Product Placement

I was covering an event for the Ham & High newspaper at the weekend, and found myself standing on Hampstead High St, chomping through something delicious from Gail's, while the Bethnal Green Big Band blasted and trumpeted their way through the hits on Oriel Place. After a month away, and a week or so getting back into the swing of  things the message on this balloon seemed to sum up the moment very well.
Not that I've been entirely idle you understand, and since my return have had the pleasure of brushing quite nearby the actual shoulders of, amongst others, Nick Ross (interesting new book on crime), illustrator Denise Doran, the Marc Bolan Fan Club, there were theatrical exploits with Steven Berkoff, I photographed the photographer Dorothy Bohm and hung with the nice people at Camden Arts Centre.
