I tried taking an ink polaroid of the London picnic on SAt. but it was the first I'd done, so you could just make out a group of about 15 cold but stuffed and getting pished bods in a circle under a few trees, while the rain bucketed down on Primrose Hill and a few souls braving the weather laughed at us while we fed their dogs sausage rolls and tourists took photos. We survived outside for 2 hrs before decamping to the pub.
Arse and double arse. I got out of bed ridiculously late on Sat'day and then miscalculated the time to get from Shepherds Bush to Camden, ended up getting there at 2.20. As I had only bought a bottle of red wine, I thought I'd stop at various emporiums to stock up. Being hungover from the night before, my shopping faculties went slightly wonky, and I ended up with 6 of those Big Bud things and a bottle of cherry vodka to compliment my Shiraz. Oh, and a derisory showing in the snack department. It took me another half hour to find Primrose Hill, the top of which was singly lacking in indie-folk folk. So, with my back starting to give out, I found the quick way back towards the high street and the Spread Eagle, wherein I proceeded to purchase a bottle of Staropramen, mindful of the fact I had about 25 quids worth of booze in my rucksack, none of which looked like regular pub booze. No-one B&S like in there (though christ knows exactly who I was expecting to find) so, *sniff*, I went home. If anyone on Primrose Hill sighted a slightly red-faced, lean, mean, six foot tall person, bright blue tracksuit top and white v-neck T-shirt, light coloured trews and brown boots, marching to the top of the hill, and marching bloody-well back down again, well you had the chance to pull the trigger and you blew it. Stupid Turt ps. No need to feel sorry for me. I had all the ammo I needed to get well arseholed in Clapham that night. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
