How often do we all say that? And how often do we make good on every beer we propose? My guess is we all fall well short, even if you discount those instances where everybody knows it was just a throw-away remark.
And in the world of Tech PR its seems we accumulate large extended professional networks... and frankly we also deserve a few beers*!
So for this reason, I propose we get together in London to make good on those beers* and to bring together many mutual friends, colleagues and contacts from across the industry.
If you fancy it, a bunch of us will be upstairs at De Hems on Macclesfield Street in the West End, from about 6.30pm on 3rd June (click on the image, left, for more info on the venue and maps). I imagine a few of us will still be going strong some hours later.
Please let me know if you fancy coming along, post a comment below and register your interest, or drop me an email, so I can keep an idea of numbers.
Due to early interest already, I’ve upgraded the reservation from one table to a whole section of the upstairs at De Hems. If we want it, we can take the entire upstairs but I’d need to commit to numbers and a minimum spend…
UPDATE: ...oh, and we have a sponsor now.
(* or wines / spirits / fruit-based drinks...whatever takes your fancy!)

I'm in - make sure there's a bottle of Fruli with my name on it :)
Excellent news Rach! And as first person to post a response the Fruli is on me - as much as you can drink!*
(* ...an offer I make safe in the knowledge that two Fruli is the absolute limit any human being can manage before they go into hyperglycemic shock!)
I'm in. Can I have a free Fruli too?
Just because it's you Nick, and you asked so nicely, you can have a free Fruli too.
Schoolnight drinking - cripes, that takes me back. Oh...go on then.
See you there darlings. Cheers, Wadds
Yes please! I'm in. Fruli is for girls Nick...
I will be there but strongly object to the idea of being categorised as a tech PR, Sturgeon...
Yep, I'll be there and will be bringing a couple of CDRers. Fruli hopefully not compulsory..?
I'm in. It's two days after my stag so might be a bit worse for wear. Still you can buy me a Fruli
Red Rocket - fear not, you don't have to drink the red stuff... though the first one's a charm!
Drinks on you - fantastic! Will be there!
I should probably move to temper the notion the drinks are on me before this get out of hand! Think I've committed to a few Fruli, which I'll certainly honour...
A bottle of expensive imported lager please, the least pronounceable the better. Thanks.
I'll be there with a few peeps from GBC. Although last time I visited DeHems, was rolled out after one too many shots ;-)
Yup yup yup. one weird sounding beer for me please. thanks for organising.
Sophie - I can't vouch that won't be the case again this time but it will be good to see you and the rest of the GBC crew there.
So many PRs in one room usually results in a bad reaction on my skin, hence why my team have put me in the corner, but for you I'll make the effort (and bring some calamine)
I'll be there. Downing weird beers and generally being a nuisance.
Can't wait.
Sorry - in the states. Gutted i miss a chance to get truly Fruli. Next time...
Sorry to hear that Ross... Rachel will have to have yours for you!
It's all about the Fruli isn't it. God I hope they do it upstairs!
Will hopefully get there a bit later on in the evening...
TWL - I'll make sure we keep back some of the sponsor's cash for late-comers such as yourself...
After all, the only thing better than a Fruli is a free Fruli. Discuss.
i'll stay away from the Fruli and go for a raw, masculine drink instead...malibu and diet coke for Pablo
Drats, can't make it and was particularly looking forward to some scintillating Apprentice chat! :-) (for the record, soooooo pleased Ben has got - what a pig!)
I'll show my face for a beer and a chinwag for anyone
Ka - feel free to drop me an email and let me know your name and agency/company so I can add you to the list...
