Amy and I got lost in Trocadero on Wednesday. We were also locked in the cineworld, we had to go out the back fire exit way. Parts of the ceiling had fallen down and it was rather scary. We watched some of Smart People and Charlie Bartlett. I like that movie, especially for
this part. After, we went to I Am Immune, Capital X and Scarlet Soho at Bar Rumba. I cannot remember so much because I was so exhausted. I don't think I constructed a single coherent sentence all night.
SS are probably the hardest band to photograph live.The rest of my time has been taken up with shopping and thoughts of shopping. I do not like it at all. People. In my face. Grrr. However, when I go with my friend Heidi, it is always a wonderful experience. We have tea breaks and she takes me to charming places like
Persephone Books. She is building up her collection of them. I've only read Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day (when is the movie out?) but I will eventually read them all. On Friday, she bought two more when we went furniture shopping in Liberty. I saw the nicest desk that I will have to buy. It had a pleasing suck to it when I opened the drawers. She has bought her first house and I'm going to get her some nice mugs and fabric that we saw there. I also started thinking about Christmas presents and I have written a draft list for a few people. We had lunch in Leon. I bought the nicest dress in Ceci Tokyo and saw the best Carvela shoes in Selfridges. I will buy them later. And this:
I'm pretty sure everyone in their life has taken a picture of this, but I hadn't. We were quite convinced that we saw Dennis Norden with an eye patch and a limp.
Today, Heidi taught me how to make the tastiest cheesecake in the world. And I loved it.
The base has ameretti as well as digestive biscuits. It makes a delicious difference.I've started to nick my sister's little camera when I go to places that don't allow/require mine, so expect some silly pictures in the future.
