Scratch

Here you will find older scratches, musings and other detritus that once were located on the front pages, but have now faded.

Filed away here to collect dust and cobwwwebs in perpetuity, links may break, facts may change and data may corrupt.

On occasion I may come down here to tidy, but for the most, I prefer to leave the past where it lies.

Its Ok. Its Camden

Earlier today I had to go across London for work and on the way back I stopped off at Camden as I had some bits to pick up. Now whilst I don't mind the tube, I wouldn't say its in my top 10 of places to spend time in, and certainly in the interests of personal survival not somewhere I would care to share both intimate time and flesh with it. Its not the cleanest of places, what with the dirt, dustand detritus of everyday life, and thats before the world and his dog has wiped any number of biological excretions on pretty much every surface imaginable. And then some.

Now, I understand that Camden has an eclectic mix of people and draws people from lots of disparate places together. One such individual as we were walking along the platform walked up to a poster for The Other Boleyn Girl and proceeded to lick Scarlett_Johansen's face before uttering 'If you and Natalie [Portman] play your cards right you could have me' to which the young girl next to me quietly said to her rather astonished friend 'Its ok. Its Camden. People do that here.'

Presumably not after catching something like tetanus or ebola.
