London continues to sizzle in its heatwave and cycle shops have reported fantastic sales figures since last Thursday. I’ve not been on the tube since ‘then’ but that’s only because of the weather.
Our trip to NYC and the current hot-spell have made us re-evaluate our plans to attend Gay Days at Disney World next June as the heat makes us cranky. Anyway, how could Disney World get any gayer than it already is?
I’m going to Blackpool this Saturday for a week by the sea (cue drastic weather change) but Darren can’t make it till next weekend so just me and the dog till then.
The two-minute silence was well observed in London. The whole of Victoria Street came to a standstill, traffic stopped, pedestrians stopped, shops closed their doors and thousands of office workers stood on steaming pavements silently smoking their ciggies while wondering what to buy for lunch.
Darren was on a tube train yesterday and the lady sitting opposite him suddenly stood up, turned to face the windows, knelt on her seat and began chanting and praying in Arabic. Her fellow passengers looked at each other uneasily and politely waited for the big bang. There was none and she got off a few stations later. Religious tolerance eh. We’ll show ‘em!
