaces. After that we will stagger to a pub in Jericho until closing time; probably the Harcourt Arms or the Bookbinders.

I'm assuming ice-skating isn't happening, but it's really up to the people who are interested.

Who is invited: Earthlings, who may bring significant others if they wish, and Nick Burch.

  • Amanda Kerr-Munslow
  • GaneshSittampalam

  • JonathanMcDowell: Aiming to be there for 7pm, am coming via train from Brighton.

  • Angharad Green: I can offer crash space in Oxford - one spare room and plenty of living room space

  • ArthurBullard, who would also be interested in skating, not done that for ages.
