kath Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) Thanks Deb, that's great. I am away as from tomorrow so probably won't be able to get on here much. So not sure if I will get chance to pre order as I won't be back home until next Saturday night. But no worries... I don't suppose Abby or I will fade away Can't wait!

dcdeb Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 OK, I'm back with some more information about the pub meet-up. Please disregard our previous notice about pre-ordering. Smollensky's has asked that you all just order upon arrival. The following information is just so you can be prepared when you get there and will know what you'd like to get. Here is the wine list: http://my.propcom.co.uk/data/media/pdf/Strand-1.pdf As I said before, they are offering 2-for-1 drinks on their Happy Hour specialties.

Sabine64 Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 OK, I'm back with some more information about the pub meet-up. If you think you might want to order a bottle of wine or champagne in advance of the get-together, here is the wine list: http://my.propcom.co.uk/data/media/pdf/Strand-1.pdf As I said before, they are offering 2-for-1 drinks on their Happy Hour specialties.

She does know that we're Mika Fan Club, but the booking is under my name, Deb Koma, and the booking reference number is DMN-10434621144. You can also pre-order by email at strandevents@smollenskys.co.uk I suppose you could also fax your order in, as they have a fax number listed, too: +44 (0) 20 7836 3270. Any questions? Let me know! I think we have this under control! Can't wait! but we also can order Softdrinks or just a beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted October 10, 2015 Author Share Posted October 10, 2015 but we also can order Softdrinks or just a beer? Of course you can order soft drinks, Sabine, but I don't think you need to pre-order those -- just order when you get there. And no one HAS to pre-order anything -- it just might make things move a little quicker since there will be so many of us trying to get served at the same time. If you pre-order, they can get it all ready in advance, so that you don't have to wait as long to get your food/drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiibet Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) I would love to meet people but I'm there with my family... Is there any age limit to come there that hour?

Elwendin Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 (edited) OK, I'm back with some more information about the pub meet-up. I AM FLABBERGASTED. I've never seen such a perfect organization in my whole life!!!! Deb, you are a super hero!!!!!! I thought I was supposed to fight my way to the counter in order to get some food or whatever, like Mika himself was the bartender, order something random and then pray all the gods hoping it wasn't Donald Trump level expensive. You planned and posted it all, instead!!!!! I should have hired YOU as a wedding planner. Omg, we can even pre-order. AWESOME!!!!

Christine Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 (edited) I would love to meet people but I'm there with my family... Is there any age limit to come there that hour? Can I bring them all for a short while to say hi? They have a children's menu in the restaurant so I'm sure it's fine. The website says you can get a child's meal for free with a paid adult meal before 7 pm on weekends. Maybe you can email them to verify. We don't know our plans yet. Can we still join later if we decide to come? Yes I think Deb just wanted a general idea of how many so that there would be a big enough space.

mamiam Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I wish everyone going to London a safe trip - and a supercool stay! It all looks so well organized now So enjoy each others co. at the bar/pub - and of course MIKA at the concert! I know both these places, as me and hubby stayed in the hotel between this bar and the theatre, in June It's amazing that so many MFCers will be present, and of course I wish I could - but I'll be with you all "in spirit" - and look forward to reports, pics and hopefully vids. ENJOY!!! Love,love me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 OK, first of all, hold the phone! I mean, literally, hold it. Smollensky's has now asked me to tell you all to not worry about pre-ordering. Just order upon arrival. So... disregard what I said about pre-ordering, but just look at the menus so that you know what to expect and order when you get there. Thanks. I would love to meet people but I'm there with my family... Is there any age limit to come there that hour? Can I bring them all for a short while to say hi? Sure, I think it's fine as long as your boys don't try to order a beer. I AM FLABBERGASTED. I've never seen such a perfect organization in my whole life!!!! Deb, you are a super hero!!!!!! I thought I was supposed to fight my way to the counter in order to get some food or whatever, like Mika himself was the bartender, order something random and then pray all the gods hoping it wasn't Donald Trump level expensive. You planned and posted it all, instead!!!!! I should have hired YOU as a wedding planner. Omg, we can even pre-order. AWESOME!!!! OK, calm down. All I did was send an email and make a phone and then send another email. We don't know our plans yet. Can we still join later if we decide to come? Sure, as Christine said, I just wanted a rough estimate of how many to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
