10MS H&F Evenings (PLUS 3rd March London Herf)

[Simon-JG-hr]

I was wondering if anyone knows when (and perhaps what) the next H&F evening at 10MS is going to be?

I've recently realised that I haven't been up for a herf since before Christmas!

I've got two trips planned for March (3rd/4th and 14th) for similarly interesting reasons, though suspect some would find all of them rather dull. Was rather hoping the evening would correspond with one of these. If not, then I shall have to try and arrange a mini-herf with some of you guys anyway...

Hi Simon, I assume you've seen the events listed on the H&F website? I think the next dates for 10MS are 28th Feb and 28th March. Not been to one of those events before so I'd certainly be interested to do so.

Those other dates in March, will have to see where I'm due to be working but could well be up for a mini-Herf.

I'm going to be in London on the 3rd of March. Was planning of JJ Fox and/or Wardour Street for the whole afternoon!

Doh! Excellent suggestion Will... got so fixated on trying to find stuff for 10MS that I completely forgot to check H&F's website. Looks like I won't be able to make either of those dates (doubt I could fund a third trip up from Plymouth...) I'd definitely recommend trying to get along to one of them though, I've been to two or three now and they've all been excellent - always a good crowd of people in, friendly service, interesting talks and usually reasonable value too... Although that last one's a little bit subjective...

As for the other dates, always good to have BOTL company when enjoying a cigar. Also always good to meet forum members I've yet to have the pleasure of herfing with, so that would be good.

Ooh, that could be ideal. I have two talks I need to attend, so when I'm done on the 3rd (by about 1400) I will have nothing until lunch-time on the 4th... I'd intended on wandering across from Whitehall and setting up camp in JJ Fox anyway, so this could be ideal.

[Drewmidorn]

I'll head down there first then! Perfect.

Simon, are you still expecting to be in London later this week. I'm in London Thurs am and been seeing if I can manage not to have to go back to the office...

[Simon-JG-hr]

Will, I am indeed - just finished booking my trains. Drewmidorn and I will be at JJ Fox in the afternoon (I expect to be there from around 1415). Would be great to meet you if you can manage to avoid the office for the afternoon.

[snooky]

Are any of you around tomorrow afternoon JJ's ?

[Simon-JG-hr]

Unfortunately I won't be snooky, won't be in London myself until around noon on Thursday.

PS. I wonder if anyone will be around on the evening of the 3rd also? Was thinking of a trip to 10MS or Dukes once JJF close their doors.

I expect that once I'm out I'll be around until early evening, will def be up for moving on, even if it's just one for the road... Assume it's a wise move to bring my own smokes, not sure what might take my fancy at JJF's?

[Lascaux]

Is there some event/tasting happening tomorrow or just a good ol' fashioned regoolar herf?

Am kicking about town, got a meeting @ 4ish but may run in to JJS in the early afternoon for a quicky then be back around 10MS @ 6ish?

[Drewmidorn]

I was planning on JJs for the afternoon (till maybe 4/5) and then a bite in soho and wardour street for the early evening... depending on my mood! lol

[Simon-JG-hr]

just a good ol' fashioned regoolar herf

Just one of them... as all the best ones are. Let's see if we can fill-up the sampling room at JJF... Really looking forward to tomorrow now - the three hour train journey is even seeming worth it!

[spirit_of_will]

I'm expecting to be able to join you at JJF's from around half 2 ish... expect I'll be around until early evening. Looking fwd to meeting a few folk...

Ok I'll pop down JJs around 2:30!
