    Great event as ever. My only gripe was the loud music in the room in the pub afterwards. As it was our private room and we were there to talk, not dance, I assumed we would be able to get it turned down, but the bar staff said it wasn't possible.

      Hmm, ok... thx for feedback re music. Will bring it up with them. There was a selection of bottled beer – some imported and some local.

      We are always looking for great places that will accommodate us descending on them at short notice and don't require us to commit to a minimum spend. There was negative feedback about the last place (Glassblower) and slow service so if you guys know a place nearby to Twitter that fits the bill and makes everyone happy, do let us know!

    June 23

    • Joanna G.

      Sorry TT. Make sure you RSVP "No" so your slot is freed up for someone else!

  • Charlie H.

    Meetup sent me a message about registering details at another site, but I couldn't grab the link - which is it?

    2 · June 15

  • Philip N.

    Organisers, is there a separate form we need to fill in to complete register for this one? Ta

    (As with Charlie below, I think I saw a link when I RSVPed, but I didn't click it. The link Eddy provides throws me a 404 error.)

    June 22

  • Liza H.

    Just had to change my RSVP, unfortunately -- hope someone else can go in my place!
