Organizer’s description

Let’s go to the V&A and look at two different displays: the Burberry trenchcoat display, and the Freddie Mercury trail across the museum that’s called: Splendid Things. I feel both sound very intriguing! These are free to see but I need to charge an attendance fee of £3 to go towards the Meetup organiser’s fee that they charge me. I didn’t do so well this half year, hoping to catch up over the next six months if you think of what we talked about (do ask me).

A drink afterwards would be very nice indeed, but I fear that the Zetland Arms we’ve been to may be crowded and noisy. We can try it, and I’ll also look into other places nearby. Fingers crossed. Catching up afterwards is one of the nicest parts of meeting up.
