Longleat- Mr & Mr Pendleton's Wedding Hosted By Ceawlin, Viscount Weymouth

Wow, sometimes being couped up in the Big Smoke almost makes you forget how beautiful the countryside is in the UK. Well this week-end I had my memory topped up in a most sublime and stylish way. I was invited to my good friend Nana's Wedding to the quiet but charming Ian Pendleton in Wiltshire. The invitation said 2pm at the Orangery, Longleat. Little did I realise that no one had been allowed to have a Wedding in the Orangery for the last 40 years. I always knew Nana had connections by Boy was this a link up. Her very good friend Ceawlin, Viscount Weymouth had kindly offered his enchanting Estate to the proceedings.

The train journey into Wiltshire was smooth and pleasant: I occupied by reading and catching up on Global MacroEconomics with the Bible that is the Econmist - great read. I stayed at a quaint hotel in the middle of some lush fields called http://www.oldmanorhotel.com/ in Trowbridge. Beautiful and over a hundred years old.

Quick turnaround ...... onward bound to Longleat http://www.longleat.co.uk/ - Wowza what an inspiring driveway and magnificent House. Tourists everwhere and only the VIP Guests at the Wedding were allowed into the inner sanctum. Of course I was one of these..... How refreshing to meet old friends again after 5 yeasrs and still have a warm affinity with them. Thank you Pendletons for putting me on a most positive table with the great and good. I enjoyed stimulating conversation whilst I ate a most veritable meal...... I whiled the time away with the likes of journos Martin Deeson & Kate Spicer as well as PR Guru Naila . What larks we had !!!!

Didnt think that having a Wedding on a Football World Cup that both Nigeria and England were playing would be such a blast!!!!!

The speech from Ceawlin was from the heart and most endearing!

His Father Lord Bath was also in magnificent spirits.

Great break, lovely Wedding and fabulous company ......... Thanks Guys. Just what I needed :-)

May the sun light up your path,

And the winds push forrward all your endeavours !!!!!

Congratulations The Pendletons xxxxxx

CLIENT BLOG WITH A TESTIMONIAL - ASH CLOUD

Good to read how our Clients appreciate our good work :-)

As part of the stranded pack of Americans stuck in London last month after Iceland’s volcano burped, and shut down the skies over Europe, the stranded masses were faced with a common dilemma … how are we ever going to get out of here? The news changed hour to hour. Saturday’s flights were cancelled, rescheduled to Monday. Sundays were cancelled, rescheduled to Tuesday, and so on.

We became increasingly frustrated by the realization that the details of when and how we would finally get home was beyond our control. Rather than just sit by passively and bemoan our condition, I recruited some fellow Skoll World Forum exiles, Drummond Pike, Dave Chen , and Jim Greenbaum, to join me in brainstorming our alternatives. We sized the market to be as many as 250 fellow Skoll Forum attendees, who all felt the pressure (some more than others) to find an alternative way home. So the problem was defined, the market sized, and the search for solutions began.

Event Brite Page

We could take a train to Denmark, and a ferry to Iceland (ironically, no flights were cancelled in Iceland, since the volcano was east of the airport, and planes had no problem taking off and landing). Infrequent ferry service made this option a poor choice. A ferry to France and a train to Paris was considered. However, flights from Paris were also at risk, and seats on the EuroStar were quickly sold out. How about a charter bus from London to Madrid? Spain had no problems with the volcanic ash, and a bus with two drivers could make the trip non-stop in about 18 hours, with only brief stops for fuel.

Pike, Hornthal & Epega

We found a fantastic ground operator, EMC3, that was willing to work with us and had a stellar track record in creating amazing events and support with little-to-no advance warning. We determined that a charter bus with on-board bathroom, food, and two drivers could do the trick, and arranged for as many as five buses at 50 per bus to take our ragged band of weary travelers to a safer harbor.

