FRI 4th JUNE : BACK IN TOWN

Wake up in a sweat in Crouch End, locked in, have to knock on the door upstairs. Drop bag off in Kings Cross, more police on the street I see. Down to Tower Bridge for lunch, pass huge queue for London Dungeons. On the water front my brother and I wait for service and we discuss New York, rock climbing and his pull at a camp site at the weekend. Back at his work we see an old friend still dressing like a Chinese monk.

Up to Oxford Street, announcement in Italian on the tube. Gilbert & George outside Bond St tube, semi-famous TV chef outside Debenhams. Yellow 3 wheel car promoting Maloney for the Euro vote. Have a coffee with old friend. Hangover's losing its edge now.

Look at a few shops and wonder why. Don't I live in New York? Collect bag from Kings Cross, less trouble hanging around I see, tube over to Paddington. Haircut with Lee then a pint with him to finish off our chat. Another brother turns up and blinds us with the fabric he's used on a shoe he's made.

Over to the Cow to see old friends. 'Come here often?' I ask Dom, 'Far too much' he replies. Squeeze in for a few beers. Nights are nice and light. B talks about her firend's baby. Si drinks water... Round the corner for a beer and tappas at that place that used to be a private members bar. Back home to Dom & B's for early night as they've run out of booze.

At 3am the light is switched on and I hear B calling out for Dom. I look down to see a foot poking up. Somehow he's got in bed with me! Head to toe. Head to toe, of course.
