Morning coffee in the centre of Cambridge Sep 13, 2013

As I will be in Cambridge attending a talk and dinner at my college on the Friday, I thought I would suggest this powwow (sorry, I know it's a bit last minute) in case there is anyone free on Saturday morning to meet up for a coffee.

Have you already found a venue to meet up for a coffee?

Copper Kettle Sep 19, 2013

As I studied at Cambridge many moons ago, I don't really know that many places to go. So how about the Copper Kettle on King's Parade, unless anyone has a better venue in mind. As long as it is central, I don't really mind.

10:30? Sep 19, 2013

Hi Russell, glad you can make it. I originally suggested 10:30, but slightly earlier or later would be fine for me too if it's better for everyone else.

Yes, confirmed Sep 20, 2013

And the more the merrier. I'll be leaving for Cambridge very soon, so let's agree on 10:30 tomorrow morning at the Copper Kettle on King's Parade.

I am so sorry :( Sep 22, 2013

Hi Nikki!

I am so sorry to have missed this powwow but I woke up yesterday with fever and I have a very bad cold
I was reaaly looking forward to meeting some people around here as I don't know anybody
I hope you'll soon be back in Cambridge and that I will be better this time.

No problem Sep 22, 2013

I'm sorry you were feeling too unwell to attend yesterday. I have come down with a heavy head cold myself today and am feeling dreadful. Hope we both feel better soon!

I will be back in Cambridge towards the end of March next year, so will probably organise another powwow for then.

Thanks Russell and Angie for joining me in the Copper Kettle yesterday. It was great to meet you!
