Free room hire....well, sort of. A couple of weeks ago I was back in London and wanted to hold a reasonably discreet meeting with a visiting academic. My immediate thought was to use the RAF Club and I enquired whether I could use one of the small meeting rooms - no need for beverages, VAs - just 2 chairs and a table. As a member I was quoted GBP50 for 2 hours use of the President's Room.
I declined and we met in the business suite in the basement. Luckily tehre was no one else around and the meeting went well - and there's free tea and coffee too!
