I am thinking of running a couple of comps - so if anyone wants to come in fancy dress (you can always change in the toilets) or have a best hat comp, please put your thinking hats on (excuse the pun!), and the best ones in those category will win a small prize! Also, if any wants to swap anything, i.e. cinema vouchers, please bring it along! Or if anyone is feeling generous, bring along an item for the lucky dip, something you got for free and don't want or can make use of, as someone on here may want or could make use of (Beate's idea)!

So to re-cap
1 Hat Comp
2 Fancy Dress Comp
3 Swap shop
4 Lucky dip

Thank you!

I had another idea: I can bring my vast collection of 3D glasses and put them in a huge container (others can add if they want) and a prize goes to the person who guesses correctly (or is nearest to) the number of glasses?
The only thing is I don't know what to do with the glasses afterwards, I don't fancy taking them all home again.

Thank you!
I have at least one film related item which someone else may like, but is not for me so I think a lucky dip is a great idea.

Just wondering, whereabouts in London we will be meeting? Sorry if this was listed in one of the earlier posts, but I don't remember reading it..
