Mandi Lennard and I off to Kim Howells birthday

Dear Shaded Viewers,

Mandi is my fairy godmother here, she is taking great care of me. She picked me up at the train, I had been in a bit of panic about the thought of being in the Olympic games sports crowd but in fact, so far, the streets are as empty as the film 28 days after. I think people are afraid to leave their house. Of course tomorrow is Monday and it might be a whole different game.

I had not been to Zandra's for years, not since I interviewed her for my site.
