Vue Cinema @ The O2, Greenwich
This cinema at the 02 is great. I didn’t have high hopes - I’ve been to other Vue cinemas and experienced huge queues to buy tickets, queues at the refreshments counter, queues to get into the screen (as they wait for cleaners between showings) and a learner projectionist fiddling …

Flecther’s Cafe in Waterbury
Fletcher’s Café is a cool gay bar that’s located in Waterbury. The bar is located down a safe street with secure parking and this is good because Waterbury is a scary city and just a dump but Fletcher’s is an awesome club to go and get your drink on …

R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet
R. Kelly’s Trapped in the Closet has to be one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. It never ceases to amaze what can be accomplished when you let an arrogant, narcissistic egomaniac fulfill his “artistic vision.” Sometimes you get something like Trapped in the Closet.