Monday night, however, a false sense of security set in as people we convinced that flights would be back to normal on Tuesday. So our planned ‘announcement’ at the TEDx Volcano event was tabled due to a rise in apathy and the hope that we would all soon be on our way home.
The volcano had other ideas, and late that night, burped again, triggering another round of cancelled flights. We spent Tuesday reviewing alternatives and considering our options. There was competition (Skoll Forum was rumored to have chartered a bus, but it was then cancelled; rumors of a charter flight also came and went). By Tuesday late afternoon, we decided to take matters into our own hands and committed to find the cost of one bus (to start), and made those arrangements as the business day was closing. To be clear, this was a non-profit social venture; the financial goal was to fairly recover the out-of-pocket costs for the bus, and share it equally among the passengers. If there was a shortfall, we would share in the losses, aided by our friend, fellow castaway, and President of Skoll Global Threats, Dr. Larry Brilliant.

That night, we began the process of marketing, and quickly determined that we needed a back-end system to enable us to reach our community efficiently and effectively. Impressed by the speed at which TEDx Volcano was pulled together, we adopted the same platform – EventBrite. While I wish I had started before midnight, I must say that it couldn’t have been easier for a first-time user to set up the page, and begin emailing our friends who had heard about our expedition. We told people that they should think of this as an insurance policy — a chance to get to Spain by Thursday morning, where planes were actually taking off. By 3am, the site was “live” (what’s a start-up without at least one all-nighter?). We were in business. As emails went out, we were able to watch our reservations like a hot stock going public in 1999. 50 seats available … 42 seats … 35 seats. People calling to put seats on hold. Peter Greenberg called from CBS. They wanted to do a story on the “Magic Bus” and Peter was coming with two people from his crew. Fame as well as fortune ? 14 seats, 5 seats, do we need a second bus? We ended the day nearly sold out on bus #1, with a wait list starting to form. London departure set for Thursday at 1pm. Time to get some sleep and get ready for packing and final day logistics on Wednesday.
Wednesday morning, we awoke to a different landscape. Seems like perhaps the airports were closed unnecessarily. Many test flights were made and came back without any damage, and the industry was crying to get back in the sky. Looks like Heathrow would be open by Thursday morning (just about the time the bus would be arriving in Madrid). People wanted to get out of their bus commitments, but we had already signed the deal with the ground operator. The wait list evaporated, and by the time the bus departure came, there were only 4 people on board. Bus to Madrid – Departure The only saving grace is that we were able to offload most of the food and donate it to a local shelter.

Our failed venture had many earmarks of success, in spite of the time and money spent. I can count at least five major milestones/accomplishments. 1) Four people were able to get to Spain and get home. 2) 46 people slept better knowing they had a “Plan B” escape route for their insurance premium, 3) a local shelter got a generous donation of some great food. 4) Drummond Pike, Jim Greenbaum, and I were able to get back to our day jobs, none the less for wear. And 5) we made it from Start-up to Shut-down in 36 hours — I think that could be a world record!

McQueen's In The City

Bringing a Touch of Vintage Hollywood Glamour to East London

"Sometimes you have to say goodbye to the things you know, and hello to the things you don't." Steve McQueen

McQueen... London's newest bar, club, restaurant, live performance and music venue takes its inspiration from Steve McQueen, the king of cool, his iconic style and attitude.

Bringing a little vintage Hollywood glamour to London; sophisticated, tasteful and refined, this is a venue for connoisseurs bored with the usual 'go-to-a-bar-and-drink' nights out.

With its high ceilings, chesterfields and warm inviting fireplace, The Lounge Bar is possibly the most McQueen influenced room. Not only is this room reminiscent of a New York City loft style apartment, this room is also a tribute to the late Alexander McQueen, with a lavish mannequin styled sculpture, art deco design, with plenty of vintage touches and an ever-evolving art collection.

The Club is where McQueen goes a bit rock'n'roll, mixing 1960s Hollywood glamour with a contemporary live music space, creating a venue unique for comfort, service and experience. This is boutique clubbing at its very best. Expect to see some of the world's top DJs & promoters here every week.

