BASH!
just to say that rakky and i have now got off our collective arses and put a date in the calendar...

date: sat 2 july
time: whenever, prob from about 6ish
pub: will be in central london with a big beer garden, we'll let everyone know a bit nearer the time
after-party: either onto a club or a party back at mine for those who have the stamina to keep going past last orders
accommodation: a few people will be able to crash at mine, plus there are also quite a few cheap (for london!) hotels around there, eg the novotel in hammersmith is about £110 a night i think.

finally... please sign up on the calendar, you know you want to, don't make me look as if i will be drinking by myself all night (again)...

ok, as you were!

It finishes at six in the morning
I am determined to last it until then, then go have college breakfast and possibly chuck myself off a bridge. I promise I'll try and turn up even if I'm massively drunk

Edit: also can I bag a space at yours? I can't promise I'd be up for clubbing, but I can stay away partying with no difficulty
