tales of the week-end

[flaviomatani]

Sitting at a Costa Coffee in Cricklewood, amidst rows of empty boarded up shops, making time on my way to a lesson -boy doing a Grade 5 later today.

Birthday celebration: I'd said on FB this year I'd only do a gathering for pizza, beer and music at Aces & Eights, near where I live, hitching a ride on this event. This went very well apart from the pub showing the foot-ball at the end. Doesn't everybody watch the footie, doesn't everybody love it? Well, not everybody, I don't. It was a good evening, though,m a good gathering that ended in four of us in another pub exchanging stories. I may have drunk rather more than I usually do. A very good evening.

Saturday was the Alternative Picnic in Hampstead Heath. It was good... there'll be pictures...

Happy belated birthday! See, my Facebook exodus made me miss it. Sorry they had to ruin it with football!

Very belated thanks! I survived that -and the other celebration (that one a rather impromptu one) at the same place a week after. I can't believe I'm this age. My grandfather was this age when I was just about old enough that I can now remember him, it's kind of wrong. But, alas, the arrow of time (or the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune...)
