[peterkro]

Big crowd yet?

No but it seems to be the topic of conversation.

No but it seems to be the topic of conversation.

I'm guessing the crowds are just itching to get out of work, pile into buses, trains and tubes and get down to the pub/the square.

Everyone please take photos, so I can go vicariously through the power of the internet, as our 2 and a half week old daughter means that we can't go.

 

[Schmetterling]

I suffer from social phobia and GAD, I'd kill to be there

beyond me too atm, gutted tbf.

Would be lovely to have an area clearly marked: For Shy People so we could just stand there starting awkwardly at one another without having to feel awkward about it. No fears about laughing faaaaaar too loudly! Or wracking out brain for somethign to say or finding ourselves having the same conversation over and over again.

I just would mind missing some of the atmosphere because that, for sure, must be electric.

 

[wayward bob]

i'm not exactly shy tbf but alcohol + loads of people = bad idea atm.

 

[TruXta]

I can't take it anymore, cunting off work and hopping on the bus in 5.

I am on my way to Brixton where I will raise a warm ale to my northern ancestors who had their lives, heritage and futures destroyed by that evil, dead woman.

Briefly considered coming to this, but decided of rather stay in Deptford than cycle six miles to dance to Citizen Fish with crusty punks and dogs on strings drinking k

[keithy]

I might come later. In all senses of the word.

Huh?

 

[editor]

I'm going to be there in 20 mins. Anyone there yet?

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Huh?

I haven't seen a crusty punk with a dog on a string for years. Where are they hiding now? Pretty sure it's not Brixton.

Was deserted an hour ago when I went past on the bus.

That might be something to do with the fact that it wasn't supposed to start until 10 minutes ago.

I saw a bunch on Saturday night! They haven't moved on since the 90s (or 70s even)

Looks like the constabulary are fans of this site. There's a bunch of community warden police chaps stood outside Ritzy who look like they are there in response to 'credible intelligence' and little else occurring.

I've had a look very sparse three community police and a bobby plus two guys who look like reporters.I'm back in the Albert,it's not like anything in Brixton ever started on time.

 

[TruXta]

Noticed a few more people than usual on the square. I'll be down in 15 minutes or so.

Oh god, there's a Thatcher is Dead street party in Brixton. Mostly attended by journalists so far, I think. I'll avoid that then.
