View Full Version : London bridge curry

As many of you may know I finally get married in a few weeks. A few of the kenties have suggested a UKMOC "stag", although in reality what they meant was that my marriage was a great excuse for a get together, a curry and a few beers.
So, on Weds 22nd a few of us will be going for a curry after work in the London Bridge area. Meeting any time from 6ish (depending what time people can get here I guess) for a beer then some food later on. Unlikely to be a late one and all are welcome (as i said, its an excuse to go for a curry rather than a stag do).
Stick you names down below if you fancy it as we may have to book a table if many people are interested.
Steeevvvooo
J.P - happy to help you celebrate.

The place next to hung drawn and quartered is good (eastcheap I think) and a bike bay almost right out front. It's more tower bridge than London bridge though.

Has anyone properly assessed the implications of letting the Kenties out again so soon after the Weekender?... and in the big city too?

Yes, a full site examination was carried out to assess the risk to the public and our own UKMOC. Feedback was taken and opinions gathered.
Then we said, F*ck it. It's Stevo's wedding soon !

I cannot make the Wednesday Steve. I will take this time to wish you a great evening and a fantastic wedding day with your beautiful new bride. I will catch up another time and we promise to raise a bottle or three on your wedding day at the TT. Same from Caroline too XX
Again , would love to come but a bit far on a school night
Have a great evening (leave your phones and cameras at the door)
And all the best for your future x

Stevooo would love to be there at least for a beer but have another do to go to that night. Let me know the beer venue and I try my best to get there for at least a beer
ladybird
15-05-2013, 01:36 PM
Both are about a 10-15 minute walk from London Bridge or Bank

Is the place I mentioned with the motorcycle bay pretty much outside the front door.
A colleague says this one by our office is good as well (also has a nearby motorcycle bay)

Work hasn't scheduled me for anything, so barring emergencies I'm in.
Do we have a venue yet?
gary tompkins
19-05-2013, 12:04 AM
Shuffy already had a venue in mind - curry house over a pub somewhere near London Bridge
Can't remember the name or address but I'm sure someone else does
The Blue Eyed Maid, 173 Borough High Street.

I'm going to try to leave work a bit earlier to catch the train into London Wednesday
What sort of time are we aiming to meet up?
alan c
21-05-2013, 05:55 AM
I will do the same.
steeevvvooo
21-05-2013, 06:50 AM
I can be there from 5.30-6 really. Think JP said about the same sort of time too so I will be there whenever people want to meet. Let me know when your train gets in.
Suggest we meet at all bar one opposite London bridge as its easy to find. Ill try and reserve a table to huddle around.
Should be there by 6:30ish.
gary tompkins
21-05-2013, 08:36 AM
Ok I'll aim for this 'bar one' meet at about 6.30
Can you bung up a google link?
All Bar One at London Bridge Station it at the end of the Bus stops right at the MAIN entrance to the station (Platforms 10-16 ish) and just to the right of the base of the new Shard Building.
I will be aiming for a 6.30 pm arrival. Don't want to get too drunk , too early.
steeevvvooo
21-05-2013, 03:05 PM
Meet at the all bar one opposite London Bridge from 6pm. Pretty much opposite London Bridge Station
http://goo.gl/maps/3RRg6
We can meet there, wait for some stragglers then head over to the Blue eyed maid from 7pm (No-one really wants to spend much time in an all bar one!). Table booked at the Blue Eyed Main for 15 at 8.30pm but the bar downstairs seems a nicer place to be than the all bar one.

Earliest I can make it is 7.45, so save me a poppadom (or 20).

About the same time. 7.30/45
Even though the office is at the other end of the bridge I have to work lateish.
Don't let shuffy eat all the popadoms :)

Ive got to go pick my bike up from RC.
If I get stuck working later than planned I might have to bale on you guys, if not I should be in time for curry.
steeevvvooo
22-05-2013, 10:56 AM
table reserved at all bar one under "Steve" from 6pm so see you guys there. I will take one for the team and start drinking at 6pm to keep the table :booze:
For those coming later if you need my number PM me and I can let you know where we are. We're likely to move on from All bar one once we have a critical mass and go to the Blue Eyed Maid for a (hopefully) better pint
pegboy
22-05-2013, 11:09 AM
I'll be there for 6pm maybe slightly before, the one in the corner drinking alone?? Don't think I'm going to be able to stay for a curry as will need to leave around 8pm.
so see ya there for a pint or three

I will hopefully see you in the Blue Eyed Maid later on, I don't finish work until 8:30 and its a half hour trip to London Bridge, I expect I'll intrude just as everybody is eating but I want to say best wishes to Steve and say hello to everybody.

Did you book a table(s) at the blue eyed maid?
Looks like there will be a lot of us sitting down to eat?
steeevvvooo
22-05-2013, 03:01 PM
table booked for 15 people at 8.30.
Scott, if you text me what you want to eat I can always order it?

Have a great weekend mate.
What a great night, laughs, curry & karaoke, you can't get better. Well, strippers would have been great but that's just me.

It's a hit show in making! What's not to like? Celebrities AND rodents in a dance off spectacular.....
Fantastic night and congrats to Steve and the oh so lucky Shellley. And remember you're supposed to sing the commas in karaoke.

I was only there for a short while but I had a great time, have a good one in Benidorm Steve.
I only wish you all could have seen the sight of Shuffy legging it for the train......and missing it.
Great night. Lovely to see everyone on good form. We should make excuses to do it more often.
Best of luck on the stag and the big day Steve :)
Can't say I didn't warn you about this lot....

Shuffy did attempt to leg it for the last Bexley train... and yes he did miss it
We were full of sympathy and understanding :chuckle:
