Went up to town today for a bit of shopping. Took one look at the wall of rucksacks in the tube station and decided to walk from Victoria to the West End (nice little stroll past St James’s Park and the Admiralty, etc.). Then at Forbidden Planet there was a huge queue ‘cos Simon Pegg was doing a signing, but they’d put the queue out the back so it didn’t interfere much at all with normal shopping (well what passes for normal in FP). But if the queue for Simon Pegg was as long as the one I saw today I dread to think how long the queue will be next week when Neil Gaiman is signing…
I nearly made it out of FP with wallet intact. Then I saw something that I had to have. So I spent £25 on a tee-shirt. Gulp. So, quick quiz. Who can guess what’s in the tee-shirt?
Lettice is out doing karaoke tonight so I’m home on my home listening and sometimes watching the fireworks. We’re nice and high up so I can see loads of displays. Tomorrow is the big display at Crystal Palace and I hope we get a good view of that as well.
