Have fun.

That's the plan. I suppose ending up at a west end pub for a meal might
be part of it too.


On past experience I can recommend the Jugged Hare, a Fullers pub,
down Vauxhall Bridge Road from Victoria, by Rochester Row. Beer and
food both decent and they will reserve an area for you if you arrange
in advance.

Plenty of Boris Buses at Victoria plus you can show the students the
extent of the site works for the expansion of Victoria LU. You also
have a direct tube to KX to connect for Cambridge.


Thanks for those further suggestions. I'll try and report back on progress!



The Jugged Hare used to be my local, so glad to hear it still has a good
reputation!

I was going to suggest Greenwich as a place with several decent pubs to get
a bite to eat in - and it would allow you to take in the Thames Clipper
river services as well (if transport not involving steel wheels is on the
agenda!) And a convenient interchange with the DLR, of course.
