The ducks were possibly the same pair that dropped in at an earlier session\, checking ou t the pond. This time they also went for a stroll all around the lawn and a mongst the rest of us\, cool as cucumbers. Maybe they were looking for a p osh duck house.\n\nThe rest of us were : clearing some of the nettles by th e wildflower patch (but leaving the main nettles by the pond for insects)\; securing the flowering plants rampaging up the pergola (a gorgeous bright white rose\, the jasmine and the sweetpeas)\; mowing the lawn\; tidying up the veggie box and putting some of the plants on stakes\; checking the bird bath and refilling the feeders with fat balls for the parents busy feeding their fledglings\; tending the compost bins and generally tidying up and w eeding.\n\nThe lavender wasn't quite blooming yet so we'll pick some next t ime to dry in bunches for the pond (see the June info about this). There' s still the sparrow terrace to assemble if you like a bit of carpentry. Alt hough nesting is well underway now\, it'll still be useful as a roosting bo x after summer .\n\nIf you fancy this sort of thing and more\, come along i n July. \n\nPlease wear appropriate clothes and boots as well as socks to p rotect against nettle stings. \n\nDon't forget to be sunsmart! Slip slop s lap and wrap - a shirt\, some sunscreen\, a hat and sunglasses are always a good idea when you're out in the summer sun for a while. \n\nAll tools are provided\, like rakes and pruners and there's no pressure. Tasks are enti rely optional.\n\n\nThe garden is behind the Manor House Lodge in Finsbury Park\, which is on the left just inside the Manor House Gate to the park by Manor House Tube station on the Piccadilly line or you can go to Finsbury Park station and walk up through the park to the top right hand corner. Ple nty of buses stop nearby too. See TfL's journey planner for details : www.t fl.gov.uk/journeyplanner \n\n\nSee you there! Don't worry if you miss the RSVP "deadline".

DESCRIPTION:Mrs Coot's Quirky Outings\n\nReporting on his first visit to Ke nsal Green's annual Open Day\, Evening Standard columnist Tim Lott wrote: " There were tours of the cemetery\, a display of 20 hearses\, women with cof fin-shaped handbags\, penny-farthing bicycles\, a Black Sabbath tribute ban d and a stall selling honey and jam. It was like a cross between a funeral\ , a gig by the Cure and a village fete."\n\nThought this could also be an o pen day for the Coots to meet each other and have a nice picnic weather per mitting!!! Great day to bring a camera as many goths come out in full dress and they all look amazing!\n\nPrincipal events typically include:\n\nCemet ery tours with a general introduction to Kensal Green\nCatacomb tours of th e vaults beneath the Anglican Chapel \nSpecialist tours including The Great and the Good\, and Ne'er-Do-Wells \nFriends' bookstall at the Anglican Cha pel\nChildren's face painting and dress-up with costumes for Victorian Mute s and Mourners\nDisplay and motorcade of classic hearses from the Classic H earse Register\nDisplays and stalls from other cemetery societies\, local h istory groups and specialists in items and services of particular interest to the Friends of historical cemeteries\, including jewellery\, photographs \, and original and reproduction Victorian mourning dress\n\nANY COSTS\nTou r tickets are sold on the day at the booth on the porch of the Anglican Cha pel\; early booking is strongly advised as tours usually sell out by early afternoon. Cemetery tours cost three pounds per head\, start at the steps o f the Anglican Chapel\, and last about an hour\; catacomb tours cost two po unds per head\, start at the door of the Anglican Chapel\, and last about t hirty minutes. Tours keep to the main paths\, but sensible shoes -- and pro tection from sun or rain as the day demands -- are advisable\n\nLOGISTICS:\ n\nEnter the main gate of the cemetery (Harrow Rd) and walk to The Anglican Chapel which is in the centre. Just before this you will see grass! This w ould be a nice place to sit and have our picnic and be our base.. People ca n then wander around\, take the tours and see the amazing underground catac ombs as various points in the day.

