PRESS RELEASE

Vampires in search for new blood

The London Vampyre Group
celebrates its 10^th anniversary in 2005, and will be starting the
New Year with a public Promenade of the Vampires in London on Saturday 8^th
January.

Numerous members of the 120-strong
group, in their fangs and full elaborate finery, will be meeting in Trafalgar
Square from 1pm to raise our profile and hopefully gain interest from potential
new members! We will be handing out flyers, posing for photos, selling copies
of our magazine The Chronicles, and answering questions about ourselves, the
group, vampires and any other topics we can!

The London Vampyre Group is an active social group for anyone with an
interest in all things Vampyric (books, films, history and folklore, clothing,
lifestyle etc.) and incorporating the Gothic genre. We do not encourage or promote blood drinking and
do not subscribe to the illusion that vampires are real.

We would welcome any publicity
for this event and hope that you can join us on 8^th January. In the
meantime, if you would like any further information, contact details are below.

For further information, contact: Tara Daynes, LVG
Secretary. 0774 667 4624 or 0207 415 7524, email lvg_secretary@hotmail.com

Out of curiosity, how many members of that group are involved in the Cam?

To my knowledge, not many, if any. Perhaps some cross-pollination might be in order, although most of the group isn't into roleplaying.

[karohemd.livejournal.com]

They strut around in the dark wearing frocks, paint themselves white and (pretend to) drink blood and you say they aren't into roleplaying?

I would be very scared if they all believed they actually were Vampires and that's exactly the kind of people we don't want in the Cam...

[nadriel.livejournal.com]

Did you actually read the bit that says "do not encourage or promote blood drinking and don't believe vampires are real"????

[mapp.livejournal.com]

I did kind of assume that the members didn't think themselves to be vampires, otherwise why'd they organise a rally at one o'clock in the afternoon? Unless they're suicida.. okay, I'll stop thinking about this now.

[childhoods-hour.livejournal.com]

I think Id like to come, it sounds fun.

[nadriel.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll be there- you won't be able to miss me- will be in bright red outfit with hat...it'd be nice to see you.

I'll post my mobile number in a seperate locked post so you can ring me if you do want to go and arrive later, in case we move on to somewhere else (which we might be doing).

[childhoods-hour.livejournal.com]

oke doke, ill probably text you if i do come out. ;_)

"do not encourage or promote blood drinking"

damn! I'd have thought that was the best bit!

Daylight....???

[cholten99.livejournal.com]

So, a group of Vampire style-fanatics are meeting up during the day? I mean I was going to mention something about in public but never mind that there's the whole "bursting into flames" issue! ;-)

Re: Daylight....???

[nadriel.livejournal.com]

Picture if you will, a fuse burning down. Keep this mental image in mind.


The group is for fans of vampires in fiction, not people who think they are vampires, who are specifically not allowed in the group.

Improve the post?

1) you may want to remove the br tags and/or the carriage returns to reduce the whitespace; putting some of it below a cut may be a plan but I care not

2) embolden the important bits so the funtwit comments are reduced, stress the literary aspect of them; the group is interested in stuff about vampires, not being vampires. If I lived in London, I'd join, the interests are good rahter than weird; this surprised me considering...

3) Is that Tara as in she who put Recci and Sophie up for the weekend? Is she by any chance currently single?

[uvpaladin.livejournal.com]

can i take garlic bombs/bread and throw it at them?

[nadriel.livejournal.com]

Feel free, but since I'll be there in a fairly expensive costume, I'll probably be forced to hurt you.

[weaselbitch.livejournal.com]

Will we get to see a picture of you in your costume?

[nadriel.livejournal.com]

That depends on who takes photo's, and whether or not they let me have them. Of course, there's a guaranteed way of seeing me in my costume... :-)

[weaselbitch.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately its so cold in here my feet have frozen to the floor (well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it), so I can't go out.

Perhaps we could persuade you to wear it to the Mage game next Sunday :-)

Trafalgar square...

...that place where all the incontinent pigeons live?

...a bunch of goth/vampire enthusiasts in all their finery.

I'll be there with a bag of corn and powdered ex-lax.
