i stayed for two weeks in the Rosebery Halls for the LSE... can't remember what road it's on... think it's opposite a pub.. maybe a theatre... know it?
anyway we stayed there but during the day we's go up to this old church that's been converted into spaces for drama and stuff (which as it happens is where the Mighty Boosh rehearsed their most recent sreies! ) while we were there, the space downstairs was occupied by the BBCs Grumpy Old Women and i went to the loo at the same time as jenny eclair !
twas quite a marvy experience, but i was really ill most of the time and as i was only 14 i was SO homesick!

anyway you sound like you have your whole future planned out! wish i was that organised!
it would be soo cool if we were in the same classes!

No way! My future is not planned out/oranised, it's just mess put in a pile to save my self from the desperation my friends are facing. I just hope I make it to 20 then I really will have left education behind (not including uni).
You're really into the Mighty Boosh aren't you? That's so cool though, where is this church btw? so sad you got homesick and why were you ill?? that can't have helped at all!
In terms of celebrity hangouts I had a fun time last summer playing tennis with Judi Dench's grandson, though he's really stuck up -so much, it's funny I just couldn't stop laughing at him/ Mrs Dench didn't have the memory/grace to recognise my dad despite the several occasions where he helped her out during the times she's worked at TRH. It was interesting to tease her about this particular occasion.

ANYWAY They've turned Rosebery Town Hall (right next to Rosebery Halls) into the Urdang Academy (dance, drama, music). My parents got married there. I live right along the 38 route heading north from there. It's also the bus I used to get to work cos it takes you right to piccadilly.

BTW lucky/well done! you for being in NYT

btw don't forget myspace

i have added you, you need to accept!

anyway i WAS into the mighty boosh; it practically controlled my life for about 3 years. I met most of them, went to the live shows, bought all the DVDs which i watched constantly blah blah blah all that stuff and i was so excited about the new series that came out last year...
but it was AWFUL!!! i hated it and am really rather upset but i got over it and decided to be proud of the fact that i liked it before it was famous and (as my dad the ex-punk ALWAYS says) "i was there!" so yeh...

judi denches grandson eh? nice one, Jamie Theakston - that 'well known' 90s tv presenter lives in my village and i went to his wedding in the summer... but i think judi denches grandson it much better!!

anyway, i was ill for the two weeks before i left (so i had a whole month off school!) and i had some throat infection with just urgh and yuck, so i went there - half dead - and lost my voice completely! which is REALLY useful when you're meant to be acting and projecting. My illness decided to stick around too, so i nearly collapsed during the day a few times and i had to go home early on the lat day and miss the party... but still twas SO fun!

what's your facebook address?
