Mood: energetic
Now Playing: Anything sung by anyone from Eastenders
Sorry for the late update today, I was so hyper after sinking what must have been about seventeen cups of coffee in Starbucks yesterday that I needed something to burn some of the energy off.
To do that I decided to take a trip down the Edgware Road - the part where all the Arabs hang out - and see if I could generate a little bit of action down there by cycling up and down waving an Israeli flag. Sadly I got stuck behind a tractor being driven by some geezer wearing an Ipswich shirt, and by the time I got up to Tower Bridge my enthusiasm had worn off a little, plus I'd realised that in all the excitement I'd packed a Welsh flag and not an Israeli one.
Anyway I didn't get home until late (about 9 pm) and sat there twiddling the knobs on the radio until I fell asleep. Nothing interesting on there either, it really is a slow time of year.
Brick Lane was nice and quiet this morning too, the Christmas rush is well and truly over so with my Bagels in my saddlebag I thought I'd take a trip down memory lane and check out a few of the places me, Ronnie and Reggie would hang about in. There's the Blind Beggar of course which I notice now has railings outside where you can chain up your bike. Why they didn't have them all those years ago I've no idea. Maybe there's more thieves about. The billiard hall in Mile End has long gone, replaced by a mosque or something, I should remember that.
So today I'm going to laze about, I sure won't be visiting Starbucks for a while, not if that's the effect coffee is going to have on me, plus I had to make so many trips to the bog it's unreal.
Shalom
