We really should make a couple of decisions about meeting places... at least one for Saturday evening after, say, 8pm and into the night and one for noonish on Sunday.

Colman suggested it would be good to have the Sunday near Jerome's flat and Colman's and Sam's hotel, on account of little Christopher, so that seems to be taken care of pending confirmation by, I suppose, Jerome...

About Saturday night, someone (maybe redstar, since he's suitably stalinist :-) should simply make a decision. Paul, how late can you get back to St. Cloud on Saturday night, and from where? (assuming you want to take public transport rather than a taxi)
