remember that thing....'flash mobbing' - organised on the interwebnet, and loads of people would turn up at the same place at the same time and perform some random act, like all playing a kazoo, or carrying vegetables, or whistling or something.....we should have more of this, why dont we see it anymore?

Noooo,,,okay, maybe it was a bit of a fad, but it was funny Smile I reckon it'd be a laff to organise more again.

I have this funny feeling that you perhaps have some suggestions young trev?

I'd go for some long lasting fads along the lines of being spontaniously nice to each other, and maybe, not littering etc


i know, really boring...

That sort of behaviour would probably get you shot nowadays.

Especially if you were 'foreign looking'.

You give me evil ideas, like a flash mob around parliament dressed like a really obviously hammed up version of an Arab terrorist, with water pistols loaded to fire at each other Very Happy For what purpose ... no idea.

So they're just 'London mobs' now then?

How about just turning up at Russel Brand's house with torches and pitchforks? If anyone is up for that just let me know.

No, they're all over. But I don't know details about flashmobs outside London, as that's where I live.
