London Madness New Year 2004/2005

So I went on a 4 day bender in London at New Year.... and some stuff happened... including games at Squid's, the goth sluts meet, shopping in Camden, Slimelight at NYE and Tom's birthday party.... utterly failed to get photos of the other clubbing mission.

Yes... Robin's manners are a bit laffable ;P

A common breed the lounge dwelling goth

Matilda not so good with the ninja style sneaking
UK0405 080.jpg
Ranting and disdainful with fag in hand... soooo surprising.
UK0405 082.jpg
So I walked from King's Cross to Camden and stopped to take stock of where I was only to realise I was in front of a very familiar apartment block...
UK0405 083.jpg
And then I ran into Sharon on the high street... eating dangerous Camden stir fry
UK0405 084.jpg
What in fuck are they doing to The Stables? It makes me cry!!
UK0405 085.jpg
More travesty

High street views

And tourist crowds trying to work out why the market their guide book recommended so well is full of freaks.

The World's End ... "I called him a ponce and now I'm callin' you one... PONCE"

The Bitching is Back: Richard and I do Slimes together yet again
UK0405 101.jpg
Avalon and I, firmly convinced that we're alternative universe versions of each other. Loud, bitchy, geeky, Australian gothlings in London Towne.
UK0405 102.jpg
Nothing like a gaggle of cyber gals to keep me happy
UK0405 103.jpg
From "Hey you sold me shoes today" to spending half of NYE pottering around muntered in a club... I really have no problem with strangers *chuckle*
UK0405 104.jpg
A fair attempt to photograph what I look like in Blacklight