Chris McCormack, Head of Live Music and former lead guitarist of 'Three Colours Red' and 'Grand Theft Audio' with his team of respected musicians will bring in the very best acts in today's music scene including bands, musicians and DJs old and new.

Like the bar, the restaurant at McQueen has a vintage cool appeal, inspired by the look and feel of McQueen’s movies. As such one wall of the restaurant will play iconic movies with live music and performance, inspired by the 1930s supper clubs era.

AGM Theo Von-Sternberg and bar manager Eline Bosman have created a list of simple, no frills, delicious drinks inspired by McQueen, and the golden age of Hollywood circa 1920s to 1960s.

The fruit-led cocktail phenomenon of the 80s and beyond has taken a back-seat to the old school style/flavour and balance led drinks. All the house drinks are American based classics with a slick twist. Using spirit bases that were available during that time (1920s - 1960s)... rum, brandy, vodka, whisky, and liquors.

Open Tuesday until Sunday from midday, there's a party every night at McQueen...

Saturdays David De Darvalho's Body Heat nights fuse music, art, fashion and society.

Crazed Cabaret on Friday's is 1960s Hollywood meets alternative cabaret, with resident DJs Team Disgusting, Jimmy Napes & Emily Rawson, alongside weekly performances from cabaret artists such as TrixeeBelle, Chrys Columbibe, Monooka the Marionette, Naomi DeKleined on the fiddle, plus music much more... dress code is decadent so dress to impress.

Thursday 27th May is EMC3 Launch Event at our beautiful venue.

On Wednesdays Patrick Alan, singer/songwriter/choreographer and Michael Jackson's former dancer, brings his legendary NYC & LA celebrity jammin' session and live show to McQueen.

Kuga Manuva on Tuesdays is a new music night for the fashion-forward crowd. DJ Richard Stone orchestrates a mix of new electro/hip hop/mash-ups/ with dub-step and drum and bass. Expect big name artists and acts with resident DJs Richard Stone, Dan Healy, Bassam Ibellini, Sam Young and El Chico.

And last, but not least, Julian Bennet styles Fashion Sundays.

Resident DJs and entertainers also include Max Bloom, Vula Basement Jaxx, Raff, Jodie Harsh & The TrixeeBelle Show, we also have some extra special performances and parties planned by some of the biggest names in showbiz...

McQueen, 55-61 Tabernacle Street, London, EC2A 4AA.

Opening Times: McQueen is open Sundays - noon ‘til midnight, Tuesday to Wednesday - noon ‘til 1am and Thursday to Saturday - noon ‘til 3am*

*No admittance after 1am.

Steve McQueen fan, interior designer, bar/restaurant and club impresario -

McQueen is born of the imagination of Dezzi McCausland.

Grace Jones Poerty Reading At Chris Levine's

Just before I went Scuba Diving in Tenerife with my Beau we were invited by the one and only Dr Nastro to Chris Levine's Portraits of the Legend Grace Jones "Pull Up To The Bumper" . Seeing as she has been an inspiration of mine since my flat top days, when I had hair; I had to be there. Mad queue was deftly bunny hopped thanks to Reena and Raffi at the Vinyl Factory. Forgot how fly this Venue is. Great for launches. Needless to say I was not disappointed as Miss Jones was as inspirational and unique as ever. 60 years young and still tight and beautiful as ever. Great to meet such a person who has transend time and frontruns style. WE LOVE YOU GRACE !!!! Must catch her Gig!!!

FROM SPOONFED ART- "Who would dare to copy Grace Jones? Lady Gaga apparently. 2 weekS or so ago, news emerged that Jones had turned down the opportunity to play live with Gaga because, as Jones told the Guardian: "I'd just prefer to work with someone who is more original and someone who is not copying me, actually.” Ouchies!

