Holborn works for me. I'll probably be there about 18:45 / 19:00.

How will I know who you all are? If I can't see you right away I'll just wait a couple of hours and see who's slurring 'Abra-Kadabra' loudly ;)

Allow me apologise in advance to being way behind you in terms of knowledge and skill!

We will be testing you.

If you can't do a eight perfect out-faros and a spread pass, you have the buy the first round.

We'll have cards out. My mobile number is 0 then three sevens, then 128, then seven thousand (I'd rather not type it out in case someone googles it).

I'll fail, I can promise you that. I've only been at this a day or so!

You could have got two rounds out of me you with the above first followed by, "and if you don't know what they are you have to buy the second."

I'll come with my wallet primed.

I very may well not, the ones I bought haven't arrived yet so I expect I'll just be there to learn by osmosis! (and ask the occasional stupid question)

I put my son to bed at 7 so could set out after that!

I could do with meeting a few of you guys! :D

Is the weatherspoons far from Holborn station?

DO EET!

Looking at Google Maps, it seems but a two minute walk from Holborn tube.

One minute walk. Turn left out the station. Prob hidden behind orange/green scaffolding/wood due to work being done above.

What's the name of the pub we're heading to? I don't know of any Wetherspoons along High Holborn? Unless I misread and we're going to the Sam Smiths just down the way from the station?

Thanks,
See you all later,
- Josh
