Another Londoner here. By power of statistics there should be enough of us to organize it even the next weekend if we wanted.
If anybody else wants to organize that, go ahead, I don’t really have much experience in this. But in case there are no other volunteers I’ll do it. So if any Londoners interested in rationalist meetup in some coffeeshop or pub, just email me at Tomasz.Wegrzanowski@gmail.com If there will be 5 or more interested people, I’ll suggest some times and places and hopefully we can set the first meetup this way.
The first one is always the hardest, the next one will hopefully be less ad hoc than that.

I’d go for a weekday evening in a pub in town to kick off...
Weekdays are useless to anyone not actually in London—even close by, it would take too long to travel in after work.
Also, pubs are hugely overrated for serious talk, where you want less echoes, less music, less TV and less shouty people. Try a Starbucks?
Edit: meeting near a station or at least Zone 1 tube is also a plus.
I’m up for that—Tue/Wed/Thu (tho not in silly season). Alternatively, a weekend midday/afternoon, unless you’d like to come out to Windsor. :)
The post you’re replying to is very old, but see Calling LW Londoners—a meetup on Sunday 2011-01-02 seems likely!
Fantastic. Thanks for that :)
