Hello Pei Ling and everyone

My very best wishes for a successful and enjoyable Powow!
Unfortunately I will not be able to come. I am in London with lots of work and a looming deadline.
I am planning to come to Oxford on the 3rd 4th week of August in case you want to meet again.

I like this idea. It's also close to the University Parks as well.

Sounds good Pei Ling. The Turf has some quiet rooms at the back, whereas Browns may be quite noisy and if we're at a round table... Will you leave a message at Browns to send any lost souls on to the Turf? Shall we say first person at Turf seeks out a good spot and asks bar staff to point others in the direction of the translators' table? Who knows, summer may even have arrived and we could sit outside!

I'm not quite sure if we can get much talking done in the pubs actually. Besides, I'd rather not mingle with the drinking crowd on a Sat evening. What if we meet at the Turf Tavern (good suggestion, DC) Sat afternoon around 3.30pm?

Am unable to make this Saturday at all, but like the idea of meeting up on a Tuesday a couple of times a month. You organize it - I'll come!

All the pubs are crowded on a Saturday evening. I agree with the Turf tavern - or Angel and Greyhound, although this one is not really nice for sitting outside as far as I know. If people are coming from a distance then it seems sensible to have this in the afternoon.

Thought it might be nice to set this up in Oxford, say first Tuesday of the month, or first and third, then anyone can turn up after work and socialise and share info. Topic for discussion on Saturday!

How about the Turf off Hollywell Street at 7 pm? It has quieter areas, 7 means we'll get seats, but people can go about their business in the afternoon. Pei Ling, your decision, but what do the others think? How many prefer afternoon or evening?

How about the Angel and Greyhound on St Clement's Road? Quite a nice pub and not normally too crowded.

An afterthought. Would it not be better to meet at a pub or cafe and then sit outside in the University Parks or Christchurch Meadows?

I would suggest that we do not meet at Brown's. It will be far too noisy and expensive. Better make a booking at a cafe in Cowley Road. Or even a pub such as the Lamb and Flag. But everywhere is going to be crowded.

In response to your comment Pei Ling, an evening meeting would suit me better. What do the others think of this?

Hello Pai Ling and everyone. I am not sure that I can make it for that day. I could if it had been a week later. Do keep me posted just in case. If I can't wish you all an enjoyable and fruitful meeting.

I see that different times of the day would work for different people. Please let me know if the majority can make it at the suggested time. If not, we can always make some adjustment. Thanks.

Hello,
I'm planning to make this a pretty informal meeting. How does a drink (coffee/ice-cream) at G & D's on St Aldate's (opposite Christchurch) sounds? Any other suggestions welcomed.
