CE: 14th July SWF Early Bird Meet up@ The Fox Excel & China Palace

Had a quick look and found this bar not to far away from Excel:

I don't know the area and have no idea if this place is any good to meet but looks like there's loads of space and a decent outside area, let's just hope it's decent weather!
 
Hi all,

Just to help out a little . Good choice , nice pub right in the heart of the excel complex . Would be a good central place to meet for everyone for the Thursday night meet up and other nights. I worked in the area for a few years.

Hope that helps I will be the guy sitting in the corner with my t shirt on.

Cheers darren
 
Fox is ideal, nice pub, good prices, lots of space and just outside the front doors of Excel.. :-)

I'll be there Thursday setting up during the day and am staying in the premier inn next door to excel. There'll be a bunch of us there aiming for the bar !! :-)
 
There appears to be 2 Fox bars, the Connaught which is a short walk away from Excel and the one actually at Excel.

Any preferences?
 
Fox at excel, you can fall out of excel into it and there's outdoor tables, big bars, loads of space :-)
 
I have a sense of great epicness approaching. This is going to be fun. Sounds like I'll need to book Monday and Tuesday off just to recover.
 
I'm worried about the calculation:

Serious Curry and ale Thursday + queues Friday = possible shatting myself.

Sod it, I'll just stuff a spare set of y fronts in my backpack!!

Whooooooooo!!!!
 
Yeah! SWF early bird meet up is officially Thursday 14th! T-shirts are a must! :D

:lol: if the London meet-ups are anything to go by then this may not be an option
 
Looks like there is no argument on where we are going to meet up and have a drink but what about food? I found a few lists of restaurants near the excel, not many indian restaurants though by the looks of it:

This one is quite close by the looks of it: http://www.restaurantmarina.co.uk/

I'm easy as to where we end up but suggestions/input definitely welcome :D
 
If we are meeting at the Fox@excel, the curry shop is right next door:-
