Went to see Star Industry at the Slimelight. It was a good evening but the place was nearly empty. even during the gig. The singer was doing all those stadium-rock things like sticking the microphone out to the crowd for them to sing along into it.. and as a friend commented, this was with only about fifty people in the room and about five of whom were dancing. By 1:00 or so I’d had enough, having been there since 7:30... Was debating to myself whether to call in at Zaz's or Shana's and.. well, the Big Red is much closer to where I live, but life doesn't always work like that. Went to the Big Red and ran into a friend who was a bit upset. Her wallet had got stolen while there at the BR. I offered to drive her home, so I did. Now, she lives somewhere in deepest Edgware or Burnt Oak so it took me a while and was getting a little lost (in spite of the iphone's mapping thing) and probably was driving a bit tentatively as I didn't know my way out of the place and was relying on the maps on the phone (my sense of direction, or lack of it, is legendary..), so... a police car stopped me. Nothing of consequence, just got asked a few questions, but still a strange end to a strange evening.

Eek! I'm sorry you had such a time getting home again. Thank you for taking me all the way home. I'd have been okay getting the night bus from Camden followed by a taxi, but it was nice to be spared the hassle and the taxi fare at the other end.

Pats you on the back for the good deed, glad you made it home in the end. I hope the police officer was some use in helping you find your way?

Oh, by the time I'd rolled the window open and the policeman was doing the '.. evening, sir ..' routine the phone had already told me where I was and I could see what I needed in the map, but they did confirm the directions, instead of bundling me away as a suspected -insert your crime of choice here-, which for some irrational reason is what I always feel is going to happen when the police stop me (not that it happens so often, twice in about eight years..)
