I was waiting for you to throw that back on me!

Well here's what I have to say to you:
[spoiler]

[/spoiler]
Also, with a postcode starting with W2, I hardly call Whiteleys central London. It is more West London than central London (hence not on my cinema list!).... maybe for some it's central but then that's almost as good as me calling West India Quays a central London cinema!

Are you saying PXC didn't spent her entire weekend making us delicious baked goods?

I know! I was horrified to learn this information! She wasn't being pxc this weekend, she was too busy being sxc therefore no brownies for us!

Sorry c_t but sometimes it's too long to spell everything so I like to abbreviate a lot as most of the time people get me!

Too be far, I don't think anyone would call Cineworld Greenwich CG, but they'd call it the O2 instead.

Yes agreed, or just plain O2 Greenwich (as there is another O2 cinema on Finchley Road that is owned by Vue).

That must be just you then... if I see O2 Greenwich, "2" being the operative number, I would think it is referring to Cineworld Greenwich not the Odeon.
