herne hill - absolutely ramses the grated. musta been over 200 odd people tops when we got there around midday. fuck all security at either end controlling access and wall to wall with the prams and peronis crowd loving it up all over the shop with hardly a mask in sight and all chatting an inch away from each other's faces. guess covid is cured guys! lets all yolo!
