Anyone know what time it kicks off ? Last year we got there a bit early before the free shuttle bus from outside the tube station started running

Microsoft Outlook calendar has this event as June 13 2009. Wikiipedia has it June 7.

Morden!!! Why?

Today has been seriously cool in neigbouring Wimbledon. We scraped 60F. Forecast for tomorrow is no better & Sunday even colder.

A bit of rain this morning but my husband and I will still be there - for a while at least. If the rain is too heavy then we will travel in to Croydon and shop!

I did not see a mention here as to when Independence Day is. On the web I found several contenders:- 27th Jan, 12 June (from Spain in 1811) 4th July (maybe imposed by USA).

So guys tell us when is the day or do you have many?

Independence from The Spanish, USA and Japan ...........

Well, we went to Morden and stayed all day. Weather wasn't too bad so didn't do any shopping.

Some of the acts were very good - especially liked group that play at Shepherd's Bush but didn't catch their name.

Husband liked gorl singer - Riva?

Going to Hounslow this Sunday and hope sun shines.
