I'd like to go but unfortunately am working. I cannot help but suspect it will be dominated by rowers and rowing matters!

ah, but rowing doesn't matter! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Wonder how long thats been advertised for??? Seems very short notice and I cant recall having had any info about it thru the PLA mailing system.

I think they've kept this fairly quiet - presumably having advised organisations? Would certainly have gone had I known in time but already committed for tomorrow evening. I'll try and find out tomorrow when the rest of the 'ongoing programme of open meetings' are and, if I can, will post.

Quite a few of us in London will be going...representing the mobo's! Let me know if you've got specific questions you want raised. I'll report back on relevant issues.

Questions from me:

a) are the plans for a mooring at Hermitage Wharf (Wapping) for historic craft going ahead and, if so, will there be space for temporary moorings for visiting private boats? While I accept that its up to the private developers in the end, I assume PLA will have a view on attracting more private boats to the centre of London.
b) Is the fueller Burgen going to move as a result of the Hermitage Wharf development?
c) Inevitably - what's the current thinking on the speed limit? When will the consultation take place?
d) As per my above post - dates for future public meetings?

Sorry for the big list - but you did ask!

No prob's. I think quite a few of us share your concerns.
