    This does not belong here but I need a bit of a back up. I just come from what it would be called a night in hell. I live opposite the pub that got burn in Camden Town last night. I was not allowed to get into my flat and luckily a person who hardly knows me let me stay at her place but of course I could not sleep a wink. I was not there when it started, 7:20 pm. I arrived when everyone had already been evacuated, so the only people there were either observers, police, firemen or reporters. I am in my dear flat now but I truly feel vulnerable. I'm sorry if I am abusing the site but I do not know where else to go.I will deal with the anger that might cause later. I am grateful I'm alive and my flat is still standing.

    I am glad you are okay! I was thinking of you last night when I heard! I hope you can get some sleep now.

    Hey guys !
    I've just got my first free cinema ticket for the bank job !
    Just a little advice for a newbie - do I need to turn up really early ? Is it first come first served, or do they only allocate enough seats ?
    Oooh I'm really excited, this may become my new hobbie ! :D x

    They advise you to be there for 6 but it's rare that a venue is overbooked, often enough it is only half full. I am there as early as I can make it usually to get good seats though! Remember, you don't need the box office, just march straight to where the usher checks tickets and ask him for the screen number. Depending on how early you are you might have to wait until he lets you through.

  • Hi all,

    Now I know this is a discussion thread, not a free tickets thread, but someone recently posted a notice just like this over on the codes only thread and then got 3 days of abuse so....you lucky people can benefit!

    I have 2 x FREE tickets for new comedy Be Kind Rewind (cert 12A) at 18:00 for 18:30 on Wednesday 13th February 2008 at Cineworld Wandsworth, Southside Shopping Centre, SW18 4TF.

    However, something has come up and now I can't go so do any of you want these two tickets?


    The tickets will have to be collected from me in person as they are paper, not email tickets, so you need to be in London. First person to private message with their email address wins!

    Film info:
    In Be Kind Rewind Jerry (Jack Black) becomes magnetized while trying to sabotage the power plant that he believes is melting his brain and accidentally erases all the tapes in the old-fashioned video store where his best friend Mike (Mos Def) works.

    To keep the few customers happy, Jerry and Mike decide to remake one of the erased movies in Jerry’s junkyard. To their astonishment, their unique version of the movie is a hit. Mike, Jerry, and soon, friends from the neighbourhood are in full-time production, re-making movies, from Ghostbusters to King Kong, and in the end revitalize not only the business, but the entire community.

    I am getting better I have managed to talk to Beate a lot and I have got rid of the angst a lot. Everything was ok in the house just the flames were literlly across my flat. And I felt that I could lose everything in a minute.
    Thanks for your msg.

  • that must've been really really scary - i can imagine how devastated i would feel - but its good to see your local council is offering support. it's a sad sad thing that this happened - do you think it may have been arson?
