I will be speaking there:

Really nice to recognize a name here. Such a shame I won't be able to attend this, I have to return to Portugal on the 17th.

I heard some tales of you in Fullsix when I worked there and would love to get to know how it's going on SO. Best of the luck for the presentation.

I was in Fullsix in May giving the long version of this. Were you attending?

Oh no, didn't even know that happened.

This is in the middle of LinuxCon Edinburgh, a huge Linux conference being held in the UK for the first time in a long time.

Well, they shouldn't have scheduled their Con up against HNLondon!

Edinburgh is on the other side of the country. HNLondon is popular, but we don't quite have that much pull.

I have been to a few now and I live in NI

Not just on the other side, but 400+ miles away, and in a different country ;)

It also clashes with London Node.js User Group (which I'm talking at!) http://lanyrd.com/2013/lnug-october/

Where's your loyalty!?

This is a great event. I'd highly recommend it to anyone in the London area.

Really excited to come along as I've not been to a tech meet up in London before. First time being around likeminded others was at WWDC and that was awesome!

I was skeptical at first, but this is a good event. Worth the money.

EDIT: If you want pizza, though, get there early.

Interesting.. Woz is giving a talk that same day, in the morning, in London @Appsworld.

I'm heading along to that, from Dublin, and I'm thinking I might stay an extra day in order to go to this meetup.
