Andrew: Hey! Splendid news. I’m going to be in London next week. Anyone up for a drink?
Sophie: Yeah, I’ll be around so do let me know when you’re available
Ruth: Oh hey! Thanks for letting me know. I unfortunately can’t travel to London this time. Bus tickets probs wouldn’t be that expensive during the week, so that’s not an issue
Ruth: But I have loads of accumulated marking to do and still some courses to teach during the week
Ruth: Too much work 
Ruth: 🏴‍☠️
Andrew: Sorry to hear this Ruth
Andrew: But I’m sure you can make it 🙌🏽
Ruth: Thanksss
Irene: Hey guys 🙋
Irene: I’m defs around next week. Would go for Friday though as I also have quite a lot of work during the week
Irene: Would that work  Andrew?
Andrew: Yer, no problem. I’ll be attending a conference and doing some research at Senate House too, so it might make more sense to meet towards the end of the week
Sophie: Yeah, Friday evening or Saturday anytime would be ideal for me
Andrew: Cool 👍🏽
Andrew: I’ll get back to you when a place comes to mind. I’d say let’s meet somewhere central
Sophie: Sounds good to me 👍
Irene: That’s fine by me too
Andrew: Cool, I’ll be in touch soon then
Andrew: I’ve got to be going now, I’ve just realised my seminar starts in like 10 minutes 😱
Ruth: Oh lol don’t be late
Sophie: Ok, we’ll talk soon then
Irene: Good luck with the teaching
Andrew: Thanks! 😚
Andrew: Have a nice evening everyone
Andrew will be in London next week and would like to meet up. Ruth is too busy to meet up but Sophie and Irene will join him towards the end of the week.
