The trouble was dealt with swiftly, the security there were tight. I heard the police came along later but soon left. The place looked AMAZING, the crew had really gone all out and it was packed. Personally I don’t think the trouble early on had much of a long term effect on the mood, more gave people something to chat about. 😉 I think it showed everyone how good the security were and if anything made most people feel a bit safer. It did stop us going out to find a cash point though. :laugh_at: Good to see some PV peeps. :love: The drinks tokens things was a bit of an arse, I always hate that and I’ve never seen it at a free party before.

There didn’t seem to be much notice being taken of any other laws anyway. :lol_big:

some people are claiming its pikeys, other that its “millwall firm”

It wasn’t the Millwall firm, it’s just that the place is so near to the Millwall football stadium. Apparently a lot of the people involved have caused trouble at Psy parties before and were recognised…

I’ve seen it at nearly all of the London Psy parties I’ve been to?

What was the crack with drink tokens? Was there an actual bar set up there? 😉

You have a balloon stall, a token stall and a drinks stall. Balloons are paid for there (due to them all being the same price). To get drinks you buy tokens then exchange them for the drinks you want.
I think you might pay in tokens so the bar staff don’t have to faff about with coins counting them up in darkness. Its can get a bit messy when you’re off your face but I’d rather pay with 2 tickets than a bunch of 20’s and 10’s… :yawn:

yeah i think your right …as the person who i was talking to who was part of the crew yold me .. “the robbers came” .. and not “some robbers” .. and also other things he said made me think that that they were noticed and had been seen b4 .. i think he said some thing like some of them got through security b4 the clocked on who they were as they wern’t doing any thing bad at the time .. but others were caught and then it all became apparent.. and some one else had told me that the same thing was attempted a few partys ago …:crazy: but it all got dealt with b4 it got too out of hand

To be honest I think the tension has been simmering for a while now. Most of the parties I go to in London have, how shall we put this – ‘undesireables’ who aren’t there for the music. Unfortuantly it’s difficult to turf the brats out cos they kick off and OB become involved. I guess this is what happened at the weekend, sort of glad I wasn’t there

i thought the entire “token system” was to prevent people getting done for alcohol sales legilsation i.e. not licensed

its a bit like you can gamble with tokens but not money unless you are licensed

also i’m not entirely sure football firms have the power or the influence anymore to rob anything but an grans mobility scooter.

It really didn’t have any effect on the night. It was over and dealt with within 10 minutes and there wasn’t any atmosphere after.
