I am staying around Victoria Station and will have a few at the Bag o nails, then meeting a few fellow Canadians at Finnegans Wake (SW1) before heading to towards Shepard's Bush. What is the name of the huge Pub next to the venue? I remeber having a great time two years ago before the show. Would love to hook up with stragglers
