I vote the last Sunday of the month.
Nice autumn time, gets dark earlier for some night lights and all.
One thing though, we'll have to do a different area of London, South Banks last time, maybe more Architectural/Inside buildings visit if anyone have a good few locations?

On another note, why Sundays? I don't mind it but Saturday is also a valid option.
 
I could potentially do the 17th or 24th but that would depend on where I might be on the Monday with work. I'll abstain from voting and hopefully will be available to attend nearer the date.
 
Saturday is better, i dont want to have to pay congestion charge after 11:59pm when im trying to get out of london by car!
 
Well Sunday seemed the better day as I thought more people would be off work etc but if it makes things easier a sat is fine by me!! The only weekend I'm unable to make is the first weekend in oct as I'm on holiday but the rest suit me just fine, sat or sun! Depending on the price i may be daring and take public transport! After paying 25 to park min and 40 on fuel it may be cheaper to chug down in cattle class on the train!!

Sounds good to me as a starting point. If we're doing canary wharf, I think it's generally best to write ahead to get a letter of permission so that the security don't hastle you. No point doing that until a date's set though, obviously.

I'm planning on wandering around Canary Wharf when I'm down in London, do you normally get hassle from the security guards there?

What's the deal with writing ahead? Can anyone do it?
