How has London Transport been voted best one out of all of them?

Posted by plum about 1 year ago
Last active about 1 year ago 37 responses

Wonders will never cease – apparently our huge, rickety and highly unreliable public transport system has been voted by ‘world travellers’ as the best in the world for the second year running, no less! I can’t imagine the sample was the best cross-section that could possibly have been achiev...

Mwah Mwah - continental greeting advice?

Posted by unknown about 1 year ago
Last active about 1 year ago 42 responses

I have made it a habit to completely muck up the continental greeting of the double cheek kiss. So, etiquette advice please! Should you just touch cheeks and not actually plant the smacker? Should you actually make a sound? (I always end up making some grotesque mwah type sound in a blind panic) Would I get away...

Does Anyone Fancy a Sing Along?

Posted by Babb about 1 year ago
Last active 2 months ago 47 responses

I love singing but I don’t want to join a choir and I’m not good enough to front a band, so I’m thinking you, me, guitars, singing, jamming, drinking. Any takers? We need at least one person that can play an instrument, or we’re doomed to fail.

The FCL mini meet-up, Earlsfield Chapter. Who's in?

It’s not a divisive thing. We’re not being cliquey or anything. It’s just that a few of us live out here in the south west and are toying with the idea of meeting in the, er, Leather Bottle, was it? later on this month, or perhaps next month. See? Even when there’s only a few of us we canR...

FCL Thorpe Park Trip

It suddently occured to me today that I’ve not been to a theme park for an absolute age – and given I used to live 20 minutes from Alton Towers three years ago, I’m missing my fix. Who would be up for this?

The fabulous indie/Britpop night that is Burn Soo Bright is one year old, and to celebrate we’re holding our birthday party on Friday September 7th! We usually have a theme, but this month we just want to play the very best indie and Britpop tunes, with a good amount of 60s and 80s and – as a tribute to ...

Please please please please please help my sanity and stop starting postings with the word “So”. I’m not one of those people who says that language can’t evolve, and I don’t have a problem with starting sentences with “but” or “and” or any other appropriate wo...

Conversation on tube cheers up dreary morning!

Posted by Twiglet about 1 year ago
Last active about 1 year ago 23 responses

I was on the tube this morning and I had one of those rare moments – shock horror I had a conversation with a total stranger – well, maybe not total as she may be a fellow FCLer who knows? – if you are on here “Hello there”. Anywho, it was really nice, made me smile and made what was a dreary morning turn i...

Question of the Day: is Johnny Vaughan right?

From last night’s londonpaper: ‘Being male, we are conscious that we are not living in great times. But 7/7 showed that greatness is living in Londoners. We live in petty, decadent times where we don’t know how lucky we are, but 7/7 brought it out. Dr Johnson once said, “There comes a time in every man’s life when...

The excitement of having confirmed tickets for the Secret Garden Party and The Camden Crawl has prompted me to ask what festivals, if any, you’re all doing this summer? WELL?

The next KCL do: where and when? And where can I buy decent socks?

Cubana was a great success, especially the bit afterwards when everyone decamped to the pub over the road. The smokers though it was the Best Pub Ever as the landlord allowed them to smoke within an enclosed area as defined by the appropriate legislation. So that’s THAT pub out, then. Where should we go in...

WIN a great summer read!

Posted 6 months ago 9 responses

Ah, summertime. Sunshine, booze and the beach. To celebrate the few hours of warm weather we have here in Britain, we’ve got THREE copies of a Jilly Cooper-style ‘bonkbuster’ book to give away. It’s called Vintage, by Olivia Darling, and is the perfect holiday read.

Access fault

OK – now I know what’s happening it’s being fixed. If you can resist the temptation to log out so you can mess with your fellow users anonymously that would be great. In the meantime I’ll be hiding all conversations that look dodgy. Obviously feel free to let me know if I’ve harshly judged any legitimate offerings ;)

Have a date tomorrow, meeting about 4pm in town, and it’s an internet job. He’s coming down from Birmingham and whilst we’ve chatted a fair bit by phone and text, I’m not entirely sure what he’s into – and I suspect that he’d just say that he’ll be happy with whatever...
