'Flash mob' makes it into the Dictionary

The English Oxford Dictionary has added Flash Mob into it's listing only a year after the phenomenon started. The 11th edition of the Concise Oxford English Dictionary was published on Thursday 8th July and included other new words such as Vavavoom of which there is evidence that it has been in use since the nineteen fifties.

Flashmobbers have made a small and insignificant difference! Hurrah!

Help!

Am getting disgruntled. Am trying desperately trying to find a flashmob near me thats still in existence.

Have joined the MK one, the East Midlands one even the London one but nobody is posting any messages.

Where can I find a group that's active?

Yours Skids.

Flashmob your mates with alternative greetings cards and birthday cards!