Th e regatta lasts for 5 days (Wednesday to Sunday) over the first weekend in July. Races are head-to-head knock out competitions\, raced over a course o f 1 mile\, 550 yards (2\,112 m). The regatta regularly attracts internation al crews to race. The most prestigious event at the regatta is the Grand Ch allenge Cup for Men's Eights\, which has been awarded since the regatta was first staged in 1839. The regatta has been known as Henley Royal Regatta since 1851\, when Prince Albert became the first royal patron. Since his de ath\, every reigning monarch has agreed to be the patron.\n\nI'll be going to watch from the Regatta Enclosure\, which costs £20 to enter. There are bars and restaurants inside this enclosure as well as deckchair-style seati ng and a small grandstand. It is possible to watch the races from the towp ath but I've been informed that there isn't much space there & no official seating. I'm going to try to book us a table in the Luncheon Marquee for l unch as no food or drink is allowed to be brought in to the enclosure. Ther e are several choices of food including self-service options. \n\nThere is no dresscode for the Regatta Enclosure but I've heard that people join in with the atmosphere & generally dress up. I'll be wearing a dress (YES\, T HAT'S RIGHT\, I WILL BE WEARING A DRESS!!!)\n\nTickets - These cost £20 for the day's entrance into the Regatta Enclosure. Lunch not included in this price. In order to get a badge (ticket)\, you can either send a cheque fo r £20 together with the booking form to the Regatta in advance - download t he form from the website www.hrr.co.uk - or you can take a chance & buy you r ticket from the entrance to the enclosure on the day itself. \n\nAs I h ave already bought my tickets for this event\, my suggestion is that people RSVP on this site then buy their own tickets (badges) by post. Let me kno w as soon as possible that you're intending to come & we can arrange a meet -up place. \n\nIf you need any other details\, you can check out the webs ite\, or give me a call - 07803 031927.\n\nReading - United Kingdom\n\nSatu rday\, July 4 at 12:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/ event/6/9/e/0/event_9387104.jpeg\n\nAttending: 5\n\nDetails: http://www.mee tup.com/purelysocial/calendar/10747273/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090629T181452Z UID:event_10747273@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090627T153135Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090704T110000Z DTEND:20090704T130000Z GEO:51.45;-0.98 URL:http://www.meetup.com/purelysocial/calendar/10747273/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:The London Social Badminton Meet Up DESCRIPTION:The London Social Badminton Meet Up\n\n\nPLEASE NOTE: WE ARE BA CK TO SOUTH BANK UNIVERSITY'S SPORTS HALL\n\nWe are open to players at all levels\, beginner\, intermediate\, advanced\, singles\, doubles\, play for fun\, or have a friendly match. \n\nCost: \n£5.50 per person for 2 hours (D oubles) - includes shuttlecocks\n\nPlease note that: \n If you have RSVPe d Yes\, but later realise you can't make it\, please show consideration to your fellow members and change your RSVP as soon as possible.\nWhen you sig n up for 'Yes'\, you should assume to pay for 2 hours - this is so that oth ers won't have to pay the extra cost of you leaving early\, and vice versa. .. \nWhether you are playing single or double can depend on the number of p eople turn up on the day\n\n\n\nDirections:\n Nearest tube station: Elephan t & Castle (3 mins walk) or Waterloo (15 mins walk) See map link here http: //www.lsbu.ac.uk/sports/about/map.shtml\nThe clearest indication of the Spo rts Centre is a RAMP leading to the entrance of the building\, next to a 3 story reddish\, brown building (South Bank Technopark).\nThe Elephant & Cas tle station has a few exits - use LONDON SOUTH BANK UNIVERSITY EXIT (OR SOU THBACK TECHNOPARK)\, otherwise you could end up on the otherside of the big round about!\nWhen coming in\, just tell security that you are here for ba dminton.\n\n\n\nSo come along - keep fit\, improve your badminton skills\, meet new friends and have lots of fun!\nIf you have any questions\, please feel free to call me on 07 785 260 705.\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\nSatur day\, July 4 at 12:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/e vent/9/c/8/5/event_2980069.jpeg\n\nAttending: 21\n\nFee: Event fee: GBP 5.5 0 for 2 hours\n\nDetails: http://badminton.meetup.com/60/calendar/10782330/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090701T215842Z UID:event_10782330@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090701T215723Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090704T110000Z DTEND:20090704T130000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 LOCATION:Sport Centre - London South Bank University\, 103 Borough Road\, SE1 0AA - London - United Kingdom URL:http://badminton.meetup.com/60/calendar/10782330/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:PICNIC IN THE PARK DESCRIPTION:Encounters\n\nPLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FOOD TO THE DAY\nGAMES WILL BE ORGANISED ON THE DAY SUCH AS ROUNDERS. \n\nPLEASE NOTE A BACK UP PLAN H AS BEEN ARRANGED FOR http://www.namcoexperience.com/countyhall/address.php IN WATERLOO IF IT RAINS ON THE DAY!!!!!\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\nSatur day\, July 4 at 1:00 PM\n\nAttending: 7\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/E ncounters/calendar/10512262/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090623T183440Z UID:event_10512262@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090528T092313Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090704T120000Z DTEND:20090704T140000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 LOCATION:Hampstead Heath - Hampstead Heath - London - United Kingdom URL:http://www.meetup.com/Encounters/calendar/10512262/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Hidden Treasures of the Mary Rose Exhibition DESCRIPTION:London Cultureseekers Meetup Group\n\nFor the first time outsid e of Portsmouth\, artefacts from Henry VIII's flagship\, The Mary Rose are going to be on display at the Whitgift Conference centre in Croydon.\n\nThe Mary Rose was an English Tudor carrack warship.

