#THESHELLGAME: I love watching this classic street short-con, seen guys take ten minutes to make £300 from unsuspecting marks. Cups-and-balls-with-shills-and-cheating, I admire what you can do with a rug, a box and three matchboxes, all completely innocent, officer. TOP TIP: if you ever see a guy holding the cash, it’s because it helps to hide the sleight-of-hand - a magician mate explained this to me. #london #shortcon #streetgambling #bricklane

#BLACKMANSSHOES: sad to report that the shop is no longer operating - they refused to sell online for decades but have had to capitulate and finally switched from store to website. Cheshire Street has been scrubbed up nicely, been a long time since MME Motorcycles operated out of a poky garage in Grimsby Street, or a Ukulele Shop could find it more affordable than Hanbury Street… #london #bricklane

#OMNIFARIOUS: the @southbankcentre has been a favourite spot of mine for decades, and despite being busier than ever, they have retained the openness to the public that they’ve always had. The large mirrors on the lower floor attract practicing dancers; nooks, crannies, expanses - spaces for everyone to hang out. It’s hardly a well-kept-secret, but there are few buildings anywhere which let you feel part of something bigger while you do your thing.

#TIRED: the nephew is a busy man, working his day job and his startup as you should in your early twenties. And keeping on top of his family responsibilities as the eldest… #family #genz
