A full-on urban75 weekend!<\/strong>
\nSorry for the delay in getting this up, but things have been a tad hectic…<\/p>\n

On Friday, we got delightfully smashed at How Does It Feel To Be Loved<\/a> at the Canterbury Arms, Brixton. I shook a leg in an incoherent manner to several tunes and talked nonsense to anyone within earshot.<\/p>\n

\"picnic\"<\/p>\n

On Saturday, we grabbed a coffee at the The Lounge in Atlantic Road, Brixton<\/a> before getting on a hideously hot bus to East Dulwich and on to the urban75 picnic<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The location was fabulous, affording a superb – nay unequalled! – panoramic view across London<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It’s a tough spot to find though, going under various names: Dawson’s Hill, Dawson’s Heights and Ladlands and this lovely piece of green doesn’t even show up on the A-Z!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The weather was glorious, the food over-flowing and the company delightful and we all got slowly drunk as the sun set over London.<\/p>\n

Things got a little messy after that. We needed to find a local pub, so while I was on the phone to a mate trying to find where Gooodrich Road was, three of our party got out their A-Zs.<\/p>\n

Much frantic searching followed, with the A-Zs being passed around from one baffled viewer to the next. And then a cry: “I got it I got it I got it! It’s there.”<\/p>\n

Three steps further on we saw the street name. Goodrich Road! Ooops!<\/p>\n

It was downhill all the way after that. We went to the Crystal Palace with some of us half watching the football while others sought more chemical based entertainment.<\/p>\n

The exchange I witnessed between a ‘tired and emotional’ Jezza and some even more tired and emotional Greek bloke was priceless:<\/p>\n

Jezza: Did youzzzz seesh the fooshball? (hic)
\nGreek bloke: Don’t call me Barry
\nJezza: I didn’t call you Bazzzzy
\nGreek bloke: Don’t call me Barry
\nJezza stumbles off, tired, emotional and more confused.<\/p>\n

Greek bloke seen puking up in the street later….<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
