    So... the London papers are covered with crying people who've lost their bank jobs, it's all doom and gloom, and every other headline has the word 'freefall' in it when describing stocks. SO... I'm just passing on some of the free things suggested by the company I work for. Sorry if you're not in London, but keep in mind there's free stuff everywhere.

    Tonight:
    Radio One DJ Nihal presents the Notting Hill Arts Club's monthly session of modern Asian beats. Free before 8pm.

    Every Wednesday Morning:
    A range of part aerobic, part martial art classes before work on the south bank of the Thames. Free.

    Every Sunday Afternoon:
    A competitive yet friendly game of bike polo on your own bike. Free.

    26th-28th September:
    Three-day festival of drawing, classes, workshops and performances. All free.

    And we are giving away free tickets, artwork and classes here:

    Go forth... and spend little.

    I think you'll find that the first two aren't free - I couldn't possibly comment about the third...

    The cost of the third is relative to how attractive you are yourself, I would venture to say ;)

    Hang on,i wouldnt go to the southbank even if i was at worlds end.Ive never seen so many degenerates loiter there,underage drinking,drugs-the works.
    Notting Hill again is an area with a high crime rate,id end up being mugged 50 times and thats trying to leave ladbroke grove station.

    Oy, don't knock West London. Although to be fair, I'm not posh enough to be targeted by robbers, or if I was, they'd be sorely disappointed (me on the other hand... I'd get rid of a debit card for an empty account, an empty wallet and possibly a lot of old business cards if someone stole my bag in Notting Hill ;) )
