WHAT A FIND...

Perfect 'little' decadent find in the heart of Soho!

Have you ever tasted the best cakes in-the-WORLD!!! Cakes that basically melts away in your mouth mmm mmm!

Go down to Princi, 135 Wardour Street, W1F 0UT

Princi is a distinctly authentic Italian bakery that offers its customers a mouth watering selection of pasta and meat dishes as well as some sumptuous freshly baked bread and dont forget about the unbelievable cakes.

PEER -TO-PEER, my one friend that is Italian (which never likes restaurant food as it never compares to his mom's home cooking) absolutely loves it!

The restaurant/deli is good for any occasion from a first date to a quick bite to eat with very nice ambience even a friendly doorman that welcomes in and greets you on the way out!

Go and enjoy!! Mmm mmm mmm

Movember Mofo

A few of my fellow Loungers may have noticed a fairly suspect looking piece of facial hair that I have recently been sporting. Do not be alarmed it is for a good cause - Movember - the chance for men to grow that moustache they have always wanted and to make money for charity!

On the left is the dream, and on the right is the reality - but there are 9 more moustache growing days in Novemeber to become Tom Selleck....

...Seriously it is for a good cause and any donation that you could make would be massively appreciated.

New Looks Best Dressed Uni 2008

The Lounge recently organised a number of in-store parties at New Look stores in 6 cities around the UK. The parties were part of the launch for their 2008 student campaign, the search for ‘New Looks Best Dressed Uni’. New Look had a fantastic response to the parties with between 200 – 300 students attending each party. Those lucky students enjoyed an exclusive 25% discount, goody bags, complimentary drinks and DJs playing tunes on the night. If you are a student and would like to join the New Look Facebook fan page to find out about future promotions & discounts then go to www.newlookbestdressed.com.

Goodbye Itunes no more Buy Buy

If you have not seen it. Then click the title of this article.

Spotify is here. It is simply the ultimate legal music application, the Itunes killer and possibly radio killer.

Every tune you could want, streamed to you. It changes how you think about music. It's no longer about ownership and having to store tracks. Its about having access to broadband and an unlimited music library at your finger tips.

Run it on your mobile, or your Mac / PC. Winner.

It's from teh guys behind Skype. You need to try it.

Wall-Painted Animation

This is a wall-animation entitled 'Muto' by Blu - a street-artist from Bologna that my Italian housemate Alessio claims is a sort of Italian version of Banksy.

Wherever you stand in the debate over graffitti as art or vandalism, you can't deny that it is quite impressive...

Busy Week

Team Rainbow had such a busy week last week - It was AMAZING!!!

Except for our daily fun & games at The Lounge we had 2 events for the SWAY Campus Tour In Association with Need For Speed and EA @ Trafalgar Square for the London Games Festival!

First LGF!

The site was very impressive, EA took over the whole Trafalgar Sq, with 2 big LED Screens, 3 tents filled with EA pods and loads of games to interact with

















I visited the LGF on a very rainy Saturday, to watch SWAY that was performing and to try my luck on the RockBand!

Even due to the rain, people took some shelter in the tents played away! Perfect activity for a Rainy afternoon!















Second : SWAY CAMPUS TOUR IN ASSOCIATION WITH NEED FOR SPEED UNDERCOVER


We launched the campus tour at a London based student night at the coolest new club Matter.







Matter was pumping with all the Hip Hop fans that came out to support SWAY & DJ PREMIER. In between the sets (& some between the sets - sorry guys) the ppl in the club came to play Need For Speed (again & again) coz with prizes like playing live against Sway and winning an XBOX 360 - who wouldn't want to....

Our Lucky winner James won in 24 sec! Poor Sway was left in the dark - but I think after his training at LGF, James will be in trouble.










Our second event happened in Norwich and was the final show for the Norwich Black Arts Festival.

OMG - What a hit!!! SWAY was amazing on stage, the crowd absolutely loved him and Need For Speed also felt lots of love with people queing up to play the game (and too meet the sexy Brand Ambassadors)









Will we be seeing you at our next events???

Catch us at:

Reading Univ - 15th November
Sheffield Univ - 18th November
Bristol Univ - 20th November
Warwich Univ - 21st November
Nottingham - Stealth - 28th November
