    Ok, ok, ok, my thread!

    Anyone got any good flash mobs to GOOD music?

    There are some lovely Xmas carols in shopping malls.

    Even some cute baby guitars.

    And that can also lead to flash mob wedding proposals with some epic fails & females gushing "yes" to some bling while the man is on one knee.

    It is all about human emotion......

    And this thread has hit some raw nerves.

    Looking forward to what & where this thread can go.......

    Within reason!

    This is markets & economics thread............

    What's the cost of some flash mobs & getting married?

    I was at the mall in the food court once and noticed that there were too many uber fashionable, uber attractive people around. Sure enough they busted out into a dance sequence. It was pretty awesome, you feel kind of high and greatfull.

    At least you were awake before they busted out.

    What did they do & where & when?

    It was at Warringah Mall like 2 years ago at Thursday night shopping. A few started it and more from the audience joined as it went.

    They probably made a video or possibly the mall hired them.

    Nevertheless it was an experience.

    Warringah mall....

    Fond memories from a decade ago.

    190 from Avalon to MONA Vale

    Dee why bus mall.

    Had a decade and half in Avalon living 200 yards from beach via bush bike.

    Old family beach house on 1/4 acre block with asbestos panels.

    $100 per week rent to my dear old mum.

    Working / employed MONA Vale Library.

    Memories are both black & white & colour.

    That's enough, will await golden oldies replies.

    Thanks

    Nothing to do with flash mobs, but I lived with some Spaniards once. Lovely people. One in Spain worked as a paralegal, the other generally a good position in business. They moved to the UK and earned more than back home: Working as cleaners in a tourist hotel. And not even in London where wages are higher.

    True story.

    Note this was before the Spanish property bubble. In some ways they are reverting back to their mean. Except their socialist policies have too much employment-destroying 'green' energy projects at the same time as the property crash throwing all those people out of work (almost a thread-hijacking statement, I know sorry).

    I miss the beaches, Avalon really is a special place, and the girls are beautiful, a friend of mine aptly called them Avalonians :) Bungan Beach, Palm Beach, nice, there was one just below Warriewood that was nice too, I think Turrametta?

    100% off topic, but thank you Aguaholic - I hadn't heard me some Rick in quite a while. Brings back memories of shortly-post-high-school times :)

    Mmm looking back I can see that in the first two

    Third comment was a different story though

    Fair enough, my apologies to EM and DD

    Been copping some flack around here more than usual lately and over reacted a bit misreading those two

    Imagine if the power of the flash mob was used for other stuff. Can't think of anything now but that would be cool.
