Tripitaka   10 #6 Posted October 7, 2010 Good idea and will look good if everyone obeys the orders, can't say the poem is particularly inspiring though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

beanbananas   10 #8 Posted October 7, 2010 I'd love to do this but the chances of me getting my two young children to remain even partly still are slim. How much do you think it matters?... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Farslad   10 #9 Posted October 7, 2010 Flashmobs are a bit old hat now.  And isn't the point of them that nobody knows it's going to happen?  Posting it on here you will just have loads of people standing waiting to watch it. Sort of misses the point.  Still, whatever floats your canoe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Campanula   10 #11 Posted October 9, 2010 How did it go?  I have always wanted to take part in a flash mob so I took the kids along. I sat them on one of those big planters and got them to read their books while I took pictures. It wasn't the most spectacular flash mob - not like the Sheffield stood still one. But it was still quite exciting! I heard lots of passers by saying 'what's going on?'. There must have been about 100 participants and quite a few took up really good poses.
