Who can come?

Absolutely anyone. Young'uns, Old'uns anyone at all. Just as long as you bring a pillow.

Where is it?

The pillow fight itself will take place in Albert Square, opposite the town hall most probably, but be sure to check on the website below the night of the 22nd.

How can I get there?

Get the metro to St Peter's Square and then look for the trail of pillows. We'll put up a map.

When is it?

Saturday the 23rd of December 2006.

What time does it start at?

2pm exactly, so get there for around 10 minutes earlier.

What is it for?

It's a task from a list of 101 tasks to be completed, you can find out more about that by going to the Life List's profile (MySpace). But that's not really important, it's mainly for fun. It's free as well, incase your wondering, and it's not some stupid viral campaign for a new company product either. I promise.

Will I be the only one there?

Of course not. At the very least there will be a minimum of 100 people but most probably many, many more. If you're still nervous about coming on your own then come with some friends.

What if I have no friends?

You can come with me.

Who will be there?

Everyone who's anyone. Were hoping for between 500-1000 people to turn up so make sure you tell everyone you know about it. The more people there the more fun it will be. We'll also try and get some television crews down to record the event.

What about the christmas market there you goon?

It leaves on the 20th of December, if theres any other kind of problem meaning we can't do it there or if it rains, we've got another few locations lined up in reserve. If this happens still meet at Albert Square and details will be given out.

Do I need to bring my own pillow?

Unfortunately, yes.

What else do I need?

Nothing really, maybe a bag to hold the pillow in before hand.

So can I start pillow fighting as soon as I get there?

No, please don't get out your pillows or even acknowledge the fact that you have a pillow before the signal is sounded at 2pm exactly.

What will this signal be?

A horn.

Really?

No. Probably a whistle or something.

How many people can I bring down?

As many as possible. If you want to give our flyers about it get in contact and we'll get some to you.

When will it end?

Such events in other cities have been known to go on for hours...

Are there any rules?

Yes, four:
1)No fighting before the 2pm signal.
2)Don't put anything hard in your pillow.
3)Only hit other people carrying pillows.
4)Tell everyone about it.

Can I come in fancy dress?

Yes.

Will I be the only one in fancy dress?

Yes.

It's the day before Christmas Eve.

It is.
Any other questions can be asked through myspace. Please give us a line if your planning to come, just to get some idea of the numbers who will be there.
Thanks.

Tell everyone you know!
