Northcote Road, Battersea
A new café opened up on Northcote Road. It’s one of these generic pretend French ones with a name that is already forgotten (at tim elf writing, I actually think it has already closed down – probably out of sheer blandness). The best bit about it is the street view. From this side of the road, near the Battersea Rise end, you can see quite far up the road. I think it is actually my only drawing looking South on Northcote Road.
There’s scaffolding on the Co op, and that’s Wakehurst Road church in the distance. I’d always thought it lost its spire in the war, but recently learned it was taken down in the early 70s because slates were sliding off!

Aftershave Dave (nightclub bouncer, Edinburgh)
I was actually sat having a drink next door and tentatively stuck my head in the club next door to find out what the smell was. It was the bouncer and his malodorous spray can. The paint was peeling off the door frame.
The Stynx effect… what is it about men wanting to smell like a urinal blue block?