It is smooth & sensual - a dance of the heart!\nIt is not difficult! If you can walk\, you can tango!\n\nNo need to bring a partner. We will rotate pa rtners.\n\nSat 4th July\, Beginners 4:30 – 5:45pm\; Improvers 5:45 – 7:30pm \n\nBeginners £3 per session\nImprovers £4 per session\nImprovers are encou raged to attend the beginners’ sessions for no extra charge\n\nI am also av ailable for private lessons at £15 per hour (excluding hire of space if nec essary). For a private lesson at Chisenhale during the hour before the begi nners' class\, I will charge only £10 (+ £8 for the space)\n\n\n\nWHERE\n\n PURPLE DOOR - not black door\nChisenhale Dance Space\n64-84 Chisenhale Road \nLondon E3 5QZ\n\nTap water and toilet facilities are available.\n\n\nSHOE S\n\nSpecialist shoes are not required. The basic requirement is that the s hoes should allow you to spin (twist) on the ball of your foot. Leather\, s uede or smooth plastic soles will be ideal. Avoid shoes that will grip the floor\, such as rubber soles or trainers.\n\nTIP - Duck Tape (Duct Tape) ca n temporarily convert unsuitable shoes. Just stick strips of it to the sole s. Can be bought from DIY stores.\n\n\nGETTING THERE\n\nNearest Underground Station is Mile End (Central\, District and Hammersmith & City Line)\, Zon e 2\nJourney time from Central London (Holborn) to Mile End is only 12 minu tes.\n\nThe studio is about 15 mins walk from Mile End. There are regular b uses along Grove Road in that direction to St Barnabas Church\, junction of Roman Road / Grove Road from where it is only a few minutes walk.\n\nBUSES FROM MILE END (Stop G)\nNo 277 going to Highbury Corner\nNo 425 going to K enninghall Road\nNo 339 going to Fish Island / Wick Lane\n\nThe Transport f or London (TFL) website is very good to find the best travel option.\n\nI w ill be travelling by car and can offer up to 4 people lifts. Pick up from & drop back to Mile End by prior arrangement. If anyone else is willing to o ffer lifts\, please let me know.\n\nParking - there are restrictions until 5:30pm\, however some spaces in adjoining roads have free parking for 2 hou rs\, so effectively free after 3:30pm\n\n\nABOUT ME AND WHY I WANT TO TEACH TANGO\n\nThere are many teachers of Tango in London who are great dancers but poor teachers. In my opinion the basics are often not taught very well. I regularly meet people who have been learning with well known teachers f or many months who still don't have a good grasp of the basics. I am hoping to help people in this respect so that more will feel the essence of tango and not give up with frustration. The plan is to get people as quickly as possible to dance socially - not just attend classes. In my experience\, go od dancers became good dancers by dancing regularly\, not just attending cl asses.\n\nI have been dancing Argentine Tango for over 4 years. Over that t ime I have studied with a great many teachers. The list includes: Eric Jeur rissen\, Pablo Pugliese\, Esther & Mingo Pugliese\, Pablo Veron\, Gato Vald ez & Andrea Monti\, Pastor Jurado\, Homer & Christina Ladas\, Adrian & Aman da Costa\, Veronique Bouscasse\, Pablo Nievas & Valeria Zunnino\, Santiago y Sandra Monticelli\, Joaquin Amenabar and some local teachers.\n\nI am a r egular at the London milongas (dance nights).\n\n\nMY APPROACH\n\nLearn the basics well - a good foundation will help you make quick progress later\n \nTechnique - without good technique your partners will not enjoy yo ur dance!\n \nConnection - the secret of social dancing most teacher s don't teach!\n \nMusicality - learn to dance to the music! - tang o\, milonga and vals \n \n\nI believe there is a good analogy between learning tango and learning a language.\n\nLanguage of speech -----> Language of Tango\n \nsimple sounds - phonemes -----> basic m oves e.g. forward step\, side step\n \nwords -----> concepts - self contained blocks of movements e.g. ocho\, giro\n \nmeaningful senten ces -----> improvised sequences to the music\n\n\n\nHYGIENE\n\nPlease take care with person hygiene issues such as body odour & bad breath! Should be obvious to most\, but needs to be said.