As it seems half of this board are coming to the UK for ATP, or other reasons, it may well be that a separate thread is needed, to stop the London Calling one getting swamped.
So, feel free to post adventures, experiences and questions here, whether they be about work, rest or play
Up to you now!

I can only dream...
Can you smoke in this thread?
Places to avoid:
SheBu Walkie
Camden on the weekends
Oxford Street
Tell us about your dreams, then we'll act them out for you and let you know how they go. :)
The UK?;)
Hey Camden has some cool pubs you can chill out in... plus I walked past Noel Fielding of the Mighty Boosh there a couple of months back.
But the crowds are shit. And they shut the tube station after 3!!
The UK is going great para... next?
So go during the week.
Same pubs; better vibe
Have people visited Brick Lane? Cool markets and yum curry.
I had the worst curry I've ever eaten at the Camden markets. There is an awesome second-hand LP store there though.
I think I'll go check out Brick Lane and further east this weekend.
There's some great bars and clubs out that way too...
Do yourselves a favour and take the 106 from Finsbury Park station to Manor Rd or take the 73 direct to Stoke Newington Church Street and take a leisurely stroll through Abney Park cemetry. My favourite place in London.
Best London live venues:
The Luminaire
Union Chapel
Worst London live venues:
The Mean Fiddler {aka LA 2}
Underworld
P74 - Abney Park is a well-known beat
;-)
You can also catch the train direct Liverpool Street to Stoke Newington
I love old cemeteries... spoooky. I'll have to check it out.

I know. When I first moved to London my flatmate said he saw Jarvis in Abney Park. He then very quickly said "He wasn't bumming or anything..."
You can get unwarranted attention wandering around on your own.
Your motives are easily confused by others.
God help you if you are dead!

SallySimpson is here!
What beer do people normally drink there?
Carlsberg is still 2pounds a pint?
Anyone going to this on Friday?
Hey expats!
I'm currently planning my first trip to Europe. Is Heathrow a complete drag to navigate? I can get an awesome fare to Stockholm with Malaysian Airlines, but it involves only a two-hour stopover at Heathrow, which doesn't seem like a terribly long time if I need to collect bags and check in again...
Depends what terminals cc
1-3 are in one place, 4 another and 5 fuurther away still
Bye bye SallySimpson
:(
Bye.

Hey coffee lovers,
[St Ali](http://stali.com.au/
) is opening on Clerkenwell Rd soon.
I bought a bootleg copy of the extremely rare (read completely unavailable) copy of The Futurist by Shellac from a record store in London.
I was also cold a lot of the time there, and the busses stunk most of them time.
That Inbetweeners thing would be rad though.
INNER CITY RIOT
Day Three
So strange
The whole of the east is being hit; basically any shops in poor areas are providing rich pickings
Central Hackney is being shuttered up right now even though it’s only mid afternoon
More trouble’s a brewin’
Take care, young man!
My friend in Bethnal Green said underage hoodies are everywhere.
I heard reference to ''Chavageddon'' this morning.
What we're all thinking
The media has now successfully created an environment of fear
Folks rush home in the evenings as though vampires will arrive at dusk
Well done you
Now we can approve water cannon, plastic bullets and maybe even the army on the streets
but where are the parents?
probably out at night working menial jobs.
Vegemite is 1/3 off at Sainsburys - only £1.32 for a 220g jar
That's waaaay cheaper than you can buy it in Oz
(AUD$2.10 for 220g? Not likely)
In other news, DC approved the use of water cannon today
Yay, water fight!!!!!
Vegemite cannon!
I've just moved to the UK, but I'm in nowheresville (the cotswolds). Is there a site similar to M+N that anyone knows of that will inform me of good gigs/bands/venues in Bristol or London?
Oh to live in a land of tolerance
