AKateisaKate Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 It's a hip and happening part of London. http://www.camdenguide.co.uk/ Markets, music venues, shops, very touristy. Koko, where Mika played is there, but the other end of the high street. Did he ever do Camden Barfly? I don't know but Palladuim did, you've got the Electric Ballroom and the Roundhouse (where the Brits Nominations party came from) It's a busy, busy area day or night. Sometimes I have come home that way at one or two in the morning and the streets are still packed with people. Ah, thank you for the info. I figured it was something along those lines.

babspanky Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Winehouse's local ..wine...house? (*resists urge to insert insensitive and slightly vicious remark*) I go to Camden every week with my sister. She buy's Chinese food from the market and then we walk to Primrose Hill and sit on top of London looking at the pretty lights Give it a miss this week then, luv. and keep your vicious little comments to yourself.

Blue Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Fire Brigade guy just confirmed that the fire was centred around the canal market. Sounds like the place where we had our 'Mika afternoon' with the MFC on the 4th of December. That was right in between the canal and the Market.

babspanky Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Shouldn't that be R.I.P. Camden canal market? The majority of Camden is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were flames shooting out of the top window - even if everything else maraculously (sp?) survived, smoke damage would have ruined everything - hope he was insured.
