And so I think I need to get as precise a number of attendees as possible. And so can everyone who is planning to attend, whether just for drinks or to order dinner, please leave a comment or send me an e-mail, especially if you have not done so already?<\/p>\n
Thank you, and apologies for this change of venue so close to the event!<\/p>\n
As a reminder, the event will be Sunday, November 22nd at 5pm.<\/p>\n
