@Bunny!!!!!
Are you in communicado with the OTel???
Getting the parking deal and wotnot... would be good!
I also propose Biggin Hill Museum on Saturday, stopping at the DeHavilland Museum on the way back?

I went last week mate and i wasn't impressed with the biggin Hill museum at all, expensive for the size of the museum and hardly anything in there..
i would make the extra journey and go the battle of britain museum at hawkinge and stop off at capel le ferne on the way back

What a shame... ah well!
Maybe a better idea would be to take the train into London from Stansted and visit the Imperial War Museum and then also some of our overseas colleagues can get to see a bit of London too? Beers in old London town haunts!
If there was interest, I would be happy to organise a walking Pub Crawl of some of Londons more famous Pubs, ending up at a chosen curry house... wont find better than Mile End Road for that!
Then we get the late train back to Stansted.
Does this interest anyone?

Are we looking to change curry house? It would be a shame as honestly the one we go to is still one of the best curry's I've ever had.
Also, isn't drinking in London expensive as fuck!? Not sure how I feel spending £5 for a pint. I'm from the North East you know! I can get a pint around here for £2!

Its good... but some in the Mile End road are truly awesome and one step removed from India itself!
But whatever folks feel...

Have we settled on what's happening then? I know it's early in the year but the sooner we book the more time we have to prepare etc, etc.

I'm up for it. It'll be good to see some planes but more interested in a curry and getting shitfaced.
