Artwork chosen will be for sale, and anyone submitting will be responsible for getting their work there and back. The Artshow and Vending has been confirmed and will take place in Kingly Court just off of Carnaby Street in the heart of the West End. The artshow opens Friday night, showing work from many Artists worldwide, Paintings, prints and carvings....

Ha ha - yeah, I actually might make this one! At the time of writing I've still got 24.5 days holiday left, so it's no problem. Last year, they all got accounted for super-fast, blowing many possibilities of fun out of the water. Hope you can make it - it'll be great to catch up!

T tikiracer Member UK Joined: Sep 09, 2005 Posts: 462	T tikiracer Posted posted on Thu, Feb 23, 2006 11:41 PM Awesome weekend. It's got all the food groups covered, cultural exchange, [mighty] fine art, powerful mixes, dance and friends. The king is on the most played list on the itunes in the studio, and I've heard he's even better live, so really looking forward to that. Mr Shag [to me], has done a sweet job on the event art. It's great to see a full-on UK tiki event, thanks to Cheekytiki to all the hard work. I'll be getting my tickets today.

TW Trader Woody Member Tiki Manor, Forest of Bowland,UK Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 2301	TW Trader Woody Posted posted on Fri, Mar 3, 2006 1:39 PM I've been trying to buy tickets for the past half hour and keep getting the message "Your payment session has expired. To complete this transaction, you will need to enter your information again." despite typing like a demon. Also, there doesn't seem to be the usual 'padlock' on the bottom of the browser indicating that the payment is secure.Any idea what's happening? Trader Woody EDIT - Can we pay via a normal Paypal account? Ie. your e-mail address? Cheers [ Edited by: Trader Woody 2006-03-03 13:43 ]

Friday night on Golden Coladas until 2:00am, wake up early afternoon, then out to watch England in the World Cup, drinking many pints of ale, then onto Trader Vics for Tiki bowls galore, wake up late, then onto Trailer Happiness to sample more rums. The only time I won't be drinking is in taxis and while asleep. My liver hurts already.... Trader Woody

I never thought that I'd curse the removal of the early 20th century British drinking laws, but those extra couple of hours are like a couple of baseball bats on the back of my kidneys. Friends up here have arranged a brewery visit on the Monday immediately afterwards. I can't wait to see the SLP again, though. I've yet to visit a place that exudes the pure fun & joy of Tiki in remotely the same way. Trader Woody

And I'm going to be a vendor! I hope everyone will stop by and say hello to the tiki yank. The last time I was in London I was strolling though Hyde park and just stumbled across the London Hilton and Trader Vic's. Nirvana! Except that when I tried to bring my British friends there for dinner that evening there was a freak power outage: elevators weren't running, half the hotel was dark and Trader Vic's was definitely down. Ouch! So I can't wait to get back and give it a go. And I can't wait to check out the other places, Trailer Happiness and London South Pacific. And that tropical London summer... See you there!

AtomicTonyTiki - thanks for the laughs and it was great to share dinner with you & the wahine at Trader Vic's. And to the many that made the weekend special - Mahalo! My favorite moments: The Hula Punk show at South London Pacific, The King Kukulele set at Trader Vic's & the Donn's Mai Tai at Trailer Happiness. My absolute favorite moment: Sitting outside Trailer Happiness with King K and lots of others laughing and sharing stories - I'll never forget it!
