Any news on the pub yet? At least a couple of people not taking part in the R15 will meet us at the post challenge venue...

As the first post of the thread says, you must start by departing the start station (in this case Highbury & Islington) by London Underground. (On twist rounds where LO or DLR are used then you can alternatively depart by LO or DLR).

Just to throw my worthless tuppence into the hat regarding this, I don't see what the big deal is regarding how you leave the start station. It's a Random 15 challenge which has 15 stations to visit, the starting station being one of them. Surely you should be free to leave the start station as you please, as long as you visit it by LU at some point during the challenge? The clocks all start upon the opening of the envelopes, so it's not as if there is an advantage to be gained in that respect either.
I won't be at either the challenge nor the darts on Saturday.

For a big City London has surprisingly few pubs with dartboards, I have spend extensive time researching with SD but if you have any suggestions then let us know...

Can you phone them maybe as I need to let Ryan & Jamie know before I leave Sat am?
And would also be good to get this sorted before we meet up on Sat :)

I'd rather it be a Sam Smiths if possible, otherwise I shan't be able to afford to come along. I thought The Rising Sun was perfect last time out.

I suggest we stick to what we know this time, so either the Rising Sun or the Horse and Groom.

Maybe at the next BDO event we can try somewhere different.

Agreed you are looking at just over £2.00 a pint as opposed to around £3.50 - £3.80 in non Smiths pubs...

Sam is her own free person so is glad that Matthew did not remove me from the list, as I have stated I am no longer attending, i did not see the need to cross my name off the list

Executive BERC decision on the pub, we will try again (third time lucky) The Cardinal, Victoria This is purely from a selfish point of view, as it's near Victoria I can get some pub time before my departure to Worthing :-)
One day I shall return!