\n\n\n\nAJ\n07984 023779\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\nSaturday\, July 4 at 4:30 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.me etupstatic.com/photos/event/d/0/c/7/event_6893447.jpeg\n\nAttending: 12\n\n Details: http://donatelloclub.co.uk/calendar/10759091/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090629T132056Z UID:event_10759091@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090629T132056Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090704T153000Z DTEND:20090704T173000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 LOCATION:Chisenhale Dance Space - 64-84 Chisenhale Road\, E3 5QZ - London - United Kingdom URL:http://donatelloclub.co.uk/calendar/10759091/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:MIXED SET: POSH 4th JULY BBQ AT MY MEMBERS ONLY TENNIS CLUB DESCRIPTION:Food and Drink Tastings - to learn and to mingle!\n\nTHIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT\n\nAs you know\, the 4th of July is the day that American's ce lebrate their independence from the Brits!

In deali ng and adapting with all these changes in our times\, we need to understand what balanced female-receptive energy is all about\, as this is the energy which will be carrying us in the new age of Aquarius.\n\nThe theme of this dance workshop applies to both men & women so I hope all the men out there are just as interested to understand and re-define their relationship with feminine energy as women are. We all have a feminine side and it is import ant that we can connect with\, understand and bond the connection between p olar energies where opposites attract. It is also about balancing the male- female polarities. \n\nThrough Shakti dance we will link physical movement and feminine flowing yoga to our relationship with feminine energy\, dancin g and enhancing our understanding of the Universal flow and intuitive/recep tive energy of the feminine archetype. Through this sacred dance we will be honoring female energy\, and in so doing discovering the power of woman-Sh akti\, which will balance and empower the the collective consciousness!\n\n By bringing the feminine energy into balance we automatically balance mascu line energy.\n\nWe are now moving into the Age of Aquarius\; Aquarius is kn own as the Water-Bearer\; this figure symbolizes balanced male/female energ y – and is our Holy Grail. We connect most strongly to female energy throug h the elements of Earth\, Water and Ether. \nIt will be a beautiful\, gentl e dance through all elements embodying our feminine polarity.\n\nThe finer qualities of woman need to be striven for in both men and women so that uni ty of Spirit can be achieved. The Aquarian Spirit is about collaboration wi thout control\, and co-operation without competition. Through understanding balanced female energy we come to understand this gentle\, flowing energy as one without games or control. The highest ideal of both male and female is Unity\, and freeness of love without jealousy. \n\nAll states of balance d energy are a beautiful\, joy-filled experience...whichever form it takes. However\, the main focus of this workshop will be balancing the polarities and connecting with our feminine energy.\n\nIn so doing\, we re-define way s which honour and empower our inner Shakti.\nCome along and dance the danc e of the sacred feminine with Maha Shakti.\nYou will feel so much more beau ty\, grace and harmony in your life as a result. \n\nBeginners welcome\, no dance/yoga experience\, mats provided. \nBring clothes you can stretch and move in\, a relaxation blanket/shawl & drinking water\n\nLondon - United K ingdom\n\nSaturday\, July 4 at 7:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos1.meetupstati c.com/photos/event/8/1/d/e/event_6933246.jpeg\n\nAttending: 16\n\nFee: Pric e: GBP 12.00 per person\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/Shakti-Dance/cale ndar/10402122/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090703T140638Z UID:event_10402122@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090513T150510Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090704T180000Z DTEND:20090704T200000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 URL:http://www.meetup.com/Shakti-Dance/calendar/10402122/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:French Cinema DESCRIPTION:The London French Language Meetup Group\n\nWe will go and see a film in the cinema on this day or evening.\n\nDetails about which film\, l ocation and time to follow soon.\n\nBenoit will be hosting this event.\n\n\ n--------------- UPDATE ------------------\n\nHello All\,\n\nFor this one\, we will operate in a slightly different way: we will see the movie AFTER h aving met in a pub!