I only mention this because the thought of someone copying Grace Jones' performance this evening is really not one worth considering. We're at the Vinyl Factory, a massive industrial sort of space underneath a rather unpreposessing record store in Soho, at the launch party of Stillness at the Speed of Light, an exhibition of portraits of Grace Jones by contemporary light artist Chris Levine. After hours of gradually building excitement, Jones arrives, surrounded by subordinates and cameras. Sporting a black lace eye-mask and long Red Riding Hood-style cloak, Jones struts to a stool, sits down, pulls the microphone towards her, and...no, alas she doesn't start singing; she reads a poem. A really long poem. It's not quite what we were all hoping for – as the background chatter escalates, Jones declares in no uncertain terms, “Fucking shut up! Or leave!” Can't imagine Gaga doing that huh?
Anyway, it's all good fun, and the Chris Levine's work here is really cool. Levine is probably best known for his portrait of the Queen from a couple of years ago. Striking and beautiful, it was hailed by Mario Testino as "the most beautiful image of Her Majesty I have ever seen". Which is rather nice. Most of the works on show here see a sparkly-hatted Jones given the Levine light treatment. I have no idea how he does it, but the results are like disco holograms that shift and shimmer as you move around them. The highlight for me is a piece that at first glance appears simply as a verticle strobe light. But then just as you look away, an image of Grace Jones flashes into your peripheral vision. Moving your head from side to side, the image repeatedly flashes up and then disappears. It's impossible to get a firm focus on – it just keeps dodging away. Grace Jones – as her unexpected performance this evening demonstrates – just won't be pinned down."

Stag Do With Style - Amsterdam The Magnificent 7

'Dam- I love this City!

Almost Bullseye

Les Guerillas

La bon viveur

Les Amis De Chats Extrordinaire

Le Stag

Chilling like Jay Z .....

Last week-end I hosted a superior quality Stag do week-end in Amsterdam. I wasn't sure what the coo would be but was pleasantly surprised when my Client took me aside on the Private Jet ,as he handed me a glass of Champagne, and said,"Baba, we not going to Amsterdam to F*%k Prostitutes, we go for fun & action". Typical French: style and panache with no mincing of words...... what an hounour to be in this league of extra-ordinary kats. Humility and power

are a most infectious concoction !

That's how our adventure began: Freefall simulators in Wind Tunnels Milton Keynes then a Helicopter transfer to a Citation Excel Cessna Private Jet that whisked us off to Amsterdam (Funny how much of the traffic on the seas and land you see at 17,000 Ft) in 30 mins from Stanstead. Wow what a whistle stop week-end we had......Shooting MAGNUM .44s, Gloch 9s and long range rifles - I did pretty well for a lover not a fighter. Friday we stayed at the Art Deco Hotel Amrath then Dinner at BO5 http://www.bo5.nl/ onward bound to Jimmy Choo. Lucky I wasn't drinking as this was a fastrack affair moving at break neck speed. Late to bed and early to rise as our 1st excursion was Paintballing in the countryside of Netherlands which turned out to be their favourite adventure. With due haste we had lunch as they jumped into their Go-Karts and sped off on to trails befitting any F1 specialists. Phew - I was exhausted just watching as I made a conference call to the Nigerian High Commission. Agenda : Nigeria At 50 . No time to rest as sleeping is for cats we boosted back to the Hotel driven by Burt in the super luxury Merc for a massage & men's facial treatment. Mmmmm ....smelt divine although I only had time for a dip in the pool.

What a feeling making people happy ....wouldn't give it up for the world! After this we batted on to an early starting Supperclub which turned out to be enchanting. Could have done with more shows although the food was a culinary delight.

After the 4 bottles of Grand Cru Montrachets and a few cocktails these league of extraordinary kats were pooped:leaving moi & 2 of the last men standing to return at 5 am from a Club called "Escape"....couldn't wait! Big up to our man Michael in Amsterdam who helped set up this seemless campaign.

