Hi Trudi,
Yeh I think meeting up sounds like a great idea :) would be good to talk to some other JETS before we go! :D PM me and we can arrange a good time.

Does anyone want to suggest a date then for a London meet-up? In the interest of speeding things up - how about first week of June? If it's successful then we can organise another one just before the July orientation

@ Chihiro and Trudi

Thanks for the info :)
I have exams until the 13th June and I am leaving to Italy on the 21st June, so any time between these to dates would be great for me :D

Are either of you studying at Lancaster Uni??

Sounds like a fine idea. I'm away from the third to the eigth of june (off to a cottage in wales to celebrate a birthday/end of exams) so any time before/after then would be good if it suits londoners.

Wow, I went to Nonsuch as well! I never expected anyone from the same school would be on JET. I wonder if we were ever at school together?

11th June sounds good to me. I can pretty much do any weekday other than Tuesdays.

Yeah that sounds good to me, I am sure we can find a half decent pub in Covent Garden, if the weather is nice a beer garden. If anyone wants to volunteer a venue I will be there. We will have to figure out a way for us all to recognise each other!

Porter House is pretty big that way, anther one off the top of my head is Punch and Judy.
Open to other suggestions though :)

Awh, totally wish I could come. I'm a northerner so I don't think it's on the cards for me >_<
