Frank's

Frank's Cafe & Campari bar on the 10th floor of peckham carpark (above the Peckham plex cinema) was a highlight of the summer. Half the beauty of the bar was uncovering this gem of a bar. Into the unknown via lifts, up and around winding car park floors, past trendy art folk & experimental sculptures to be greeted by Franks, a bohemian bar with just about everything; Unrivalled views across the city, Wonderful food, a hotpot of local artists and timeout readers who'd followed up the reviews and Campari. Hope it's back next year.

Brixton BMX Track

Always worth a visit to let off some steam. prob knacker up your trendy fixed wheel road bike though. After seeing these guys race over the summer, I always make a point of getting a lap in, on the way to work in Battersea.  Good Bumps and Jumps.

Island Life...

My good breadbins at Nissan gave me a pair of tickets to see "Island Life" at Shepherds Bush Empire...... The line up was reggae-tastic; Sly & Robbie playing their spacey dub reggae, Bob Marley, Aswad, Tinchy Stryder, and Grace Jones who was sporting what looked like a disco ball chadelier on her bonce. No change there. Twas a spot on night, and a reminder that island records was and still is an innovative music label and philosphy.

I twittered from the gig (see below).

Knowles Park, Trust.

We jumped in a streetcar & headed for Knole park a beautiful national trust site in Kent, about an hour away from ED. Wild deer roam free (as well as a few excited Mascarenhas Dog's that let loose).
We played hot potato, had a BBQ & generally had a rather slendid time. It was a reminder that the South East really is a beautiful place to explore. So if you feel a like escaping the ED bubble, Knowles is a good bet for a purposeful stroll or a family retreat.

Scarey Wolf Sculpture, Denmark Hill

You can't really miss Wolfy as you speed walk for your train in the morning. Really weird. Wolfy adds a sinister edge to my everyday commute.I personally think we should dress them up and put wigs on them and that.

Brixton Pound

Lovely idea here. Brixton are trialing their own "Brixton Pound", creating a local currency that can only be used in Brixton. The idea is to show support for local businesses. Not sure if it'll take off, but i'd like to think it will. Maybe there'll be an ED Mark or a Peckham Pound soon?
