Just Another Inch Before Bed

With Ed at the theatre in Shaftesbury Avenue several times a week I often find myself with an hour or two to kill in Covent Garden. My latest and current favourite discovery is Blackout - a vintage shop stuffed full of ball gowns, dresses, handbags, shoes, scarves and jewellery from the 1920s to the 1980s. They have a nice selection of ties and cravats too: handy if you know anyone partial to a bit of fancy neckwear....
On Saturday night we went to a lovely party on Lordship Park and the new tie was just the thing. Shame we had to leave sensibly early as Ed had a tap exam today but we not so sensibly carried on the party at home...

Have you ever tried sitting in a dance studio for two hours with a thumping hangover while a group of teenagers warm up for a tap exam?
