**Crusoe** , they are still free. Just some of us LJ geeks pay money yearly ($25) for extra features. Most people have free LJs. I have some codes if you want to set up your own. Just let me know. ---

oooh, Twisty sent me a piccy! **AND** we’ve been chatting via email… Bet you’re all really jealous now! 😛 (Watch this space, you could all be witness to the beginning of a beautiful friendship) 😃 ---

Eh, he dumped me flat when I wouldn’t put out. Some lame excuse about us both being heterosexual, but I didn’t buy it. ---

Matt, if you can get someone to get you a LJ code, you can still set one up. I already gave my free code up to Ruadh. There’s a hell of a lot of us on. ---

Twisty – Anahita very kindly donated a code. I’m customising the layout as I type. ---

Oddly enough, hub sent it to me just a few moments before London Calling’s mention of Twisty and his er…um…trousers. Weird synchronicity. I will keep expecting to see Mr Bean motoring around in his little car in London. ---

_grins_ “Twisty’s Trousers”… dare I say it… Band name! I used to have a crush on Rowan Atkinson, in BlackAdder 3… _shudders_ [sub](I was young then, I have now seen the error of my ways, forgive me!)[/sub] ---

I’m coming, oh, yes I’m coming 😉 To the Londondope . . . I have to sort out the details still. Is anyone meeting tommorow anywhere? or just on Saturday at the clock? and then the pub? I’m confused can someone post an itinary, just to clarify things I think I have the general gist. I plan to arive by train late tommorow afternoon - I’ll post more when I have a timetable. woot ---

I’ll probalby be wearing a black leather trechcoat - unless it’s really good weather, I’ll try and find a decent photo. Also I’m posting from my new laptop, which I havn’t installed a spell check on yet, sorry. ---

Opps, did I speak out of turn ? No offence intended, just my rather sad 70’s-Sid James-nudge-nudge sense of humour raising it’s ugly…opps a daisy !.. Yep, be great to meet you too, **kabbes**. Rather depends on Matron and other variables, though, so I may have to take a ‘rain check’. Opps ! ---

woot woot woot Friday - No formal agenda, as far as I know… Saturday - 1pm under the clock at Waterloo 7:30pm at the Silver Cross Pub on Whitehall (no idea where the hell that is, though) I just bought a huge stash of chocolate which I’ll share with all of you on Saturday night!
