    When London.pm are involved ... anything goes!

    Are you sure you know what you're letting yourselves in for next year? Especially the London.pm Experience!

    I am more afraid of Paris.pm (and probably Lion.pm) experience than of London.pm Experience. At least these last like Orange.

    • Don't bring a friend which gives better talks than yourself. You will feel unconfortable.
