      It's an overnight thing though, so I plan on stopping at a local hotel there.

      Also, nowhere is too far away for the quest of knowledge

      What do you mean by 'inaccessable'? How is it inaccessable?

    Yeah...I'll be there...but as an exhibitor...at least for some of the time. I have a considerable interest in one of them and I've been roped into pressing the flesh.

    I'll also be getting up to no good on the CIM stand. Not sure exactly what though. I've been asked by a few mates to do something, but I haven't been briefed properly yet.

    I'll probably be in the bar most of the time, as usual.



    I'm pretty surprised to see this mentioned on the WF!

        - James.
        I'll be going from Birmingham New Street. I probably won't stay down in London as it's only just over an hour's journey to Euston for me and I have a season ticket due to regular travel to London anyway.

        Have you been to Internet World before? I went last year and wish I hadn't. Very small and nothing new really.

        I'd say there's a lot more value in meetups.

          No, unfortunately it'll be my first time, so i'm not sure what to expect other than what's on their website (which looks remarkably similar to the website of the first event I mentioned).

          Still definately going to the 24-25th February one though

          Looking for people to travel with from Birmingham New Street on the (very early) morning of the 24th if anyone's interested?

    Really confused about transport there and back now. A part of me is actually considering driving there to save costs and train hassle.

    Does anyone have any recommendations for getting there?

    I've looked into coaches but the estimated times are stupidly long

    Thanks,
    - James.

    Who are you? An anonymous username doesn't aid identification with regard to specific events.

    Since you asked, the deal with the London Lunch is that you get a good 3-course meal, plus a glass of wine and a coffee in a top-class London hotel for £30. But in reality, you are really paying for hours of highly beneficial networking that has been organized on your behalf.

    Do you think you should have got in free then? If so, why didn't you ask me at the time? That would hardlt have been fair on the other people who had paid, don't you think?

    As far the restaurant is concerned, they charge according to how many bums there are on seats. If you were there, I will have been charged for you.

    For people who don't turn up on the day, having paid their fee, the situation is clear - their money goes to charity.

    I run the London Lunch pretty much at cost - taking only a very small amount to cover my costs. Any money left over for any reason goes to charity.

    Are you coming to the next one?

    In one word - YES..... This is a West End restaurant - who reserves space for the whole afternoon and most of the evening....

    I really don't understand your problem - we get an absolute bargain.

    3 courses in a West End venue.
    Pre and post networking in the bar...
    To sit with and spend time with some of the best marketers in the world...
    Organized and run by someone else.

    It costs £30 to reserve your space - the rest is free :-)

    When I was living in France, I used to pay my return air ticket and a couple of nights in a hotel as well as the cost of the lunch. It was always worth it because I learnt so much and made my money back quickly.

    At the lunches I've had long conversations with Kymi, Harvey Segal, Bob Puddy, and Glenn Leader. I've met the guy who wrote Website Article Wizard and the owner of XSite Pro. Even Martin Avis seems to know a thing or two ;-) And did I mention Phil Wiley or Andy Henry?

    But even if you don't meet up with any star names at all, the quality of most of the participants is so high that you'll enjoy it - and shame on you if you can't make back your £30 ;-)
