Our stroke of bad luck continues.
 I just checked the Mozilla Location and they are closed down totally (the lady at the reception told me)

So our options for tomorrow are:
Get an official slot at the London Hackspace
the tourist agency recommended to us:
Pubs have sometimes larger rooms willing to give away during the day if we consume something
get a conferernce room at a hotel

pascal and i will do a pubcrawl looking for a possibility.

if you know any place in london for up to 9 bitcoin people who want to code for a day and maybe a halv please let us know.

a very nice conference room at megaro hotel near kings cross.

they have dedicated wi-fi, power, projector, quiet room. it would cost 150 pounds for one day or 250 for two days. we could stay from the morning to 11 in the evening. also they have a restaurant attached.

please comment soon so we can come to a conclusion in a reasonable timeframe and a location where we meet tomorrow. if we take either of those two locations we should meet quite early.

personally i would be fine with either of those locations. the cafe is free but maybe not as convinient. the hotel would cost 31,25 pounds per person and we have a more professional environment.

I'm also OK with either of these venues, if we want to go the more professional route I'll BTC bankroll it with conference money, just for the day though.

Just back BTW

thanks for the reply. i propose we meet at king's cross at 8:30 to make the final decision. at the exit at king's cross right outside the megaro hotel/burger king. the locations are just a few minutes apart via subway but if we take the hotel we should be there on time.

you can take a look at the precise location here in street view:

i can sponsor a little extra too, since i got a donation for the video after the last hackathon..

If we go for the cafe route, we can use the funds on food instead of rent.

Anyway, 8:30 seems fine to me.

So is the hotel the final venue decision? Are there conference funds to cover it?

No. three of us showed up to the meeting location, so we decided to move to the cafe.
