Meet in London

[Radical]

Hello everyone
I am walking the Camino for the first time next May.
Is there anyone in London that has walked the Camino Frances that would fancy meeting for a coffee to give me some pointers?

If you want to talk to many people about the Camino I suggest you join the CSJ and go to their AGM & Party on Sat 25 January at St Alban's Centre, Holborn, EC1
11.30am AGM Lecture, workshops, party etc

or to learn about day to day matters on the Camino go to their

London Practical Pilgrim Day on Saturday 22 February at John Marshall Hall, 27 Blackfriars Road, SE1 8NY
10.30-3pm

Do you have to be a member to attend or to meet new peregrinos to offer advice?

I have always been a member so I do not know. You can give them a ring.
Contact details are here:

The AGM is for CSJ members but you don't have to be a CSJ member to attend the Practical Pilgrim day in February. There'll be lots of first-timers as well as old hands (or should that be feet?) at the PP day. We'll also have at least one Saturday Open Office day (in London SE1) in March and April which provide a quieter place for talking about pointers and ideas. The dates will go up on the website in the New Year http://www.csj.org.uk . Also, the office is open on a Thursday for people who want to drop in for a chat and some pointers and to have a look at the maps and guide book options.
I see the North West (England) people are organising a get-together through this forum. If there is any interest in doing something similar in London, then I'd be up for that.
