Notting Hill Carnival. We went on 'family day'...well put it this way; It wasn't quite the old food 'n wine frolic with picnic rugs and kids eating ice cream that family day would normally mean. The 3 or 4 actual families there with kids were suffering badly. It was heaving with 'families' who like to party. And believe it or not, there weren't hot dog sellers wandering through the crowd shouting "pies, hotdogs, sausage rolls" but there were blokes wandering through, not quite shouting, "charlie, pills, speed"...you think I'm kidding. Anyway, we settled for half a dozen red stripe & left the meal deals for the families. Looks like the kid in the pic spent all her pocket money in one go. Sorry 'bout the lack of posts; I've been very busy..new job ya know working for www.simpplydna.com in Battersea. Off to Spain on Thursday to spend the pounds I haven't actually got yet. Tash will already be there (she leaves on Tuesday), which means I get to move flats on Wednesday night. Yep - having been fortunate enough to flat sit for the last month, we've manage to rent a nice 1 bed flat in Putney for a deposit and month's rent of a billion pounds. I tried to increase the limit on my credit card but they refused for a couple of insane reasons : 1) "going to spain" isn't a good enough reason; 2) There's no evidence of any money going into my account. I don't know, I thought banks loved handing out credit; obviously not that much.
I like google maps. Can you tell? I even have them on my phone which is particularly useful given the ground I have to cover on foot due to the underground strike at the moment. I refuse to put facebook on my phone though; it's getting out of hand.
