we are typical british nigerians, and we will set a nairaland record by having the first get-together. The idea behind this is not to have an elaborate party but a little get-together, start small and then who knows. trust me man, its going to happen, even if its just 3 people that turn up,if you plan to be there, send me your username and real name. i already have names on my list.

I am game and will try and make it.
and please if you change the venue I don't mind but nowhere in SouthEast please. Too ghetto.
If anywhere else lets make it the Westend.
Can you imagine taking our yankee nairaland visitors to Peckham? LOL!

Living in a $950,000 home in the ghetto is not "Up and coming". It is borderline Insanity. Maybe they like the view.

lets stop vain suggestions please, give us the name of a suitable venue at Bayswater or westend if you know one. i am very familiar with west end and yet i could not figure out a nice place. theyre mostly celebrity clubs or gay clubs out there in the west(No offence to Gay folks) except we prefer the Park areas. i am not imposing my proposed venue on the house. but please be aware that if we do not focus on one thing for now, it may mare the whole idea. we are beggining to sound like typical Nigerians as someone metioned earlier. i am still waiting fo names to add to my list, indicate your interest now.

I am game.
If people want to venture out west, I will suggest Whiteleys in Bayswater, it has cinema complex, cafes, restaurants, all you can eat buffets.
Just a suggestion
And the bowling alley in Finsbury is just cool as well

I can't stop laughing. If you call Peckham Ghetoo, what would you call Brixton? The problem with Peckham and co is over-concentration of Nigerians, if anything. What will you call Tilbury,Chafford Hundred,Grays,Thamesmead and Plumstead?

My fellow Nigerians., Although I am a rare poster in here, allow me to make a suggestion. The Regent's Park in north west/central London might be a good venue. There is a sizable lake where you can hire row boats for about six pounds per person(adults), children cost a bit less. It also houses the London zoo, the Regent's canal with the Chinese restaurant shaped like a boat on the canal. There are boat trips available on the canal all the way to Little Venice. The park has a few cafes, open air theatre/concerts, playing areas for football, frisbees etc. It would be a great day for a picnic, since it is a large park one entance is near to Baker Street Tube Station(nr Madam Tussaud's wax works), which is about a 5 minute bus ride to Oxford Streert/Marble Arch. Another end is near Camden Town(think about the Camden markets etc). This I believe, would be a good place to show folks coming from abroad because of the touristy feel.
So folks, whatdyathink ?
