+ convincing and up-to-date material for those annoying client
+ interviews.... If you don't work for ThoughtWorks, it's a
+ good way to try and get hired. (If you do work for ThoughtWorks,
+ asking around for job opportunities is deeply frowned upon!)
+
+ Format is informal, round-the-table natter. With the emphasis on
+ no stress, chilled (but no cannabis, please). It's like ExtremeTuesdayClub
+
+ Success is indicated by new inspiration and cross-fertilisation
+ ('What? You've already coded that?'; 'I had the same idea in
+ the bath last night!', etc.).
+
+ Acceptable subjects of discussion are not limited to XP:
+
+ Open Source; XML-based architectures; J2EE/EJB/.NET; Agile/
+ Continuous Integration; UML; Linux; vi/emacs/IntelliJ;
+ my swanky Sharp Zaurus; your swanky iPAQ; MacOs X; EAI and
+ B2B; P2P; Intellectual Property; DMCA; GPL; Asynchronous
+ and Declarative architectures; Slashdot/SourceForge/
+ Freshmeat/Kuro5hin/Advogato, my weblog's hotter than
+ yours; my dot-com bombed bigger than yours, etc., etc.
+
+ When and Where:-
+
+ Thursdays from noon, upstairs in the Artillery Arms
+ (go up Moorgate towards Finch's, keep walking to the cemetery
+ past the artillery/barracks entrance, walk through the cemetery
+ and it's right there). The appropriately-named 'AA' pub serves
+ fine Fuller's ales and nice grub, and upstairs is spacious,
+ bright and airy. Soft drinks and/or single pints are
+ acceptable, given the pressures of work.
+
+ Map and Pointer:-
