Oh Carnival, come back. What a wonderful time we had this weekend...
In our household it's not a special occasion without a decadent start to the day. After a hefty breakfast of french toast, bacon, berries and syrup, we headed out to meet the rest of the carnival crew.
What we were wearing: Hotpants, Michael Kors, stripes (love how you can rely on trendy boys to come out matching these days), American Apparel, BUM BAGS.
What we weren’t wearing but wished we were: feathers,
glittery hats, Ed Hardy, string vests, camoflage… a boat
What we were eating: Jerk chicken from the Portabello
flyover, plantain, dumplings, roti, rice and peas.
What we were listening to: Norman Jay at Good Times sound
system, Glady Wax, Latin Rave street jam, Mayhem Crew rave.

What we were drinking: Saul’s special Tequila Corralejo.
Straight with a slice of lime. Other than that, Red Stripe is the order of the
day.
Where we were walking: who knows, but it looked like this:
Where we danced after. This year we went back to Camden to the Lock Tav for our post-carnival night on the tiles, but it changes every year. Last year we were at Notting Hill Arts club. I'll be sure to post in advance for next.
As Mo Farah said: M is for memories. Good bye carnival. I wish you could be every weekend or at least a the end of every month.
