    You guys are awesome! Booked the hotel for 49 pounds. I trust it's not toooooo much of a rat infested hole :D

    Anyway, is anyone staying there by chance also going to see Muse the night before?

    I'd like to, but I can't find any tickets. What hotel are you staying in, I haven't even booked one yet. :o

    Just a quick note, it may be old news but I haven't time to check as I gotta rush out this morning. Anyway (hello by the way haven't posted for an age!) Chris Cornell has been confirmed as playing Hyde Park on the 24th June, so the chances of him being in london the same time as Pearl Jam are very good if you get what I'm saying. I will literally wet my pants!!!!!!

    If anyone is travelling north to south and back again on the train the cheap advance tickets are now available for June 18th/19th. I got 2 singles for £21.30 (York to London on GNER) travelling down on Monday and home on Tuesday. I haven't checked other routes and train companies but now is the time to look if you want cheap fares. I got mine from

    not that it matters now dude, but GNER is offering 10% web discount and has no credit card fees.. could have saved all of £4.80 that way ;)

    i went to this pub just off Shaftesbury Avenue where the price of a pint was £1.80 max... it was a Samuel Smiths own brewery pub and that was their standard price!!! :):):):)

    yeah, the Sam Smith's pubs are all relatively cheap because they stock a non-standard range of draught beers. some of it's quite good but it's all a bit disconcerting when you go to the bar and there're all these weird names on the taps...!

    or is it just me being easily confused ? (no comments V!!!)
    Oh yeah? Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts, dunces, dullards and dumbbells - and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering hayseed, you - you've had enough of me?
