Pub meet-ups : Before and after the event
On the night before in Amersham, we're meeting up in The Boot and Slipper.
We appreciate that for the under-18's amongst us this might be an issue, but we're hoping that they're going to be friendly!
Thus, we're meeting in The George on the corner of Mortimer Street and Great Portland Street, and is a one minute walk from Oxford Circus tube station. Note - this is not the same pub that has been used for Zone1 challenges in the past, but is quite close! Meet up therefore is from 6pm onwards on Saturday 27th August, we've got the upstairs function room reserved off which will also exclusively serve food for us from 8pm onwards. In the great traditional sense of "If your name's not down, you're not coming in" (and because I'm aware that I'm advertising this to all & sundry on t'interweb), if you're not a participant in the challenge and you want to come down then please send me an email so that I know that you're coming, otherwise we'll say "Who the hell are you?" won't we?. Bring your own tube map and coloured pens to dissect which route you took on the day. We will also be giving out prizes too, as New Holland Publishers and Bloomsbury have very kindly donated us copies of "One stop short of Barking" by Mecca Ibrahim, and "Parallel Lines" by Ian Marchant to people that has the most stressful day, have the most amusing anecdote to tell, or had the longest wait/change of the day, etc.. etc..

It
wouldn't be a tube 'gig' without a pub meet up before and after, would
it? Of course not, which is why we've chosen two fine establishments
for underground-egos to evolve and swap tales of the tube.
The
post-event meet up was going to take place the day after, but
we've now shifted it to the weekend as it was easier to book/reserve
an area on a Saturday night than it was on a weekday evening.
