Christmas Day. London.

Prompted by this thread, what are London Barbeloids doing on Christmas Day?

This is a slightly half-cocked Gathering thread because I've very little idea a) what's open, and b) what we'll be doing in the latter part of Christmas Day. If others are at a loose-ish end, though, it might be nice to meet up and, uh, do stuff. Be warned: it's a Saturday and, being gay men, we may want to dance.

Bleh.

Well, I doubt this will appeal to the gay man dancing inside anyone, but the Andre Street Studio in Hackney is apparently going to be open to all Xmiss day. They are planning a not very thoroughly planned all day/night jam wherein one brings one's instruments, voice, whatever and joins in on long free range jams. (Set those berries free)
There will be music obviously, and no doubt all manner of other illicit/illegal activity.
I think (but am not sure) that one has to be "in the know".
Now YOU know. PM me if you want the email addy to ask for directions, invite, etc.
I know my husband is dying to go but is afraid of being hit with a frying pan if he dares to admit to me he'd rather be there than home playing with the mrs. and baby on Christmas.
Wonder if I should just let him off the hook?

ps, that may have sounded a bit jaded towards gay dancing men and I want to assure all that it isn't. I know the distribution of sexual pursuits and persuasions of the patrons of Andre Street are wide and variable. There would most certainly be all sorts and then some and another. However, there will be little if any good gay disco going on. Unless I'm wrong and it's like that other time....
