New Years Eve Party

 

You are invited to a night of Celebration in  London City, for the New Years Eve Party on Sunday.

DJ's Bailey and Torric, will take you through New Years Eve and into the New Year from 12pm SL Time (8pm UK).

Torric will be playing all the trashy songs you've ever heard at every New Years Eve party you ever went to as you were growing up, during the "Cheese and Wine" section.  You can collectively vote songs off, by pressing the thumb down button (or thumb up to save).

Madame Bailey will be here to save your sanity at 2pm SL (10pm UK), with proper party sounds taking us well into 2023 ans Big Ben Bongs at midnight UK time (4pm SL).

Hope you can join us!

Let there be light!

Today is the shortest day... but it is going to get brighter from tomorrow!

We can all enjoy some more daylight time starting this week, thanks to Civil Twilight.

Civil twilight is a scientific term, defined as “the period after sunset or before sunrise ending or beginning when the sun is about 6 degrees below the horizon and during which on clear days there is enough light for ordinary outdoor occupations.”

And from 23rd December, it starts getting lighter at night, by just a minute for the first week but up to 2 minutes a day in January. 

This may not sound much, but by the end of January sunset will be 5.23pm, a full 43 minutes more, and at 6.13pm in February.

Hang in there!

Get on with your work!

So this is Christmas, well almost.  Thursday should be the last working day we have to endure..

To help speed your day along, please follow the traditional Christmas timetable:

09.30 Starting time
09.55 Arrive for work
10.00 Have a coffee break
10.30 Coffee break time
11.00 Get ready for lunch
11.30 Go to lunch
12.30 Lunch time
13.30 Afternoon shift begins
14.00 Arrive back from lunch
14.30 Go home

See you all in London City later for a tipple, a natter and then a boogie.

Enjoy your day!

The Christmas Tree has arrived!

Thank you to the people of Norway for their gift of a beautiful Christmas Tree for London.   This tradition goes back to the end of World War II as the people of Norway express gratitude to the UK for assistance during the conflict.

Come and enjoy this beautiful Christmas Tree.

Our Cilla to play this Saturday

A Christmas Cillabration!

There were two main acts that dominated Britain in the 1960's.   One was the Beatles, the other was Cilla.

Whilst perhaps not quite as tuneful as Dusty or Sandy, Our Cilla had an appeal to those who were waiting for the next big thing to emerge from Liverpool and the Beatles fans catapulted her into super stardom.

Singing all her hits and some that weren't - Don't miss this most famous icon of the 1960s on Saturday in London City.  The party starts at 12pm SL (8pm UK) with the show an hour later at 1pm SL.
