Crawling round a few pubs

Our mini old st pub crawl actually started in Bradleys Spanish Bar. Every Fringey night out appears to begin in Bradleys. This is not a bad thing, but it isn't anywhere near Shoreditch. (Coincidentally the lovely Julian from the Mighty Boosh was there also.)

We arrive in Shoreditch at 'homeless feeding time' - lovely. Avoiding the tramps wrapped in their blankets (and smelling faintly of wee and soup - - - - them not us!), we finally make it to the Reliance, which used to be good, honest. - We wanted haircuts and hats, and the Reliance was offering us Harriets with highlights! It had all gone a bit posho townie. No ta.

So was off to the Brickie Arms, we weren't taking any chances, there would be asymmetric hair there - oh yes. Pity about it being a friday evening and completely rammed though. Luce made friends with a local, we picked up a few strays and left. Finally ending up in the Mother Bar. It looks good, but just ... ... ... isn't.

Sorry kids, but Old Street is over. Especially now the Queens of Noize have taken up residence at the 333 downstairs. I had been told this many times, but now I’ve seen it with my very own eyes. (We did spot the pocket sized singing chappie from Komakino wandering around though.)

Need to find somewhere else to go of a Friday evening.
Any suggestions?
