\o - no objections from me. We could all actually fit well in the bar
area (and a sneak peak at the conference room and down to the servers
would be nice ;-)
The Adelphi also works in my mind, as I think it's not too busy or
loud, is close to some other folks I know (might help encourage them
along), and, err, my bus stop ;-)
I also have no problems with the Darcy, just for reference.
I will say that if we move to town and it turns out we get roughly the
same crowd then I think we'd discuss the Darcy again in time.
We can also discuss what sort of venue we need - even with the best
will I think it will take some group effort to get any ongoing talks
to start up. Right now we don't need a venue with room for talks,
unless somebody steps up to give one...
