Pretty sure that the tube station near the last house I lived in before the one I am in now was closed due to rain once (it was Woodford on the Central line which is above ground. Not that that's really an excuse.

this is SO irrelevant to the thread but i tootally know what you mean! the eastern end of the central line is rubbish!
i got stuck at woodford for ages just last saturday, incidently.

& now to more relevant thingses....
what time would be the best for me to turn up at the world's end? i basically have nothing going on in the day, but i should be having a phone delivered as mine mysteriously vanished, so i may wait for that to turn up, as i am pathetically lost without a phone. (yes, pathetic, i know).

and what is everyone wearing?
i'm pretty sure this has been asked before but i can't seem to find the answers!
i'm wearing a customised white (night)dress over a tutu, with green tights & DMs. i was suppposed to make leafy-fairy-wings too, so i could be a garden-fairy, but i was also trying to prepare for an interview & ran out of time! i hope i don't let the side down...!

also, what is everyone doing after the gig?
are they moving on to anywhere else? i know lots of people are staying in camden. is anyone heading back to east london? anyone near wanstead perchance?(hahaha..). i need to be fairly functional on thursday, unfortunately.

could i take someone's number, just in case i get lost? i shouldn't; i live in london, but i can be a ditz!  :uglystupid2:

i can't wait for tomorrooow!

We're going to be so cold! Wrap up warm as you can, everyone xxx

But our costumes won't be as effective if we're wrapped in big coats... :( Goddamn snow.


Yeees, i was wondering about this?
My costume is a goddam dress.
I have nothing warm that will match.  :-\

Alas, I haven't got round to a costume  :'(

Still coming though. Pissing myself with the excitement now yay! Don't know what time we'll make it into Camden what with the trains n all, but maybe I'll pluck up the courage to come say hi to some of you cool folks if I make it to the World's End in time to recognise you heh.

Well, I'm the jigsaw lady  :) As well as my mask, I'm wearing a black top hat. I've made a large jigsaw piece out of cardboard, painted it red, and written 'AFP' on it in black calligraphy. This jigsaw piece is pinned to one side of my top hat, it looks awesome  :D I've also made a necklace and a bracelet out of black and red jigsaw pieces. I'll be wearing a white shirt with a black underbust corset and a black skirt and heels. Plus, I've got a wicker basket I painted black, which I'm holding my little bags of jigsaw pieces in, for giving out. Hope that'll be ok.

What about everyone else?

I'm so so so excited!

I have a black sequined top, black shorts, suspenders/stockings & black shoes with colourful laces. I might still exchange those for high heeled boots but I reckon I might stick with the inner-child sort of theme and just go for the black converse-like-but-cheaper-sneakers. I have effectively made my room look like a whole class of preschoolers descended upon it and there is glue and glitter everywhere - I do however now have a pretty glittery mask with feathers etc.

The whole costume/hypothermia question is indeed an essential one. Particularly as I won't get into london until 6.30ish so will have barely any time to potentially get changed. mrf. I'm guessing if the plan is to be at the world's end until 5ish, by then everyone will be at the venue?

Will do.  ;D My most easily identified feature would be my bright green Chucks, because other than that I look pretty much like your standard white girl. If you see me before I see you (some days I don't notice much of anything because I don't have enough coffee in me yet), you're welcome to glomp me. See, I live on the north side of the city, because that's where it's reasonably cheap to live and not quite the back of beyond (which is Arbury, I gather).

I actually live north, up the 'hill', I just run away into town most days.
I swear I did incidentally notice green cons on someone the other day. Could have been you!
Arbury is actually not that bad, I have a few friends living there and I prefer going to see them x1thousand than friends in Chesterton. Or, even worse, CAMBOURNE. Coffee is good; I spend half my life in the Cafe Nero on King's Parade. Before anyone goes all "omgcorporateshit" on my ass, there are reasons (i.e. the benefits of working friends.)

Leaving soon (even though I live in London and could easily give it a couple hours. ;D I have stuff I want to try and buy in Camden, though.)!
Hope to see you all there.
