I am glad you used your vote anyway, people gave their lives to give us the vote :D

No, he is just clever.

He knows when to use things that he doesn't care about to his advantage...

Hi Soup Dragon. This is the no-running, take-your-time-and-relax version of the Bottle Challenge, isn't it? Count me in. Will you make yourselves conspicuous or shall I have to wear my University of Bath t-shirt again?

Hi John, that is correct. We certainly wont be sprinting around like a bunch of idiots, given the nature of the day. Only bits that we might do a dash is runs like Queensway-Bayswater and Euston Sq-Warren St, but other than those it will be a more leisurely challenge. :)

Good. Are we all going around as one group then? If not, then is there a specified post-challenge meet-up point so that we can all swap stories?

We are planning to do it as seperate teams, and havent agreed on a meeting point for the end yet, although most of the decent routes that I have planned appear to end around Bank. Given that we are finishing at around 23:00 a nearby McDonalds would probably be the best meeting point.

That sounds like a pleasant enough place to meet up, although way past my bed time. Do send me a private message when you've decided, and when you've confirmed the 8:45pm Sloane Square start time too. (Or just put it up for everyone to see.)

By the way, my routes finish at Bank too! What a coincidence.

Sounds good, 8.45 at Sloane Square is pretty much set in concrete but if you want to PM or e-mail your mobile I can keep in touch if anything changes....
I have 2 routes, and guess where one of them ends :D

Yes, 8:45pm is fine for me. I'll see you then. Does it strike you that this topic is diverging, in a rather amusing way, from the thread's original subject?

Yes that often happens I have noticed, can go off in a tangent :)
