Londoners get your act together!

We ask and ask and ask and ask and keep on asking but STILL it looks like we will have to stop drinking at 10.30pm the night before the concert. I'm sorry but this is simply not good enough. Cos you're gonna keep on saying 'oh yeh, we must find somewhere open later' and then I can see us wandering the streets of London at 11pm with everyone frantically trying to phone Keith, who of course has his phone switched off.

So come on, is it really too much to ask to find a place that's open until... even midnight... since we're all grown ups and all :rolleyes:

Please? :)
The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
Verona??? it's all surmountable
Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
Wembley? We all believe!
Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
Chicago 07? And love
What a different life
Had I not found this love with you

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Richmond way would be absolutely lovely but I'm not too sure it would be a popular choice.

    HH.. I'm sure we can find all night off licenses!

    The White Cross in Richmond is nice... next to the river (and sometimes in it)... and it has an outside bar in the summer...

    Idea number 1: We find who is the landlord/landlady become 'friendly' with him/her (we can draw straws) and arrange a lockin.

    Idea number 2: We go for the Guinness world record of the amount of drunken PJ fans into one hotel room.

    Idea number 3:Been mentioned i think, offliscense and then a park of somesort singing and drinking long into the night. Tents optional.

    Idea number 4:We get THAT hammered before half ten we wont remember the next day we had to cut it short early.

    Idea number 5:YOU think of something i'm not doing all the work around here.

    so as yet we have the choice between a park bench and a gay club!!

    well i'm inviting the supercool folk back to the travelodge for some late night/early morning shenanigans... loads of us are staying there anyway and people are welcome to sleep on the floor (my friend has no idea about this but i'll get him drunk and tell him!)

    but if anyone knows of a gay club then thats the preferred option... my sweet taught butt will get fondled to death though :rolleyes:
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
