The Fabulous Weekend Review 22nd -24th March
Hello there London City peeps, how you doing?
What's with this snow? It's like living in Narnia....
The Sun, anyone remember what that is? .... I've heard rumours, it's like a big ball of fire in the sky.... I wonder if we will ever get to see it ? .... Still all the more reason to wrap up warm, login to SL and join us in the number 1 location on the grid... LONDON CITY yay !!!
So, what can you expect from virtual London.... The Hustle and Bustle of a hugely successful sim...People from all over the globe...Top Events and The BEST Entertainment available anywhere... and all for free...London City IS Second Life.
Sit back and relax as I take you on a leisurely tour of last weekend in The top Destination.
What ever your taste or preference, London City ( just like RL London) truly has it all... running like a well oiled machine, that when you land here, you will understand why WE are top of the charts when it comes to fun and the best virtual experience you can have.
In London City we love nothing more than bringing you new and exciting venues, that cater for everyone, Sunday saw the opening of our new lesbian hang-out "Dykes on Bikes" here the ladies are invited to come along, with great music and chat, there is even a chance to earn while you enjoy yourself , by dancing on the tables...what a hoot.
With a diner feel, its a great place for like minded girls to get together and chill-out.
If you love your music, Bar Soho is the place to go, teamed with a great atmosphere, friendly people, and London's finest Dj's, its sure to tick all the boxes.
Like saucy Adult fun? .... no problem, get down The Crown, situated in Victoria, one of our adult regions, always busy with people looking for "no strings" action. Hosting some rather riske events daily, its a real giggle and a must see :).
Not your thing? never fear we have loads of places you can go...like Substation.... a place to wind down and relax, playing a mix of retro tunes, and fun events, found in Soho, just off the hub.
Or, how about Juiced, a chameleon club, where the décor changes daily for every event, always one to puss the boat out, the events are fun and totally different to anywhere else in Second Life... another 1st for London City . This week we celebrated the Spring Equinox, we also had the LCTV cameras in, for our strictly dancing night, plus an urban skateboard park, and a very relaxing Japanese Tai chi event.
or maybe you'd like to turn you hand to bingo, a pub quiz or two at The Worlds End pub, typical British Pub, a place to call your local, fun, friendly and totally mad, what more could need.
Not only ALL that, we host a LIVE event in every Saturday, in Regents Park.
Saturday saw Rod Stewart in concert, all concerts are totally free to attend, but make sure you arrive early as this event reaches capacity very quickly.
As it did on Saturday, Roderick David "Rod" Stewart, CBE (born 10 January 1945...born and raised in North London.
Rod has a distinctive raspy singing voice, which always woo's the ladies.
Selling over 100 million records worldwide, it makes him one of the best selling artists of all time.
So we were thrilled he joined us for a wild and fantastic show, we ran a best in animal print along side where a lucky resident had the chance to win a huge amount of linden dollars.
Looking hotter than ever in his signature leopard print tight trousers, Rod wiggled his way through all his top hits.
He sure knows how to move it, exciting all the ladies in the audience.
Many offers of meeting him later after the show were hurled around.
Singing a huge array of his hits, Rod took to the stage and entertained us for an hour and a half, everyone singing along to his hits like "Sailing", "Maggie May", "Do You Think I'm Sexy", "Your're In My Heart" and many, many more.
Everyone had a great time, and looking forward to next weeks concert, we have The Spice Girls here in Regents Park Easter Sunday, so be sure to join us....
That's all from me this week, it's been truly a fantabulous week here in London City, I hope to see you around for more fun and frolics xxx

The Fabulous Weekend Review 16th~18th March
Well hello London city ...or should I say Top o' the mornin to ya, in light of the celebrations that took place over the weekend ...yes that's right , we celebrated St Patrick's Day. Saint Patrick is celebrated in Ireland and the rest of the U.K, it's generally known that Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland and has been since around the 7th century.
17th March is the date St Patrick's day is celebrated and thought to be the anniversary of his death, so in our usual fashion, we bring Real life events into the virtual world, so everyone, no matter where they are from in the world, can join us and experience a Real London feel, with all venues and events joining forces for what can only be described as a tremendous weekend.... unparalleled ... You already know how busy London city is everyday of the week, but I can reveal this weekend, we broke our record of people attending the sim... even more than at New Year, that record was well and truly smashed ... almost 72 hours of full capacity WOW!!!
It just goes to show how popular and awesome London City truly is :)
This phenomenal weekend was sponsored by DX Exchange, the easiest way to buy in world currency, with Regional UK HQ in London City.
As usual, Regents park sprang into action on Saturday evening, the crowds arrived early which I highly recommend, as it fills very quickly with our wonderful residents all wanting a great evening out, and watching their favourite stars on stage Live in concert....As it was St Patrick's weekend who better than the Dubliners to celebrate...
The Dubliners are an Irish folk band, their career has spanned over 50 years and seen many changes in the line up. The band gained international success for their lively Irish songs.
The band were regulars on the folk scene in the 60's in both Ireland and London, and appeared on the iconic Top of the Pops in '67.
We love having these old boys perform in London City, always drawing a huge crowd singing all the songs we know and love "Black Velvet Band", "7 Drunken Nights" "drunken Sailor", "Wild Rover", "Molly Malone" and loads of others too many to mention.
The free Green Guinness was flowing, everyone dressed in Irish clobber...great "drinking " music, fun free jig dances we really did have a whale of a time the celebrations started earlier than usual due to the crowds arriving... and went on well into Sunday morning.... There was a "Best In" event where 1 lucky Resident won a huge amount of Lindens.
The following day we found some residents having a morning work-out...recovering from the night before ...
Early Sunday morning, we had a barrage of messages from Residents who couldn't get to the event in Regents park....Upset they missed the celebrations ... so what to do ??? Put it on again of course!! This time the Guys took to the Hub in Sim1... A few choice invites out and BANG the sim was at capacity again...people arriving in droves, in a party mood, ready to sing-a-long again .. twice the enjoyment ...
All over London City, the whole weekend was given to celebrating St Patrick's day...All venues participated...
Substation started us off, Coffee, Bailey and Katty invited people to come along to come dressed in green... always a hoot here.. fun chat and golden oldie tunes.
The crown
Saucy adult fun...like your SL to be no strings fun ... then the Crown is right up your street,
like minded adults great music...what more could you ask for :)
As usual Bailey and Fierce added extra fabulousness to Madame Lalas this weekend, tongue in cheek banter and the best in toe tapping tunes...all go into the mix to make this one of our most popular destinations...what do you mean you haven't been there yet ???... then you are simply missing out...
Juiced also joined in the celebrations, Saturday we found the Juiced team on a road-show in regents park, inviting the Victoria groups along to Soho, this is always a giggle, as we joke the sim 3ers show the sim 1ians how to party... we had so much fun Saturday...
Sunday we were back at Juiced, this time the club was transformed into an Irish hillside ( complete with sheep) where we ran a best in green event with upbeat Irish songs we always have the best time.
This week we also had one of Our most popular themes "Alice in Wonderland"
I'm always speechless at the time and effort people put into their costumes, and I think Alice in wonderland event shows this off to the max.
The Worlds End and Soho also ran awesome events with St Patrick's theme....all in all we had a fantastic time, and more awesome news,
Loki found photographic evidence that Spring is here ....at long last .....
Well, that's all from me this week, I just want to say a huge thank you to Everyone who took part ans came along to London City... from our fabulous staff to our awesome Residents you all play a part in making London City the TOP Destination in Second Life...FACT!!
Huge hugs to all xxx
