Happy birthday to me!
I buried this in a previous post, but reckon I should give it its own entry.
I'm having a birthday party next Friday at the Waterloo Bar & Kitchen, which is dead easy to get to by tube or bus if you live in London.
If you come by tube, take the Northern, Jubilee, Waterloo & City or Bakerloo line to Waterloo. Leave the station (Old Vic exit), turn right and walk 200 yards past. Use the traffic lights at the crossroads to cross Baylis Road and Waterloo Road and bingo! it's behind the Old Vic, or beside it, depending on your perspective.
If you come by bus, the 1, 4, 26, 176, 188 and probably several others all drop you outside the restaurant one stop after Waterloo, so it's a doddle to find the place.
Otherwise you could take a taxi, or it's a 25 minute walk from Soho Square and about ten minutes from the Strand across Waterloo Bridge.
Naturally all three of my avid readers are welcome to come along. Do send me an email at dom (at) dompannell.com if you're planning to turn up as I'm paying for food for my guests, generous lad that I am. You can buy your own booze, 'cos I'm not stupid.
If you're interested in how old I am, I'm 21 on the 21st of October every year, which is handy, 'cos it means I don't forget my age.
I was given an iPod and one of those clever record players that allow you to save music to MP3 format.
Over the coming weeks, I plan to be spending an inordinate length of time reminiscing about my youth as I transfer my LP collection across. Jesus & Mary Chain, here I come!
