UPDATE:
The 6:30 Mass at Maiden Lane, for HM the Queen, is on, but I am not liturgically involved. Do take in the Mass and gain its benefits. I will head to the Coal Hole either way, aiming at about 7:00 pm MONDAY or shortly after (depending on if I also chose to hear Mass). Text around to friends and let others know as you will. I have received word from a few people who are coming. Some friends, such as His Hermeneuticalness and Mulier Fortis are away on pilgrimage.

Some people have asked about a blognic in London. I would be happy to participate.
Otherwise, perhaps Friday 8 June in the evening.
If you are in the area, drop me a line and I can send my UK mobile number for texting/meeting purposes. Some of you should have it already. If you write, use the CONTACT option on this blog’s top menu and put: “FR UK MOBILE TEXT ME” in the subject line – and include your mobile number! I also have my skype number: 02081334535 – though I don’t check that as often.
Any Chance for a blognic on Tuesday evening? I’ll be in London on Business, albeit only from Tuesday to Wednesday, unfortunately.
[Maybe we can meet up. Drop me a line with a mobile number for texting purposes]
Regrets. Am in Southern California.
Hope you have opportunity to do some Jubilee stuff.

If I didn’t have a broken foot in a cast, I’d fly over for that — cos I know Supertradmum will probably be there, too! (my two favorite blogs – yours and hers, Fr Z.)
Sorry, I am on pilgrimage to Walsingham this week and will be at the conference on Saturday. I am not sure I can make the blognic on Friday night, but if you are up to it, maybe a pint after the conference with some of us would be nice.
I have had a few sms texts from people who are coming. It will be nice to see people again.
Interesting, Father. A friend just sent me these updates. I am from Kansas City, and my sisters from Pittsburgh, PA. We are vacationing together in London this week! And I was just at that 6:30pm Mass at Corpus Christi on Maiden Lane earlier this evening…
I do hope you enjoy your stay in London, as my sisters and I certainly are!
Cheers! :)
We had a nice small gathering last night, very friendly. A few people sat at another table down the way and didn’t have much to do with our other little group. I think they were on their regular and habitual post-Mass schedule. Still, it was very nice to see people.
Hi, is there one for Friday and when and where? I shall be in London.
