Back by popular demand!!!! Our fourth London get together is set for Saturday 3rd April 2004. We are again going to eat at the Cafe Rouge, upstairs in Victoria Place.

It is possible that they will give us some sort of discount, but I have yet to speak to them about this.

Meet at 12 30 - 12 45 in order to eat at 1 pm.

When we met last time we also saw that some of the items in Molly O'Grady's pub were cheaper and could be low carb, but the general feeling was that it would not be as comfortable sitting there. This pub also gives us a second venue to adjourn to afterwards as well. Last time it was 6 pm before we finally broke up, but everyone is free to leave after they have paid for their lunch around 3 pm.

As before I aim going to book a table in advance and so towards the end of March I am going to ask all those attending to reconfirm they are attending. Last time 21 attended of which 15 were low carbing.

Details of our last get together on 7 February can be found here.

How to get to Cafe Rouge, Victoria Place.

Enter Victoria Main Line Railway station and head towards platform 14. Go up the escalators which lead to Victoria Place. At the top you will see Dorothy Perkins on the right. Continue walking, keeping to the right till you get to Boots. As you go, if you look up to the floor above you will see Cafe Rouge (red of course) to your right. Then look left and see the escalators up to the food court.

Once up the escalators turn left and then left again to get to Cafe Rouge. It is likely that we will be sitting at the tables at the back of the cafe with the soft red bench seats - the non-smoking area. Afterwards we will probably decamp to the adjacent pub.

We will meet at the Cafe and I'll bring my Atkins book as well. I'll book the table in the name of LittleAnne. Remember to bring cameras and any photos you have to show your progress.

Looking forward to seeing you there.

I'll be there! Can't wait

I'm taking DH with me too.......

Well our get together at Cafe Rouge is a week away, Saturday 3rd April.

I rang the restaurant today to speak to the manager and book us in. Unfortunately it does not appear that they do group discounts, so I was not able to arrange anything. Sorry folks!

I have booked a table for 16 for 12 30 pm under the name of Little Anne. Directions on how to get there are at the start of this thread.

I am expecting the following:
Little Anne - Anne
D***
SylviaUK - Sylvia
Tortie - Vanessa
Twiglet & DS
Meggen & DH
Alina & DH
Nitwit - Lindy
Tholian8 - Emily
Gez

That makes a total of 13. If you intend coming along can you either post here or send me a PM to let me know.

Information on the menus available can be found at this link.

Looking forward to seeing old friends and making new ones.

I can't make it to this one guys. Sorry!

Please keep me posted for the next one. I will make babysitting arrangements ahead of time.

Have fun and take pictures to post for all to see.

Hugs,

I'll try and be there

Anne,

I see you've brought the table booking forward to 12.30. I'll probably not arrive until 12.45 at the earliest - I have something else on in the morning. But I'm definitely going to be there
