you staying in london or just changing flights at heathrow airport?

Staying one night in London with a co-worker, Simon Wistow, on the way back. That way I can both see London, and not wake up early for any flights. :-)

Would be happy to help you through our city.
I can meet you at airport. We had some conversation few years ago, about LJ payments for russian users.

Anyway, you can phone me at my cells: +74957724974 or +79015329937 or US number at my homeplace: +19177799891.

How much time do you plan to spent here in Moscow?

It would be really great to meet you here in Moscow! :)

I think there will be an LJ user meet-up/party Wednesday or Thursday night .... ? Don't worry, I'll get the word out. :-)

Is it a private meeting, or anyone can join?

I think the people I'm hanging out with are planning a public event. If not, I'll ask you to organize one at a bar somewhere? But I'm pretty sure something public's already planned.... I'll let you know as soon as I know.

P.S. Almost all power converters are fit to work here, you just have to get dirt cheap little converter for power outlet. I have many US devices at my place.

The sleeves from sfbags.com are very nice for laptops.

I think the best camera choices for P&S right now are Panasonic Lumix FX01 (which I just bought; older, but has a 28mm equiv wide angle), or the Canon IS800/IS900.

I bought a few "travel smart" universal anything to anything a/c adapters and have been happy with them. I also have wonpro power strips if I need multiple outlets.
