Hmm. Thrust once more into the role of Party Chairman :]

Last time, the meeting point was  the top of the stairs that lead from the
underground portion of Euston station.
<<<<<<
I take it you mean the "main, obvious" escalators down, from the large courtyard
at the front of the station?  There's(DEIXIS.PRES/PAST.IIRC)* another set of
stairs down from one of the ramps down to the platforms.

(Do we all need to wear a red carnation, or some such "secret sign"? :-)

[I myself am relatively hard to miss, just look out for an orang-utan smoking a
hand-made cigarette.  (It's a partial literary allusion, but also sadly true).]

From there, we basically planned what
to do next on an impromptu basis. There is a nice pub just outside the
station, although there probably are nicer ones in walking distance.

Nice here meaning well-furnished with decent sized tables, should we decide
to illustrate our conlangs with copious files handwritten in nearly
illegible scrawl.
<<<<<<
Sounds like a good plan.  What's the name of the place?
