Agenda: to discuss how many meetings we are going to aim for in the next year, what types of meetings, what times we should have them, and who is going to organise them.

If we finish early, there are some nice pubs around we might adjourn to afterwards.

Telephone 020 8771 6941. Please phone a couple of days before, to confirm if you’re coming (just so we can find enough chairs, tea, etc.)

Transport:
1) I can reserve one parking space if you call me in advance (first come first served). Otherwise I can direct to a nearby public car park.
2) Otherwise train from Victoria main line station to Gipsy Hill, then walk up steep hill.
Get a “West Croydon via Crystal Palace” train to Gipsy Hill station. These seem to be at 8 and 38 minutes past the hour on a Sunday.
At Gipsy Hill station, turn rightwards out of the station to walk UP the hill. At the top of the hill, cross over the main road (Central Hill) and continue straight on, passing Cooper Giles and Cafe Lava on your right. You are now in Westow Street. Cross over Westow Street and carry on past Ovett Close and Gurkha Cottage on your left, until you come to Carberry Road on your left. Turn down Carberry Road and walk past the Victorian cottages to the end. At the end, turn right and ours is the house on the corner (number 8 Telford Close) which is a 1980s house.
3) Or bus number 3 from Oxford Circus, Whitehall (either end), or Brixton tube – to Crystal Palace bus station. Note for Anna: you can pick up number 3 bus from near the Imperial War Museum.
Stay on the bus until the end of the route. It stops on Crystal Palace Parade on the same side as the park and bus station. Walk past the bus station on your left until you get to the corner. Cross over Crystal Palace Parade and walk round the corner so you are by the Bluebottle pub. The road you are now on is Westow Hill. Cross Westow Hill so you are near Palace Kebabs. Walk down Westow Hill (which isn’t a hill, oddly enough) away from the junction where you crossed until you get to Pizza Express. Turn left at Pizza Express down St Aubyn’s Road. Then take the second road on the right, which is Telford Close. Walk straight on and my house is number 8, in front of you at the end.
Other buses: 122, 157, 202, 227, 249, 322, 358, 363, 410, 417, 432, 450