Yeaaa!!! DESCRIPTION:London English-Portuguese Language exchange Meetup Group\n\nI t hought this might be a fun weekend activity for the group. We can go bowlin g first\, and then in the same shopping centre on the ground floor\, there is a Latin club\, La Bodeguita\, where we can have drinks and some snacks\, and at night\, 11pm\, the Salsa live entertainment and dancing begin. \n\n Come on let's have fun and laugh at each others terrible bowling. The perso n with the lowest score has to buy everyone drinks. Just joking . \n\nThe E lephant and Castle shopping centre is right above the Elephant &\; Castl e tube station (last stop on the Bakerloo line).\n\nI chose this location b ecause although it is not as nice as some of the central London bowling ven ues\, it is a lot cheaper and has more bowling lanes. The cost for 2 games is £9.00\, and includes the shoe rental.\n\nPlease indicate if you will be available so I can reserve the bowling lanes. And please be punctual\, as w e cant start till everyone is present.\n\nYou can reach me at 07519 036 935 on the day if you need to.\n\n\nPortuguês (...ou pelo menos\, a minha tent ativa )\nOlá pessoal\,\nEu acho que isto será uma noitada divertida para o grupo.

At the age of eighteen he decided to move to Tehran to go to university and continue his professional music career in the capit al. When in Tehran\, Malik began training as a classical singer and he also got the opportunity to meet and study with Almas Goliov\, the Master Nagar a player from Baku. \n\nThis encounter had a huge impact on Malik’s musical development and his talents blossomed resulting in him achieving first pla ce in the ‘Sunrise’ national music festival in Tehran for three consecutive years. Despite having studied to be a Chemical Engineer\, he found his pas sion lay in his music and inspired by the mix of cultures in the multi-ethn ic capital\, Malik started to play the Persian Tombak\, the Kurdish Daf and the Arabic Darbuka as well as his first instrument the Nagara. \n\nHe qui ckly reached to a high standard and began teaching in the top music schools in Tehran\, started playing for national TV and radio studios\, collaborat ing with dancers and performing in various concerts and festivals throughou t the country and worldwide. Malik’s desire to experience different culture s and create unique fusions inspired him to leave Iran and come to the UK\, where he has been able to develop his style further through working with m usicians from all over the world\, thereby deepening his knowledge of Weste rn\, Latin and African rhythms. \n\nThrough an exploration of different eth nic rhythms and fusion music Malik has created a unique personal style thro ugh which he hopes to reflect unity in diversity. \n\n\nIf you have any que stions please call Joanne on 07811 399 235\n-------------------\n\nCome & m ake a big noise with us!

