20 July - Rain

So, er, I have avoided festivals. But there's a mini event not far in Victoria Park, the Time Out weekender, so I thought why not? Ok, no ticket has been purchased yet though friend is on the case but have you looked outside? For those of you not in London it is the colour of Seattle, Iceland, Siberia and so on in Winter, with rain to add to the excitement. It's hopeless. Just as well we went to Shoreditch Soho House last Friday and not today. Back then, it wasn't hot but it was sunny, we were raving about the open air top floor pool. Sooooo LA, dahling, and throbbing with guests posing around it well into the evening. We felt the breeze, we scouted for boys (on behalf of my adorable gay macho man from Spain and his man hungry mezzo soprano friend, also from Spain and lamenting how hard it is to find a 'man beyond just having sex' here. I wanted to prove her wrong and help with some introductions but the SSH aficionados were into their little groups and not prepared to extend welcome.

Me, the BF and mezzo soprano shared a taxi home as she lives a few streets away from me. However, he has made it known I should not make any overtures to her for three way sex as he doesn't fancy her. Neither do I as it happens and there was nothing in my behaviour to lead him to such thoughts. Though I suspect it's her stories about men on viagra and their 5/6 times a night that may have make him come over a bit shy. It is a bit much to live up to at our age and he prefers no chemical aids, hence that frequency is simply unattainable.

Back to the weather... am also invited tomorrow to rooftop filming of pop video in Camden, wher else, for band who I predict will be bigger than Coldplay. No, not mentioning names now so if prediction is wrong I won't lose face. Had already planned outfit to stand out in the background in case crowd scene was required, but I'll be lucky to be seen under huge umbrella. Quelle shame.
