\nWell Mod and Ian, I’m sorry I blew you out today (ooh err and so forth). Last night I rang my parents and Stella told me she’d already started defrosting the lamb – so a curry was out. I really fancied Brick Lane too – I promise I’ll be less crap from now on. It’s not just because I didn’t relish the idea of my parents wasting a lump of perfectly good lamb – it was also because I fucking love<\/i> roast lamb – and it was so, so good. Really muttony – just how I like it.<\/p>\n
During the day we went to the Brockley Nature reserve open-day. Many people don’t realise that Brockley has a nature reserve – even fewer know it has two. We went to the larger one, off Vesta road by the railway embankment. It was the usual collection of well-meaning middle class people with their kids, making tea for everyone, organising nature trails for the kids and generally being nice<\/i>. I loved it \ud83d\ude42 Yes Christina Aguilera. It’s just that one song: Beautiful. Honest. I don’t know why – I just love it. My sister should listen to it.

Michele and I sat in the “main glade” with all of the other local Guardian readers and their offspring, who were much more interested in doing the nature-trail than listening to singing… One of the blokes was wearing a home-made CRASS t-shirt \ud83d\ude42
\nAll in all a very enjoyable weekend and I even got some time to put up some pics of Humphrey<\/a> and an arty-remix<\/a> of Brodie’s birthday.
\nWork tomorrow doesnt even seem that bad – I might take half the day off and go down to Dorking \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