DESCRIPTION:South West Londoners' Social Group\n\nTo join in with the Wimbl edon spirit I have organised a meet up in the heart of Wimbledon village. T he Common Room is a very popular pub/bar with an outdoor terrace. They will be showing the tennis on 5 plasma screens in the pub and it has proved in the past to be very popular. The atmosphere will hopefully be electric cons idering that it is only 1/4 mile from Centre Court. Please ensure that you get here for midday as the final starts at 2pm. I will hold as many sitting spaces as I can as I am unable to book a table as they do not take reserva tions during the Wimbledon fortnight. \n\nThe pub serves some great food fo r those of you that want a bite to eat! Please check out the website for m ore details. You can get to Wimbledon Village from Wimbledon Overground sta tion by bus. There are plenty running but may be quite busy on the day so i f it is good weather a walk up the hill may be quicker! \n\nhttp://www.comm onroombar.co.uk/\n\n\nHope to see you there!\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\n Sunday\, July 5 at 12:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photo s/event/9/7/6/d/event_9338765.jpeg\n\nAttending: 4\n\nDetails: http://www.m eetup.com/South-West-Londoners-Social-Group/calendar/10754251/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090628T200944Z UID:event_10754251@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090628T200415Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090705T110000Z DTEND:20090705T130000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 LOCATION:The Common Room Bar - 18 High Street \, Wimbledon Village - London - United Kingdom URL:http://www.meetup.com/South-West-Londoners-Social-Group/calendar/107542 51/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:The London Dungeons & Dragons Meetup DESCRIPTION:The London Dungeons & Dragons Meetup Group\n\nWe're meeting eve ry Sunday from 12:30 to 18:00.\n\nSmoke-free private room.\n\nLondon - Unit ed Kingdom\n\nSunday\, July 5 at 12:30 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos1.meetupst atic.com/photos/event/6/9/7/9/event_687001.jpeg\n\nAttending: 6\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/London-DnD/calendar/10646115/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090613T230916Z UID:event_10646115@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090613T230916Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090705T113000Z DTEND:20090705T133000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 LOCATION:The Ship\, Borough - 68 Borough Rd\, Southwark\, London\, SE1 1DX\ , http://tinyurl.com/ship-pub - London - United Kingdom URL:http://www.meetup.com/London-DnD/calendar/10646115/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Guided Astral Projection Meditation and Picnic Meetup DESCRIPTION:Astral Projection Forum\n\nHi All\n\nThis unmissable meetup eve nt is the perfect opportunity to meet new\, like minded friends\, while lea rning how to astral project in a safe\, supportive group environment.\n\nAf ter meeting at Hampstead underground station at 12.30 in the afternoon\, we 'll make the short walk down to Hampstead Heath\, for a group picnic and gu ided astral projection meditation amongst the beautiful surroundings of Lon don's largest ancient parkland.\n\nBelow is a list of essentials to bring w ith you on the day:\n\n- Picnic blanket\n- Lunch\n- Eye mask\n\nAlthough th is is a free meetup event\, we need to keep the total number of attendees b elow 30\, due to the nature of guided meditation\, so don't miss out\, RSVP today...\n\nHappiness\n\nTodd\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\nSunday\, July 5 at 12:30 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos4.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/d/d/c/ f/event_9116783.jpeg\n\nAttending: 13\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/Ast ral-Projection-Forum/calendar/10716222/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090703T121351Z UID:event_10716222@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090623T154425Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090705T113000Z DTEND:20090705T133000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 URL:http://www.meetup.com/Astral-Projection-Forum/calendar/10716222/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:"I am just not that into me" - SelfLove Consciousness - Sunday the 5th July 1PM DESCRIPTION:Family Constellations\, Career Constellations Meetup Group\n\nN ote: The location for this event is NO longer PortoBello Road!

The simpler the clothing the better. A T-shirt and a pair of tracksuit b ottoms or yoga trousers is good. Jeans will restrict your movement and may become abrasive.

We chant 'Ong Namo Guru Dev Na mo' meaning 'I bow to the infinite wisdom within myself'. Our practice clo ses with the mantra 'Sat Nam' meaning 'I am the truth'. The mantras are NOT religious and it is not necessary to know their meanings.\n\nPlease let th e instructor know if you suffer from any chronic health condition which cou ld be exacerbated by physical exercise. particularly –\n\nhead or spinal in jury\,\nheart condition or high blood pressure\,\ncataracts or other intra- ocular pressure\nbreathing difficulty\, diabetes or epilepsy.\nRecent or ma jor surgery.\nIf you are over three months pregnant please contact the inst ructor to discuss the suitability of the class. Yoga is extremely beneficia l during pregnancy\, but you may be better advised to find a specialist pre -natal teacher.\n\nAdvice on Practice\nKundalini Yoga is a complete system of development that will systematically build the strength of muscles\, the nervous system and internal organs. You may find the first month challengi ng\, there may be some exercise that you cannot do\, but the synergistic ef fect of exercises within a Kriya will enable rapid development. Every class will contain a spectrum of exercises\, some will be more physically demand ing than others. Do what feels comfortable\, don’t force your body into pos itions it doesn’t want to do. Take care when doing any exercise involving t he joints particularly the neck and the knees\, if you know you have a prob lem with particular joints please talk to the instructor.\n\nYoga teachings tend to assume that the practitioner has the use of two arms and two legs. If this isn’t you\, please talk to the instructor. The body is a useful le ver but the goal of yoga is beyond the body.\n\nIf all of this seems too mu ch to learn\, just remember this: Kundalini Yoga is very simple.\n\nListen to your intuition\nRelax into the exercises\nEnjoy the process!\n\n\nLondon - United Kingdom\n\nSunday\, July 5 at 2:00 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.me etupstatic.com/photos/event/d/6/4/1/event_7974849.jpeg\n\nFee: Price: GBP 1 0.00 per person\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/kundalini/calendar/105350 42/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090531T140435Z UID:event_10535042@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090531T140435Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090705T130000Z DTEND:20090705T150000Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 URL:http://www.meetup.com/kundalini/calendar/10535042/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:The London Dachshund July Meetup DESCRIPTION:The London Dachshund Meetup Group\n\nOpportunity for Dachshund owners and their pets to meet up and have dogs play\, as well as trade tips and socialize!\n\nWe are back to our warm weather location now!!

