Hi there
I thought that I would post the Streetmap reference for the venue which is on the corner of Chapel Street and Old Marylebone Road
http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.sr...=newsearch.srf
Please note that for tube users, Edgeware Road has two stations separated by a few hundred metres. This can be rather confusing. The station very near to the venue is the one served by the Circle, District and Hammersmith and City lines. Use the main exit at the end of the platform. The Bakerloo Line stop at Edgeware Road is at a location a few hundred metres away, and users unfamiliar with the area should consult an A-Z or the map within the station.
The venue is not too large. It is only about 20 metres long, and is not usually otherwise too busy at weekends, so there ought to be little problem finding eachother. There is a distinct area within the pub with lots of dining tables, and that is nearer where my family will hang out.
For recognition purposes, I'm a 6 foot 3 inch white 35 year old guy with short dark-but-greying hair, and my wife is a very 'bijou' 5 foot Chinese lady (ravishing, of course), with a loud, naughty 3 year old girl nearby (ravishing, of course). The combination normally conspires to make us instantly recognisable....and audible.

Gina
Sorry we didn't get right round the table - and Alex - sorry for seemingly ignoring you for a while! I was so engrossed in conversation - I was oblivious to your presence for a time! It was completely unintentional.
Thanks to all those we spoke to for a great time.
And Kate & Derek.........Brisbane! Brisbane! Brisbane! ....Only joking.....but make sure you let us know the outcome.
Hope to speak with you all again some time.
Netta (& John - busy decorating again)
