babspanky Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I love driving through Camden, it's one of the better parts of London to drive around. Do you think so? I always get sick of the ****ers walking in the road, especially in the middle of the night. Never looking to see if traffic is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure something would go wrong and I wouldn't get it ... why am I such a pessimist ... cos' normally amazing things don't happen to me .... I don't win things .... Just need to print everything out and I'm sorted .... OK ... carry on ... That is brilliant news Laurel:mf_lustslow: Oh ok then ... if you insist - i'll go I have NO WILLPOWER !! Awww Liz, shame you can't make it - but at least your reason for not going was better than my 'month end' excuse ! Work - pfffffffft Ha, Rose - didn't know you had family in my neck of the woods So... I guess I'll join you mad lot and take my chance on getting a ticket. See you guys on Friday Excellent!

Laurel Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I will keep an eye on it .... and book it if I'm worried ... I'd rather have a coach back-up that I don't use ... then to not get there at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lillibet Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Well, who goes really to this gig?ITUNES gave free tickets to Mika's fans i hope, but MFCers are very few to have got a ticket... I am not decided after reading all this thread: i can't imagine loosing a day of work +money , and looking at audience coming in the venue... I love London and would really like to make a "Christmas Party" in July with all of you but...i am tired of this "game"with Mika's gigs, sorry, i go to bed , i am not very happy so i won't annoy you. VERY glad for those who won: fantastic!!!!!!!!!! Well, will decide Monday , but i am really sad and realize that it would be the first time i could travel for a gig without ticket: are we so crazy?

RAK1 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Thanks for the link SoSi:thumb_yello: But if it is just East Anglia and Stansted express it wouldn't affect East Coast main line would it? Can you call Stanstead, and see what they can tell you about alternative travel into London? Surely they'll have extra coaches running? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurel Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Booked coach as back up .... it's refundable so if I don't use it I can get my money back ....

Emerald Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I have a question: When does the gig start? And do you know when it'll be finished (approximatively)? Thanks ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurel Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I have a question: When does the gig start? And do you know when it'll be finished (approximatively)? Thanks ^^ I don't know ... doors open at 6.00pm .... I'm hoping for the latest 9.00pm - 10.30pm .... maybe earlier as doors are open earlier ... but that could be just because it takes them longer to let people in ... I think they check off the names etc .... sorry I can't help more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotdlp Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I have a question: When does the gig start? And do you know when it'll be finished (approximatively)? Thanks ^^ If it's like any other gig it will probably start around 8.30pm (assuming doors open at 7.30) and it'll finish before 11pm. Edit: Just saw Laurel's post of doors opening at 6pm.. Guess it'll start earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It thought it was early when I set V+ to record it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
