Title: Lunch in London - Oct 25th CANCELLED
Post by: Nick on October 07, 2020, 11:48:38 am

You are invited to lunch in London on Sunday 25th October 2020.

I will arrange a table for 6 at a pub in Central London for 1pm so that some of us can meet up, get pissed, talk nonsense and enjoy a fine meal.
This is instead of the Elstree show. Probably in the London Bridge or Westminster area.

Please reply if this interests you and you feel sure of attending.

Wish I could. Maybe I’ll check with the spouse/banker if we can book a cheap flight.

Given the change to London's Covid Band any meet would need to be outside if my understanding of the rules is correct ? And that's assuming we don't get moved to Tier 3 which our "amazing mayor" is so obviously pushing for, why I have no idea, but he's obviously got an agenda  :-\

Might be awkward to organise Nick ?

Well if Nick becomes your carer, and anyone else going moves into your place, Chris, thus becoming a household + support bubble, you should be OK.  At a single place of work.  In the canteen.

As Bojo might say, do it but don’t do it. 

As for the other matter, I did tell you it’ll all end in tiers (fnar fnaaar).

Seriously, it’s all about cash, which is what’s been happening in the north-west.  Tier two brings impositions that may or may not be bearable.  Tier three adds to them but includes financial compensation, thus reducing the impact on the local economy.

Frankly I can’t understand why all of the major conurbations haven’t started as tier threes, given population densities and routine movement of people for work (let alone family and friends - and that before socialising).