Our human duty is to keep our animal in check and even teach it to perform tasks alien to its bestiality.” This enigmatic film\, the th ird from Thai art house director Apichatpong Weerasthakul and winner of the 2004 Prix du Jury at Cannes\, is a work of haunting beauty in two congruen t parts: an idyllic romance between a young soldier and a country boy\, fol lowed by a hallucinatory night-time chase through a dark forest. This is a strikingly original film that rewards patience with a magnificent meditatio n on memory\, suffering\, and human desire. I'll bet the Wimbledon men's fi nal\, around the same time\, can't match that. Advance booking is a good id ea.\n\n.\n\n“Garlanded with awards\, Apichatpong’s visionary film exists in dual realms\, exploring connected themes of love and desire in a radically different way. A fractured love story is interrupted by a feverish night-t ime odyssey into the heart of the jungle where shape-shifting spirits and t igers abound. The conscious and the subconscious\, the modern and the ancie nt\, reality and myth\; all become magically entwined in this hypnotic\, my sterious drama.”—Second Run\n\n“This is a work of outstanding originality a nd power that comes nearer to the condition of the quest and the dream-stat e than any film in recent years. It requires a relaxed and open mind to wat ch it\, be consumed by it\, and enjoy its great and fearful symmetry.”—Roge r Clarke\, Sight and Sound\n\n“Like all the great visionaries\, Mr. Weerase thakul guides his audience toward the infinite\, indicating a territory bey ond words\, sounds\, or images. "Tropical Malady" expands and invigorates t he cinema.”—Nathan Lee\, New York Sun\n\n.\n\nInterview in Reverse Shot:\n\ nIt seems like you’re very interested in mythmaking and fairy tales. What a re you trying to update in the idea of the fairy tale?\n\nApichatpong: It’s something that reminds me of my childhood. Something uncomplicated. When I shoot the location of the jungle\, the location speaks something of an unc omplicated life\, because when we’re in the jungle we realize how dependent we are on technology and what we use when we’re in the city. So for me tha t space reminds us of our ancient times\, of living in caves\, and not need ing many things to survive. So it’s the idea of this contrast between the c ity and the jungle\, and darkness and light\, and happiness and suffering. And when applying the myth and storytelling\, you need both sides. Because one side is uncomplicated\, like for the kids\, and another side is the sid e that is quite dark\, I’m interested in the existence of two different sid es in everything\, the real versus the fictional.\n\nLondon SW1Y 5AH - Unit ed Kingdom\n\nSunday\, July 5 at 2:15 PM\n\nPhoto: http://photos3.meetupsta tic.com/photos/event/a/2/b/0/event_3221648.jpeg\n\nAttending: 5\n\nDetails: http://www.meetup.com/arthouse-london/calendar/10737935/ LAST-MODIFIED:20090628T210529Z UID:event_10737935@meetup.com CLASS:PUBLIC CREATED:20090626T004202Z DTSTAMP:20090704T084727Z DTSTART:20090705T131500Z DTEND:20090705T151500Z GEO:51.52;-0.1 URL:http://www.meetup.com/arthouse-london/calendar/10737935/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:LondonAmigo July Meetup DESCRIPTION:LondonAmigo\n\nTEMPLE PIER\, NOT EMBANKMENT PIER\n\n Join us Su nday the 5th of July for the next LondonAmigo meet and greet. \n\nWe will have a BBQ again\, hopefully with a bit more variety in food (especially f or you vegetarians). \n\nSo come and meet other people that have arrived/li ved in London from different parts of the world and whilst you are there\, meet the London Amigo team\, have a drink and eat some great food.
