Embroidering: the truth



Band practice with the Crops at Alaska on Monday. The street's winter wonderland theme is continued across the road from the studio by the Igloo coffee bar, a place that holds much fascination for us. For starters there doesn't appear to be a door - do employees have to climb in through the hatch or were they bricked in years ago and have never come out? Secondly, every surface inside is covered in tin foil. Do they know something we don't?
Met Keith for a birthday pint after rehearsal. He doesn't look too bad for 50, does he?
Rehearsed again tonight, this time with the Bentleys at the house of Joss, where Kate showed us some of her excellent embroidery, which may very well be the new rock and roll. She's got an exhibition on in Upper Street that I solemnly urge you to visit.

I think they give the gay sharks food first, then they leave the little fish alone, quite pathetic tho' would be much more popular as an attraction if you could go and see the sharks rip all the other fish to pieces! One Great White would sort that pond out....
