Happy Monday. I just realised it’s a bank holiday weekend so i’m in a great mood!! Everyone is seemingly gagging for the old reality of pubs, clubs and culture but I wonder. How long will it be until people start saying ‘i wish I was still working from home’ will there be a time where we refer to this as ‘the good old days’?

The first conversation I had today (at 7:15am) I was asked ‘what did you do this weekend? Were you out there with the rest of them causing a riot?’ ‘It was one psychopath, women kill too.’ What a sad little life Jane, You ruined my night completely so you could have the money I hope you spend it on Lessons in Grace & decorum because you have the grace of a reversing dump truck without any tyres on.

I power walked from Trafalgar Square to Stockwell in 30 minutes and I MADE IT!

One of my favourite interactions this morning was with a young boy who trotted up to the counter looked me dead in the eyes and said ‘i’d like a baguette, not a sandwich, not toast, not butter, I just want a baguette.’ He knew exactly what he wanted, no messing around, straight to the point. Respect.

Other than the junkies at the station, Camden was a ghost town. I haven’t been to Camden since its gentrification and its just weird. Everything is picture perfect, there’s no grunge, edginess or flavor. Its all bubble waffles and halloumi fries! However there was music playing really loudly in the covered market so I did have a dance break, I assume they now have CCTV so to the security working the night shift…you’re welcome.
