I'm applying for some internships, which would be based in London. With luck, I may get somewhere... who knows. It'd be good, anyway. Brum would make a "nice" day out. ;)

Are you renting a hall or something for the day, for everyone to meet at, have drinks, talk with each other that sort of thing?..rather than ambling around Brum all day.

Umm, i think the café would be more suitable, shouldnt think the landlord would appreciate 12 year old chako in his pub.

But he's bringing his uncle!

I would think we should rent a conference room or something. Then we can pub crawl later. :p

You can go on a pub crawl if you want, but you'll be going home without assistance from those of us who can't drink or chose to remain sober.

Coffee crawls are more fun anyway.

I'll not be joining any evening revelries. I'll be wanting to get home to bed in a different city altogether. The meetup is, for me, a day trip.

I want it to be in Birmingham. I want it to be near me, but I suppose it pobaly wont. Just to let you know London sticks and the transportation system stinks. Meanwhile, Birmingham has an excellent train service and doesn't jam often.

Sorry, but I am telling the truth though. No matter where you go in London there will be some problems. I am not saying that Birmingham is brilliant, I am saying that it MIGHT be better to host at Birmingham. Most people will come from other countries and flying to Birmingham International might be easier as there is a rail station leading to nearly any magor place in Birmingham.

Who needs to drive in London when there is a fantastic transport system in London?

I do, however, disagree with that.

Birmingham's transport system is a lot more refined. And involves less changes.
