Where did you go to, what did you drink and how much fun you two had.
Tell us the details.
It was a minor adventure getting into the pub. I rolled up just before 12, and it was quite dark inside. I tentatively pushed the door, found resistance and assumed it wasn't open yet. I went for a stroll along Pall Mall to kill some time, then returned and tried the door again - same result

Fortunately this time the barmaid stuck her head out of the door and advised me to push harder...
I did feel concern that by keeping JP in the pub all afternoon, I was I was distracting him from enjoying the sights of London, but he seemed happy enough having seen the Tower. He had been rather impressed by the dungeon, probably acquired a few ideas

The answer to what we drank is "Far too much".
At the end of the evening, I managed to make it home eventually, despite falling asleep on the train. A nice lady woke me up as I lay there in a stupor to make sure I got off at the last stop. A return trip to London might indeed be called for at some point, but not at that precise time! I had been quite overcome by the experience at this point, although it could also have been something to do with far too many beers in an afternoon.
It was very nice to have met the Megalomaniac behind the Monster. Definitely an interesting experience!
