| Filament Plug |
[23 Jan 2010|01:45pm] |
Popping up from under the pile of tax returns to post a wee public service announcement:
Do you like MEN?
Do you like them NAKED?
Do you want to read a magazine aimed at women who THINK?
BUY FILAMENT MAGAZINE
These women have created an awesome product for us BUT they need you to BUY THE MAGAZINE so they can stay in business, and keep producing wonderful magazines full of cock artful nude and semi-nude photographs of lovely men of all types. Plus thoughtful articles, features, artwork and smut fiction.
BUY IT! IT'S CHEAP. YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE.

| Departure tomorrow night! |
[07 Jan 2010|02:20pm] |
Seems like just last week I was DJing at the Elixir bar... oh yeah, I was.
Never mind, tomorrow night I'll be there again for the regular monthly installment of Departure, with DJs Steve K-Nine, Steve Slimelight and guests playing EBM, industrial, synthpop, and all things electronic. Open from 8pm to 1am with happy hour from 8-9 and food served until late. Free entry!
Elixir Bar is at 162 Eversholt Street in Mornington Crescent.

| Departure Tonight |
[11 Dec 2009|11:55am] |
Just a shameless plug for Departure tonight, which in addition to its usual irresistible attributes of great space (The Elixir Bar) in a great location (Mornington Crescent) and an excellent price (free!), has also been chosen as the designated 30th birthday celebration venue for our dear chum ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) andyravensable. Come out and help welcome him to the coolest decade of his life! Or just buy him a pint. :)

| Cuz I'm the tax man, yeah I'm the tax man. |
[09 Oct 2009|06:03pm] |
Just back from my latest HMRC workshop, this one on setting up a limited company.
The other attendees got an extra added bonus in my knowing the forms have all changed as of October 1st, and having said forms on me and being able to identify the relevant changes.
Half of them left with my contact details. Come on AAT and approve my licensing application, so I can get business cards.
On that note I pity you fools who have not signed contracts with Death and Taxes prior to my finding out what *other* accountants charge limited companies for a year-end package! Whoa Nelly! You early adopters are getting the deal of a lifetime based on what I learned today ;)
Particularly in the field of US tax returns. As I've spent my entire life doing them, I've added them to my menu of services but didn't really expect them to be a popular item. I've recently had an inquiry and based on the fees other accountants seem to be charging I really should close up shop on anything else! Good lord these guys are charing the hourly rates of Premiership footballers! Any ex-pats you know point them my way, because I'm cheap at a third the price. Seriously.
Right. Exercise, make food, paint nails, Departure. See some of you there.

| This Weekend |
[07 Oct 2009|03:24pm] |
... I hope to recover from the cold from hell in time to DJ at Departure, the best free electronic-based club/pub night in town. This month we have a guest DJ, the illustrious chris_damage, who may bust out some of his old Strength Through Joy classics, or may play something completely different. He's unpredictable that way.
Departure takes place Friday 9th October at the Elixir Bar, 162 Eversholt Street near Mornington Crescent/Euston. Free entry and open from 8pm to 1am, with pub prices and tasty bar food available.

| Halloween Weekend in London |
[06 Oct 2009|11:28am] |
Why head north? Halloween weekend is going to be awesome right here in London, with no interminable train rides, drafty cottages or awful fried breakfasts (unless you're into that kind of thing, of course)!
Friday 30th: Take your pick of Antichrist or Club Deviant, featuring the Scary Bitches live!
Saturday 31st: The mighty Project Pitchfork play the Islington Academy, with Deviant UK, The Mariana Hollow and Until I Wake, with free admission to Slimelight afterwards. (£14 adv)
Sunday 1st Nov: Come to Dingwalls for Faith and the Muse, Razor Blade Kisses and The Eternal Fall (all the way from Spain). (£12 adv)

| Blacklist this Friday |
[29 Sep 2009|01:55pm] |
This Friday night is Blacklist, the sister club to Departure featuring all manner of guitar-based gothy goodness. I'm not DJing but I will be there, and there will be a giveaway of CDs by The Eternal Fall as a blatant attempt to encourage people to buy tickets to Faith and the Muse on 1st November and come early enough to catch The Eternal Fall who are first up. :)
Blacklist takes place at The Elixir Bar, 162 Eversholt Street, Mornington Crescent, from 9pm to 1am with reduced admission to Inferno afterwards.

| Departure tomorrow night! |
[10 Sep 2009|10:29am] |
Just a reminder that tomorrow night is another instalment of the best free night in town, Departure at the Elixir Bar*. Featuring DJs Vicky Fenbane, Steve K-Nine, Steve Slimelight and me playing the best bleepy music from the 80s until present day, and cool videos to watch at the same time as played by the ingenious VJ Steve K-Nine.
The Elixir Bar is at 162 Eversholt Street, between Mornington Crescent and Euston. Departure is open from 8pm to 1am with drinks at bar prices and really quite tasty food served until 10.
*Blacklist, also at the Elixir Bar, is tied for first ;)
