SqueezeCon? lol.

Ya, we are going to wedge one in here before the big #7.

A bunch of us are going to be there anyway, and we were planning a pub crawl when someone said the magic word "conference" - so lets do it!

This thing will probably sell out fast...

[Shak]

no "official" anything, just go with the flow, and remember "NO" means NO :)

Novotel, yep, thats the 1

shak

[moishe]

I vote Austin for the next one:)

[vitaplease]

Booked Thursday through Saturday.

staying Novotel Hammersmith
(would that be approx. 30 minutes with the Picadilly line by tube from Heathrow?)

[Shak]

yep vita, thats about right.

or being dutch, you could walk/cycle along our lovely motorway M4, be quicker than driving

;)

Shak

[vitaplease]

Thanks Shak,

M4?

I think I prefer saving my energy. Who knows I might find an A4, crawling my way out of High Holborn..at least I remember something similar two years ago..;)

[Shak]

it's an S4 these days, monsieur

[caine]

everyone got their sunglasses ready?

[Hawkgirl]

> everyone got their sunglasses ready?

For which activity ... walking around in the rain or standing around inside a dark pub? :)

[George]

Hey Hawkgirl,
the sun Shines every day in the UK!

(you just have to be in the right place!)
Got my shorts too.

[ncw164x]

Hey come on gives us brits a break, the sun is cracking the flags at this moment in time, might not last until next week though when you guys (and gals) fly in through the 70 miles an hour wind and driving rain, stood under the "Welcome to Heathrow" sign wearing your yellow duck suits to keep dry, oh and your sunglasses of course :)

[ThomasB]

Will wear the same as in Orlando. It's PubCon and nobody cares about the weather. If it's too cold, we drink to feel warm. If it's too hot we drink to cool down. Everything as usual I thought. Sunglasses for the day after when we go to the airport and Joe Surfers sees us?

[Hawkgirl]

Well, I'll bring my sunglasses ... but I expect I'll use them more for standing around and looking cool, rather than shading my eyes from the sun.

[webdiversity]

Did nobody think to talk to the organisers of the swingers convention. A co-hosted event would have been awesome.

[George]

errr... Shak, your field?

[shrirch]

Got everything firmed up.

1) Appointments with some suppliers on Tuesday for lunch.
2) Hit the SES floor on Tuesday afternoon.
3) Open a tab @ the Novotel bar around 4pm.
4) Wait for cabbie to show up and offer to buy me a beer or two to show him how to take his PR a notch or two down. ;)

naughty, naughty!

That would certainly add an un-thoughtoff dimension to the convention, too freaky to think about.

[jcoronella]

Should pack your boa... just in case. ;)

[nuevojefe]

Pick San Diego for 7

[cabbie]

>>>4) Wait for cabbie to show up and offer to buy me a beer
Just waiting for that 20,000 check you sent,to go thru Shrirch.If I am not there don't panic and keep drinking.I will be good for the bill.:)if the check clears

[TheWhippinpost]

er... which Novotel in London pls?

[shrirch]

Hammersmith from what I gather (and where I'm booked).

[TheWhippinpost]

Ah, thought so, thanks shrirch :¬)

[Hawkgirl]

Off to play in Europe a few days before PubConf 6.5!

See you all there next week.

And remember ... be nice to the girl at the door who is checking everyone in at the pub. Her name is Hawkgirl and she'll check everyone in as fast as possible. Rumor has it you can bribe her with chocolate. Not sure if that'll get you in the door any faster, but it can't hurt to try.

[lorax]

>> but it can't hurt to try

Doesn't the depend upon the proximity of a certain well know male WebmasterWorld figure? ;)

[George]

Any Chocolate in particular?

[creative craig]

Is there an official count at the moment?

[italian faga]

hallo everyone,
i do seo for my italian company and i will attend the london event,hoping to learn more about this great world.

hope to find you there and have fun too!

[Lady_Lea]

No room at the Novotel now.

I booked into the Holiday Inn - as I did not read this thread before - is anyone actually staying in the Thistle? or the Holiday Inn?

Look forward to drinking loads and meeting loads of people, who's names I will never remember .....

Lea

[italian faga]

i will be at Hilton Olympia 1st june at 20.00. will i find u there?

[shrirch]

I'm booked at the Holiday Inn Express Hammersmith for the 2nd evening, but I have a feeling I'll be drinking somewhere near or at the Novotel.

There are a couple of forum members from my website in London who want to meet up .. might go out on the town with them on the 2nd.

Moving to the Novotel on the 3-5th.
