This edition is the London Bloggers Summer party and it looks like being a smashing social.

I've found a new venue with it's own private bar, plenty of space and cracking views over the Thames.

I've also arranged for Stella Artois to buy everyone a couple of drinks and to run a competition to win a trip over London in the Stella airship.

Please let us know if you are coming by RSVP'ing as soon as possible.

See you on the 29th July.

  “ This was a nice, relaxed meeting where we had the chance to interact and know each other, although I did not mind the previous one with some presentations, which also generate interesting Q&A sessions ”
- Zoe Bran
  
  “ Great location and view. Poor acoustics, finally had to almost shout to have conversation and asked to have music lower (which helped a bit!). Free drinks was brilliant and the food looked great.I noticed that the larger space made it less likely people moved around and talked to other groups than their own. The upside of that for me was that I got to know a small number of people really well! ”
- Peter Marshall
  
  “ Best yet Andy - will send some snaps shortly ”
- Gary Andrews
