I tried a few times to get one throughout the night. All I know is that at 4am they had not become active to select but by 7am they had all gone. I fell asleep during this period so can't narrow it done any further than that. It goes without saying I did not get one.

I have Lauren and Kelly, you know those guys are total squares. If they're up for it I see no reason not to have a big Manics shindig.

Hmm, that's one long trip on the District line that time of night... and an even longer trip home after :-(

You're talking multiple nightbus or taxi territory that time of night, and it'll be freezing cold as a bonus.
