It has been far too long since the last Hacker News London meetup. Over the past few months quite a few people mentioned interest in a get together. So here it is.

Please join us on Thursday, 24th June from 18:30 at the Lightbar on Shoreditch Highstreet (http://www.thelighte1.com/).

Also, since the Seedcamp deadline is coming up, several Seedcamp alumni have agreed to come along and answer your questions about the programme. So if you want the lowdown on what to expect or some advice on applying, then you are in luck.

If you are coming please leave a comment below to help us keep track of the numbers.

Ben Dowling and Dmitri Grabov

You should get the owners of the UK Hacker News group on Facebook to send a message out, as there's about ~220 members on it and you might get quite a lot of people who miss this post.

Annoyingly that clashes in my diary. :-(

I hope it goes so well that you absolutely have to do another one next month.

Thanks for the pointer. Will give them a shout now.

Amazingly I will actually be in London and don't currently have a commitment. I'm speaking at a school in the afternoon, and at the Royal Institution the following day, but Thursday evening is free.

Will there be food? Ah - now visited the web site and it appears the answer is yes.
