Thank you for all of your wonderful suggestions you submitted to meet up. I received the most votes for a Meet Up at the Tate Modern in London. So let’s meet up on Friday July 17th @ 7:00 p.m. for a no-host dinner at the Tate Modern Restaurant, it is located on Level 7 with one of the best views in London.
Look forward to seeing you there!
