[HPFGU-London] Re: Meeting up (8th Aug)

[GulPlum]

I am *hoping* that I might be able to make this meeting. I have several 
issues to resolve (not least of which is that, being car-less, I have to 
get to London from Birmingham and back by public transport and I need to 
justify - to myself - six hours' travelling time to spend five hours in 
London....) but I am determined to make at least *one* meet this year!

As for things to do, I've just noticed that the BFI's IMAX theatre is 
currently showing PoA and it's on at 4.30 pm on Sunday... Having seen the 
film at the "normal" cinema more times than I'm prepared to admit, I'd like 
to catch it at least once on IMAX and this could well be my chance. There's 
an IMAX theatre here in Birmingham, but PoA has yet to appear in its 
schedule, and I fear that if it ever gets here, the copy will probably be 
unwatchable (as it'll doubtless be the same print currently showing in 
London).

I notice that Neil has announced that he can't stay beyond 7pm, but if 
there are any other takers for the film, he might *just* be able to make it 
(especially if he misses the end credits).

Any thoughts (and words of persuasion for me)? :-)

(BTW I'm about to go out and won't be back until the evening, so don't 
expect a quick reply)
