very pretty and very good colours!

as long as it doesn't pour down, it's fine by me. hammersmith is not that shaded if it rains a lot.. plus it's been raining a HELL lot here, so everything is better than this. I do ADORE london and half of the pleasure of this trip is mika (and the mfc'ers) and half is london. I do plan to go and visit my "old faves" and sink in the atmosphere BTW, it'll be good to finally meet you!

well, it happened in brixton last time I was there, so I'd not be surprised if someone does with this. it looks though, like it's a "2nd class london gig" so far.. very few mfc'ers.. well, we'll see what happens. i'll try and be relaxed about this trip.

oh, I may look for the hyde park ones next week! thx for the tip! I plan some london-time as well as queueing: I am going to enjoy my time there. I hope the weather helps. anyone knows how are the forecasts?

got o st. james' park and chase the squirrels: that was fun!

hi, clelia!! surely hope to meet ya there! pls, call me if you see me and I don't see ya in the chaos that'll be there last time I was in hammersmith, I used the theatre cloackroom, it's on the left when you enter the hall. I think it costed a few pounds, but it's much more practical. last time I dropped there also my suitcase as I was coming directly from the airport. are ya attending 1st gig too?

I KNOW I'm gonna be in the back of beyond for this and esp. for the previous one.. arriving on sunday early afternoon and I'd like to leave my trolley at hotel, not to end up like my last gig at hammersmith, where I arrived in travelling clothes, with my suitcase and all, when the opening act was already over! all I care about is to see decently mika and enjoy the concert in a quiet spot, possibly with some mfc'ers not far from me, as it's always funnier when we share the enthusiasm as for monday (this gig, in fact), I may start queueing about the same time. only two days in london, which I truly adore, and not a chance in the world to make it front row anyway, since people's probably starting to queue in the night, which I'm not prepared to do. I'm getting too old for this queueing thing..

thx for the pics, deb. his clothes are awful but it's good to see him again..

ohhh.. thats what rose was talking about then.-.. is any MMFC'er going, like last years? So out of the loop.. so little online these days.. I'm terrible out of date.. not surprised he didn't win. underestimated genius

oh, cutey! love it, so many lovely pets in this thread.. must ge round to picture my cats to..

it'd not be the first time he gets confused with his tour dates...

defo biiig misunderstanding: hopeless at sewing. I said maybe I can present you with some models, some ideas of voodoo dolls, but it's not even sure as you all seem much more skilled in this whole voodoo dolls thing soo, go ahead with your possible project of a felter doll. mine was mostly a joke about a MFC vodoo dolls, since he's :naughty:always been so kind with us and often, so we may be a good target for some curses

snowed heavily all yesterday, some of it gone today, due to temp rise, more snow forecasted from friday.

thanks for the suggestion. I'll consider that

ohhh.. love gale.. esp. paired with randy.. awww.. romantic! this guy I find very cute: he stars in some teens Tv series but he's got a nice smile

snows. a lot love it!

I hope you manage to come somehow.. would love to meet you in person... nice to know I'll meet you too, sabine, and in munchen too, apparently god, mika, this date is SO badly chosen.. mid week. tsk.. still I coulòdn't miss it

thx for the all the info, mellody. notes to self to remember rereading this as the gig comes closer.. got flight and tick for this but no hotel yet. anyone can recommend anything..? hotel, not hostel pls.

ok, uptodate now. I'll work out smt, but at the moment laptop's crashed, pc is ok but printer won't work and same goes for scanner, so basically I am stuck will try and come up with smt decent, though my contribution to enconters with john during 2009 is really poor. now 2008 is totally another story, but I sense that's too old. nice idea about the vodoo doll: I think he may want to do an MFC doll, with our "familiar faces", bless him not the best creativity when it comes to sew, but maybe I can find some models to present you with..
