I think the bar called Legal is the most hip and happening place. I’ve only stopped by very briefly on one occasion but one of my favourite bands (Razika) keep mentioning it in songs and stuff

is that opposite Garage?

#128

I think there’s more in departures

@Severed799: I do not remember, due to being drunk. I’m sure it’s not far, anyway.

tbh I wasn’t really expecting a flag, more just signs in a different language.

I mean I OBVIOUSLY deserve all the accolades I can get but what’s this for? Just a freebee from sean for general nice postness?

Finally got my fucking boiler fucking fixed. Replaced in fact. Gone from lukewarm water (which infuriatingly cut out, only when running baths) to water that is in fact too hot. It will take some getting used to.

It was in the exhibition- but I didn’t actually see inside today. I was waiting the tables at the dinner for the guests.

I was assigned to the top table- so Tracey Emin, Jay Jopling, rich important art/media people. They were all very polite and pleasant and I’d say actively nice to me, but it still made me feel weirdly angry in a diffuse way. Especially when Nick Serota was mentioned in a positive light in one of the speeches. (The guy who was until recently head of the Tate-he casualised and minumum waged his employees, and then when he left had the cheek to ask them for a whip-around to buy him a yacht, which caused quite a lot of rage).

Like this is a room full of the people whose decisions keep jobs in galleries and museums minimum wage and insecure, and make sure the path to higher positions is solely through unpaid internships and nepotism. The people who keep the art world closed off and inaccessible.

I also heard them bitching about the corporation tax in the UK being too high. (The UK has one of the lowest around).
