Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

Bill, You mean Soho where all the girls hang out and strip clubs

[quote=Bill-K;178362]I would love that, Tuttsi, thank you. There are some sights I haven't seen for ages, and it would do me good to see them again. While this lot are sniffing around the Westminster Gasworks, we could be tripping the dark fantastic along Wardour St !!!

LOL - The very place, Tuttsi. A bit more traditional and slightly upmarket from King's Cross, I believe (ahem - or so I'm told...) !!!

Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

I suggested those places earlier as I'd read about them in the papers lol, sounds like you certainly know your way round Bill.
Seriously I used to go shopping in the area and it was certainly an education.

For anyone who wants late night entertainment, if anyones interested in music, we could ask Ronnie Scotts if they'll let us have some free tickets, or if anyone wants more 'alternative' entertainment there's always G.A.Y. and Heaven, they are an excellent night out if you are broadminded.

Just memories of a previous life, Sapphire. I was a courier in Town, then worked for a film & video firm whose head office was in Soho Square. I used to visit the Marquee Club in my 'formative years,' but never went to Ronnie's. It would be great to go there !!!

Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

Did you also go to the Whisky o gogo in Wardour St?

I also have never been to Ronnie Scotts it used to be but don't know if it still is a famous Jazz Club.

No, Tuttsi - I missed out on that one. We lost Ronnie himself a while ago, but I believe the club lives on as the famous Jazz venue.

Indeed it does Bill - I've never been myself, but our son was there twice recently with uni friends and had a great time, although typical students they wouldn't pay the fancy prices for food but went for a kebab afterwards

Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

I've been to Ronnies a few times, I've seen the late great George Melly there also Cleo Laine and Johnny Dankworth.

Right, that does it. It's going down on my list of things I have to do before I'm 40.

(I've put doing them off for a further 20 years, too !!!)

Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

Yup I am only 21 so I have plenty of time to go to all these places

Re: Spring 2011 Meet London 2nd April

Yeah right you two and I'm still 21 too.

By the way I've just noticed that the 3rd April is Mothers day, doesn't bother me, but worth noting if anyone does the usual lunch thing etc.

Sorry, Sapphire. Credit where it's due. I've just realised why I made Tuttsi blush a little by inviting her to Soho - I got you two mixed up.
I guess I'm gonna be chased round the block by two seriously offended 21 year olds, now...!!!

Somebody pray for me.

You'd better get yourself in training then hun, I happen to know that Tutts is pretty nippy on her feet, and don't forget we'll have Enaid with us too, now thats three 21 year olds you'll have to contend with
