Introduction
The 2013 UK Transport Tycoon Forums meet is planned to take place in London on the 28th July (a Sunday this year, rather than the Saturdays of old). We will initially be congregating at a Wetherspoons pub, The Moon Under Water, at Leicester Square for drinks and lunch. Plans for the rest of the day are still to be finalised. See below for further details on the venue, activities, and getting around London.
As with previous years, we will not be able to accept responsibility for under-18s at the meet, so we respectfully ask that you do not attend if you are under 18 unless you are accompanied by a parent or guardian. As our initial venue is a public house, please be aware that entrance or service may be refused to under-18s. If this happens, I'm afraid we can't do anything to help you out.

Travelling
Let us know how and when you're getting to the meet. This way, we will be able to know when people are arriving, and can let people know if they're likely to be travelling together or meeting each other at a station. Please try to keep all entries in time order!

- orudge - Flying from Aberdeen, Tube to Leicester Square - should be arriving at the pub around 11:00 - 11:30

- Chris Most likely will be at parents' house, so the Met from Amersham.

Travel around London
Travelcards are the best way to go around London at £8.90 (Absolutely sodding extortionate! Only yesterday it was £7.50!), and allows unlimited rides on Tubey-thingys, big red double deck boxes and huge long rail-riding thingys around this massive expanse of office blocks. Or basically anywhere on -> [1] <- this map. Added by 47 407 (talk) 20:58, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
Overnight in London
The following people will/may be staying in or near London over the weekend:
- orudge - Staying the night in London (probably at a Travelodge near Heathrow Airport - £21 can't be knocked!)
Activities
Socialising!
The main focus of the meet is to get to know each other, enjoy a few pints, eat burgers, and have a laugh! While you're welcome to bring your laptop to play a game of OpenTTD or similar, you'll probably find that most people won't have gone to the trouble of doing so.
Other activities
Still to be finalised. If you have any suggestions, please post them!