To my delight the next morning we went on a VIP Tour of this fine City guided by expert Evert who took us across town from Anne Frank's last abode, trhough the Red Light discritc ( not a pretty sight at 11 am) then culminating in a 2 hour tour of the the Van Gogh Museum: Genius as was his brother Theo!

Put your hands up for the 'Dam - we love this city !!!!!

SUPPERCLUB, AMSTERDAM

supperclub, London - Restaurant & Club Of The Month

Click on image to enlargen.
Website www.supperclub.com

Come and join us on the 22nd April from 8pm to experience the phonomenon that is the supperclub !

“ The most fun I have in bed with my clothes on " Ben Grant, - a supperclub regular.


Opened at the beginning of December last year, supperclub London combines the many avant garde, risqué and occasionally provocative elements that have made the original site in Amsterdam world-famous and inspired so many other concepts across the globe. Whether it be the food and drink, unique eating style, music, performances, DJs or visual art, supperclub London is every bit as innovative, unique and daring as those who have visited the site in Holland, opened 17 years ago, would expect.

As owner Bert van der Leden explains: “Every night is different. Whether it's the food, music, performances, art, personnel or the guests themselves, a supperclub evening is only a success if all five senses are stimulated. You can be yourself here, and let yourself go.”

The original supperclub was started by a group of young creatives taking over an Amsterdam warehouse in the late 1980’s to view each other’s art. Lacking furniture, they brought in their own mattresses, the beginning of the eating concept. So inundated were the original group that Bert van der Leden decided to give everyone an opportunity to partake in the creativity and decadence of the space and opened to the public in 1992.

The UK supperclub opens on the site of another legendary institution, Subterranea – the nightclub that defined clubbing in London in the 90’s. Located under the Westway, at the more funky end of Portobello Road, supperclub’s edgy performances and sometimes challenging spirit recreate the air of urban chic Subterranea was famed for, an evening out that is as exciting as it is memorable. Leave your day to day life at the door and allow yourself to be swept away into the freedom of the night.

“London’s clubbing heritage and vibrant passion for art and fine dining, makes it a perfect supperclub city. Londoners have long subscribed to our mantra - If you just want to look you should go to the theatre, at supperclub, you make the experience,” added van der Leden.

Food and Drink
Renowned for eating on beds, with no a la carte menus or multiple ‘seatings’, the four-course tasting menu, priced at £45 can be enjoyed for the entire evening. As one would expect from such an innovative and creative organisation, the dishes served at supperclub London are as exciting as the club itself, with no compromise on quality, tried and tested flavour combinations.

Music, Performances, VJs and Art
Naturally, music plays an incredibly important role at supperclub, and with over 1 million compilation albums sold worldwide, the reputation of their djs is unsurpassed. The supperclub djs around the world continuously exchange ideas and tracks to create a recognised supperclub sound, and add their own, local flavour. Whilst video projection in nightclubs may now be commonplace, it was supperclub who originated this idea, aware that music with moving images makes a deeper impression than without. As well as music, the creative forces behind supperclub feel that performance is at least as important as the music and the food. The performances are varied and always novel, showcasing some individuals that are recent discoveries and rising stars and others that have already held exhibitions in all the great world cities or have performed in leading clubs.

supperclub has already established itself as one of West London’s leading hotspots, frequented by stars including Robbie Williams and his fiancée Ayda Field, Lily Allen, Jaime Winstone, Cat Deeley and James Corden at the EMI post-Brits after party. Other high profile clients who have recently visited include Jade Jagger, Rhys Ifans and Matthew Williamson.

France v England Rugby Week-end in Paris

I lucked out last Wednesday when a dear Friend and Daniel's Uncle called me and asked " What are you doing this week-end" As my beau is away I said "Not much, what's new?" He then went on to invite me to Paris to watch the France v England game. Being an avid rugger fan I couldnt really turn down this offer especially as it was pretty much paid for already. So without further ado I booked my Eurostar ticket ( ain't cheap last minute). I prepared myself for Gai Paris! "Allez Les Blancs" was to be my chant.

