According to Guy Taylor, the pub they met at (Ye Olde Trip To Jerusalem) was supposed to open early to provide sustenance for the troops. It wasn't. Apparently Mark "Seylon" Haining was supposed to have organised this ... oh well what do you expect?

There was a planned preview of the shockumentary film The Great British Mortgage Swindle on 2 May.

The TGBMS Facebook page has an update on Tom's hearing, but no mention of how the preview went, or even if it was shown at all.
