When is last orders? If the O2 show doesn't finish till 11, I doubt you'd make it to hammersmith for last orders?
1:30am/2am with possible 3am close if enough people turn up!

It's 55minutes on the tube to get there & easy to find for those who've never been to London before.. Hardly impossible. Night buses run to all parts of London from Hammersmith every few minutes, 24hours a day. And it's FREE.

I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm saying too much effort for me to travel an hour! But hope it goes well!

I'm probably going, as it's not like I have to work the next morning, so I don't care how long it'll take me to get there or to come back to the hostel

This for me as well, I have to be back on my coach for 9 so will need some sleep, if its 55 minutes by tube how long would it be to come back to the Docklands in a taxi, also the price would be too much.

If enough people are travelling to and from Hammersmith back to the Docklands area after the gig via taxi then let me know, might be up for sharing one but there's no way I am doing night buses.

And if a group of FDers decide meeting up anywhere closer to the venue before the gig then again that might work out better for most people. But we've got a couple of weeks so I guess that can all be arranged in good time. I'll know a lot of people that'll just be queuing all day and I can't be bothered with that now so I'll have to find a new group of people to make a day of it with!!

I suppose will be limited to where we could go if the pubs shut at 11, I could always upgrade my hotel room and open the mini bar for everyone
