Easy peasy :fingerscrossed:
You could be proactive and wear a Union Jack miniskirt.

Likely not a good idea on balance.

I wouldn't panic too much.

They have Sweet Potato fries at the Yard.

I'm not really a frequenter of pubs or bars but I will try and show my face early also as a tribute to the occasion.

I appreciate that this may be a philosophical question of some complexity, but how early is early?

Well my early will probably be on time or possibly even late.... I guess about half seven by the time I leave the kids with my husband and scoot down- although obviously I'm not scooting down;)

Our early can be whatever time you like. Given that Batsman does not like crowds or pubs then earlier is better for us. What time ? 6?

If Batsman doesn't like crowded pubs then he's going to be out of luck. Not to worry though, I seem to remember he's a smoker? We can chat outside if he gets too claustrophobic.

If, on the other hand, you'd like to arrive early enough to have an excellent chance of grabbing the table in the library I mentioned, then early means before 5pm when all the local office staff come in for a Friday night pint (or funny cocktail thingy in a triangular glass).