We were due to hook up with some of Roy's friends from France - specifically Francois Carrara

, his nephew Jean Baptiste and his kind Parents were our hosts. 10 English & 10 French Fans in the same melting pot....this was going to be interesting !

As I am on the wagon it was a tough from the off as our meeting point was to be at the mid-Pyrénées restaurant called L'Auberge Aveyronnaise

http://www.aveyron.com/english/phbistro/aubergeUK.html , 40 rue Gabriel Lamé 75012 Paris in the 12th arrondissement in Cour St Emilion . Daniel , the fashionista that he is, chose to wear a shirt that was most similar to the restaurant's tablecloth ( See attached). Realising I was fighting a losing battle ( especially as the Poets were joining us - Group of Roy's Mates whose meetings are made up of reciting colourful poetry and supping at some of the most sumptuous restaurants in london - most notably Julie's in Holland Park) I bulked and decided to drink on that day for this special occasion . I knew as we were being hosted by Francois and the Frenchies it wasn't going to be binge session but a culinary experience. I was not disappointed as the choice of restaurant was spot on. Rustic ambience, fine light red wine, singing banter with the locals and a most delectable cheese & sausage meal called Aligot made up the body of a tremendous lunch. Thanks Dorian for the L'Aveyron Hat and warm hospitality!

Here is Dorian doing what he does best "Cheesing up our yummy meal.....mmmm!"

We were chaparoned by Francois and his merry band of friends to his tres gentil Parents house ( Chers Grandparents Carrara , merci pour votre hospitalité et couche. Envoyer mon meilleur aux poulets) and a whistle stop tour of bars, trains, buses & bistros. The great thing about rugby is the camaraderie & entente cordiale that is shown by hosts to guests from rival teams whether boy,girl, man or woman. If only football could take a leave out of rugger's book: the world would be a happier place!

It was my 1st time at Stade De France and even with the deluge of rain it was a most impressive experience. Shame England lost though if the truth be known the ref was biast in favour of our Gallic friends across the pond!

Allez le bleu et la entente cordiale !!!

PS Thanks Serge for the 1st class seat on the Eurostar train back :-)

Aura,Mayfair Soiree For EMC3 Founder Members & Friends

Last Friday 19th March with Alistair ill and Daniel already in Paris for the rugger I was left holding the baby on this one. I did get a pleasant surprise when by 6pm our Guestlist for the Founder Members & Friends Party had burgeoned to a staggering 350. The Club's capacity was 280 at best ....what were we goingto do?

Luckily the rain seemes to have detered about 40 % of our people so it was alright on the nite. After some Itsu noodles; I and some of the girls ( Sarah of Bournemouth and Isabel Of Boston) arrived ready, willing and able to throw a F**K off Party. Thanks to Alberto, Matt & Peter at Aura, Mayfair all cordialities & professionalisms were adhered to and maintained at a most superior level. Thanks Roxy & the Guys! The Caprioskas & Canapes went down a blast. Bankers, Moguls, Dancers, Fashionitas, Gamers, Students, Mystics and Funkters mixed and enjoyed. Seemed like a singles nite to me.

Having to catch a ride to Paris at the crack of a sparrows..... I ducked out early at 12am and left them to it. Apparently the party went on till late and was a raving success!

Nice one crew.... Picture to follow!

The British Museum Presents The Kingdom Of Ife Exhibits

After a sumptuous lunch with the Family I spent last Sunday in the sun with my beau Estefania and my other love my niece Ibiene. We went to the British Museum to checkout the Kingdon Of Ife Exhibition of Sculptures. Very interesting to see the wealth of culture and creativity that dates back more than 1000 years comparable to some of the most pronounced European Cultures.

It is a must see for any Africans in diaspora ....take the kids! Actually it's great for anyone interested in beautiful Culutures, Art, Craft & History.

MUST SEE :
