I'll probably get there sometime after 5pm. Should I sit in a particular area, or grab a table?

I think my fiancé (zomg) will be there from around six, and he's planning to trundle upstairs and find a table big enough, for those for all those who want to, to eat a pie. If you beat him to it, I'd say upstairs as there aren't many proper-sized spots downstairs even though it is prettier :)
EDIT: whoops no he's getting there later than I thought. yes please to bagsing a table! we should both be there around six.

I will probably be along a little later, as I have an errand to run in Soho. So if the plans change and you move on, be sure to update the thread.

We are upstairs at the Princess Louise, on the table with the 'MEFI' sign (thanks Elysum!).

Yes, it was a good evening. I would have liked to stay longer as I didn't manage to talk to everyone, but I succumbed to good sense and catching the train!
