And a squirrel wedged between the fork crown and the wheel?

how did you guess?

(actually, no)

Yeah! Good to see you dude!

Curly ginger* girl on a green bob, waiting to cross Park Lane. A beacon of foruminity within the miasma of dayglo.

Would have said Hai, but needed to avoid being run over by all the police cars in a hurry.

*Not racist

^ LaT4NY4eesha?

O hai!
'Twas indeed I.
Say hi next time! - I never see anyone on my commute :(

london's famous JAMIE at Shepherd's Bush Empire yesterday for the Wild Beasts gig. nice to bump into you mate, and the gig was pretty good.

Good seeing you, mate.

I think I spotted you in The Cock a few hours ago!
xxx

I was indeed in The Cock with Jayloo!
Where/who were you?

Critical Mass douchery just past Hyde Park Corner, 20 minutes ago.

glad i got the fuck out of town early this evening in that case

Spotted Mark Steel wandering down Regent St. whilst in a mad crush out crimbo shopping..

Has been bloody ages since I've walked around anywhere near Oxford st. I also remembered why I hate the tube.

Oh i forgot to say that i spotted Vic Reeves crossing euston road yesterday. i wanted to say something witty as i was stood next to him for a few minutes waiting to cross.

Didnt think of anything. stayed stum

Oooh that reminds me I think Rob Brydon crossed over Piccadilly in front of me last week, I was so absorbed in staring at him trying to work out if it was him or not that I didn't even smile. It made me think that it must be annoying to be a bit famous but have a slightly generic face.

Also on the Tweed Run recce we stood outside Richard Rogers' house and saw him go past a window a few times.

Are you marshalling tomorrow?

Yah man

Cool. ill be there making life hard for all the marshals

Splinter group!

Critical Mass douchery just past Hyde Park Corner, 20 minutes ago.

I followed a small group up towards Waterloo Bridge earlier one dick with a trailer with terrible music playing, jumping reds, cutting up traffic and generally annoying motorists I assume they were heading towards that.

Hardly doing much for the positive image of people who cycle.

I was on a brompton this morning, you sure it wasn't me?

Sure! No brompton, looked fixed (was on the other side of the bridge, so didn't see much else of the bike).

Followed a guy on a dark blue bike with blue rims through stoke newington this afternoon, saddle looked pretty low, rather your knees than mine! heh.

Saw a few other people on my way home, but was too tired/headwind battered to take enough notice.

Nice to see you on London Bridge Mrs Socks, that headwind was fierce

Got DASed yesterday while finishing my beer at Newington Gardens, surely someone from here?

haz many rob brydon stories. until i moved recently he lived just down the road from me. queued up in the post office in front of him a couple of times. when i was working at latitude this year i picked up david o doherty in ma golf buggy and then we had to stop and let rob in. they started singing frank sinatra. was pretty surreal.

just a nugget of my many shit rob brydon stories.
