Just wonder if there were any Griffiti/Art show thing going on.

There's an Adam Neate at Elms Lesters Painting room which just ended on Saturday. Thought someone who's into their graffiti/art scene might know something.

If you want to see some real Graf get your ass down a HOF , not to some poncy art gallery.

Tufnell, Plaistow, Camden, Westbourne they are all over town.

Tamesa - 2nd floor of the Oxo tower on bankside, bar and brasserie. Really nice food, restaurant looks out onto the thames, think they've got a seating area at the far end if you just wanted drinks. went there for lunch a couple of weeks ago, stayed all afternoon Smiling
