Yay and woo.

I'm planning my little jaunt for some time in the next couple of weeks and I'm looking to co-ordinate my visit with any groovy happenings. What cool stuff is going down that I simply cannot miss? Who must I hasten to catch before they jet off to distant lands? That sort of thing.

sorry, country yokel so have no idea about big city happenings but wanted to say

Woooooooooooooooooooo

We are toasting your visit in the Dev*/some other dark hole with beer, aren't we? When? When?

*which I only encountered 'IRL' recently, walking there with a friend joking about my Adidas top and having him tell me that actually they had a 'sportswear' ban, but that as I was with him I'd probably be fine. Gotta love Goth pubs.

Actually, the Pataphysics museum (by appt only) are (I think still) running a wand exhibition that various people have said is rather fab.

Might be worth a look?

Um, not sure exactly when but in a week or two. And the Dev would be great, if only for nostalgia. (Ahh, all the post-Slimes comedowns I nursed there over a pint of lager...)

well, having broken (my unimagined) Dev virginity, I'm game! You can tell me stories of your yooth...

Heh. I once went to a wedding reception in the Dev. A goth wedding, obviously. It was fun. (Haven't been there for a while, though...)

Yay! Will look forward to seeing you!

it would be good to see you again M. carnival - are you both ajective-verbs going to be in town at the same time?

No, the Archive will be staying here, recovering from the interview process.

If you're in London the weekend of the 16th July you can see Hunting Lodge.

Way to spam, spamboy

!

Yeah, come that weekend, MC... I'm on holiday from work.

12:15 / 10.07.05

Hunting Lodge. Oooh, tempting... I'll see what the airfares are like.

Less searchable M0rd4nt

12:22 / 10.07.05

...damn. I'd love to, but the fares are ten times as much if I travel before the 20th. Sod. Oh well, some other time.

Less searchable M0rd4nt

13:15 / 10.07.05

Right, I've not booked yet but it's looking like I'll be in London from the 20th and heading back on the 2nd of August. Somewhere in between, I will need to spend a few days with the parental units/various family.

Cherielabombe

17:44 / 10.07.05

wooot!!!!!1 Yay Mordant's coming back!

STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK

21:27 / 10.07.05

...and the Devvy take the hindmost!

Olulabelle

I can't tell you how excited I am!

Picnic plans...we need picnic plans.

Jack The Bodiless

10:09 / 12.07.05

Sweeeet. I shall, if at all possible, be there, wherever y'all decide there is...

Less searchable M0rd4nt

22:01 / 13.07.05

Right then.

I shall be flying in on the 20th, and should be in the general vicinity of proper London by two-ish, I suppose. Collapsing in a park with a few cold ones sounds like a plan.

Then I'll be avaliable until the 25th when I fuck off for a few days to tend to the Parental Units and siblings 1 through 3. I shall return on the 30th and bum around London a bit more, then head back to Spain on the 2nd of August.

The queue for Mordanty goodness starts here. Take a number, kittens.

Quantum

09:41 / 14.07.05

I take the number three please Mordant.

Picnic!!!!

In Hyde park!!!!!!!!

it will be great and cheap!!!!

Less searchable M0rd4nt

12:07 / 14.07.05

Picnic in Hyde Park sound gooood. Shall we do that Wednesday afternoon then?

mondo a-go-go

12:19 / 14.07.05

What is it with Sleaze and Hyde Park? Why there, specifically?

Might I suggest Kensington Gardens, next to the Serpentine, instead? It's just that it's more specific and easier to find... Hyde Park is pretty large... but it connects to Kensington Gardens, so you can still say we're meeting in Hyde Park! :]

Beep me when you get to London, MC -- I should be out and about all day if you want to hook up before meeting the others when they get out of work...

Gypsy Lantern

What is it with Sleaze and Hyde Park? Why there, specifically?

It's to do with his master plan. Haven't you ever noticed losing an hour or two when you've been in the vicinity of Hyde Park with Sleaze. Waking up with strange gaps in your memory and weird recollections about dank underground stairwells, midgets wearing weird unidentifiable livery, and an irrational fear of coconut and feathers.

Watch yourself on wednesday, eh.

Bill Posters

14:09 / 14.07.05

So Sleaze is not actually a Saricen terrroist, but something eve more sinister? Splendid! I should be able to make this, but just in case I'm not, what with it being during school time an' all, will there be other chances? (Surely I'm not the only one in that position?)

Less searchable M0rd4nt

14:50 / 14.07.05

Oh, shedloads of other chances. I'll be around over the weekend, for a start, so we should be able ot do something then.

Less searchable M0rd4nt

17:49 / 14.07.05

Oh, one thing I simply MUST do while in London or my head will explode is see the Frida Khalo exhibition. Anyone else want to come?

Cherielabombe

07:14 / 15.07.05

I love Hyde Park too actually. Love the history, the Albert Memorial, and I like the fact it's so big people get lost in there. But I am happy with either place, as long as there's a picnic. Where'd you like to picnic, Mordant?

Our Lady Has Left the Building

13:27 / 15.07.05

So, presumably people are wanting to picnic on wednesday 27th July which is literally the one wednesday in the month that I have to work? Bitches, the lot of you.

if yr head were to explode you'd be in good company, there's been a lot of it about lately...

Less searchable M0rd4nt

14:35 / 15.07.05

Calm down, Flowers, there will be other picnics. Bitch.

Olulabelle

22:13 / 15.07.05

Why must you picnic in the week? What is wrong with the goodness of weekends, when the normal folk come out to play?

This is Elvish injustice in Barbelith form. Just because you're special and live forever you think you can make Wednesdays days of fun. Well you can't.

You can't I tell you.

Less searchable M0rd4nt

22:23 / 15.07.05

Once more, I say: There will be other picnics! I will picnic at the weekend too and others will picnic with me! We shall FROLIC!

So: looks like Wednesday will be Kensington Gardens, yes? Whither shall we wander on Saturday?

Tryphena Absent

22:30 / 15.07.05

If anyone fancies the heath that would be marcellous. I'd like to meet Olulabelle so it would be great if weekend picnic time wasn't the 30th when I will be heading in a Northerly direction away from London.

Less searchable M0rd4nt

22:35 / 15.07.05

No! It shall be on a weekend where you are not not in London. Actually that Saturday is the 23rd and Sirius will be rising, so I should like to get all messed up cheap booze and sweeties and possibly set fire to something for devotional reasons.

Olulabelle

23:01 / 15.07.05

23rd? Is that not next weekend? I am very happy with that. *Temple forum comment, please ignore* -23rd things being goodly.

Also seeing Nina and Mordant both together makes me smile.

Any park is good for me since I am not Londoncentric and have to get the train from the countree.
