    The bars and foody places around there were packed when I was up in June, ended up in a nice pub in Villiers Street...wanted to go to the cellar wartime one but it was heaving. I forget just how many people are still out and about on a weekday night up there.

    Get to 8pm round here and it's dead.


    Ohhh fat families just starting so I'm off to gloat that I'm not quite that bad..nighty night all

    My neighbours upstairs seem to be having an argument whilst stamping about and moving furniture. Maybe they're arguing about where the furniture should go?

    I would relist them Claire, esp with so many watchers, did you have them ending at a good time for last minute bidders?
