It's Charlie's birthday so I won't be able to attend this one.

It is my leaving do for my old company tomorrow and while I would love to come to this, it is pretty much expected that you attend your own leaving do :)
Next time for sure...

Doh,
Sorry guys - got a calendar clash. Me and Deb agreed to finish putting the greenhouse up this week :( We could make it next week though !
As Dave says - we'll definitely be there for the next one.

I may yet be able to make this - albeit it getting there at around 9-9:30. I'll pop in straight from Piccadilly if I arrive in time and see if you're still there.

should be there around 7pm... trains permitting (they're always late!).

Not sure if I'll be able to make this one. I'm in London/Cambridge that day and I'm not quite sure what time I'll be headed back just yet.
Best to assume I won't be there.
