The first session of Legacy will be at the Old Kings Head on Saturday 12th May (ie this weekend)
I've got the upstairs room booked from 2pm-10pm, for an extended-length session.
I'll be there from a bit earlier than this, so I'm there to open up - if anyone wants to try to grab me before the game, let me know and I'll quantify 'earlier' with you!
Information about Legacy can be found here:
Legacy LJ communityOC summary: Indie, Old-WOD Werewolf campaign, running monthly in London, STed by
madwitch,
lanfykins and myself. Low-ranked, high personal plot, and the usual helpings of doom and angst, but hopefully only the IC variety - we're running this for everyone's enjoyment, including our own!
IC summary: The Warlord of the UK, and all the members of the Albion's Hearth sept were killed 3 days ago, but the caern has survived due to the Warlord's sacrifice. After discussion, the remaining members of the Elder Council have called a levy on the other septs around the country, asking them to send whoever they can spare long-term/permanently to re-populate the sept.

Pub Address:
King's Head Yard
45-49 Borough High Street
SE1 9AL
Multimap:
here (somewhat annoyingly, I don't think it actually shows Kings Head Yard!)
Directions:
Very easy once you've been there once, but I'll list them explicitly.
From the Underground: exit London Bridge station by the Borough High Street exit. Take the escalators on your left (rather than the stairs) as you come out of the ticket gates - the escalators are signposted as the EAST side of the high street - and turn left when you come out of the exit. King's Head Yard is a matter of yards further on (again on your left!), and the pub is in front of you, on your right. If you do take the more distant stairs from the ticket gates, you'll come up on the other side of the junction and need to cross the road - you should be able to see the King's Head Yard easily enough though.
From the overground: Take whichever exit is easiest for you, and head for Borough High Street, following it away from the river: From Tooley Street, that's turn left when you exit the station, then left again down the High Street; From St Thomas Street, it's turn right when you exit the station, then left down the High Street. Walk down Borough High Street (you'll walk past the Borough St exit to London Bridge underground station, as mentioned above), and King's Head Yard is on your left - and the pub is in front of you, on your right. If you go right past the island in the moddle of the road with the Slug and Lettuce on it, you've overshot - the underground station is your last useful landmark before the Yard.
By car: Um...there is parking marked nearby on the map, but from the location I have a nasty suspicion it may be hospital parking, which will probably be ££silly. Any suggestions from the drivers? I'd suggest dropping cars off at London players' houses and taking public transport in may actually be easier, but I'm a coward. (Sarah, if you're crashing at ours, we have some visitor permits left in the book for parking on our road)
Other notes:
There's several cashpoints easily found on the High Street if you need to get money. I've personally paid to hire the room - if people can give me £2/head towards it, it would be gratefully received.
It's a pub, please buy drinks, it keeps the landlord happy.
It's a pub, please DON'T bring in your own food and drink. It makes the landlord unhappy.
I don't know whether there'll be pub food available on the day - if there isn't, we will take a break to go and grab food at some point.
Borough Market is across the road if by some fluke people get there early and want to go drool at all the nice food.
From my own experience, bags have occasionally 'walked' from the Borough area - we've got a private room so you should be fine with stuff up there, but please keep an eye on your own belongings elsewhere.
