PXP Venue Sneek Peek
Wonder what the venue for the next Project X Presents show looks like before the madness starts? You do! Fantastic. We had the second of two visits to the venue last Wednesday and have sorted out some of the arrangements whilst there. Theres going to be two rooms with our guests entering through the smaller downstairs “chill out” space then moving up to the main room. Dave Moore who is the appointed geezer in charge of the venue and one of our ace soundmen showed us around and even let us have a mooch in the beer store, mind you we were only looking at the electricity supply (Honest guv).
I’ve uploaded some photos from the first visit to my gallery here …

Buying a Brompton
After a breif hiatus I thought I ought to say something here. For once Iv’e not been off the air due to the lack of activity but instead of the complete and utter overpresence of activity. Oh yes I have been a busy boy.
The most important thing happening now is the fact that after years of lusting after one I have recently ordered a Brompton M6R in Jaffa Orange from Avon Valley Cyclery. The little British made folding bike is setting me back a few sheckles but is being subsidised by my employers bike to work scheme.
I’m hoping that it will arrive in time to take to Switzerland with me in August. Would be quite nice for nipping from the campsite to the cafe and bar of an evening or just chasing the Scouts around. I’m planning to use it to get to the Gilwell reunion this year in a monster Folding Bike, Coach, Folding Bike, Train, Folding Bike travel marathon instead of renting a car as usual, plus i’ll be able to ride around the site and nip to the shops with ease (the parking at Gilwell is a nightmare).
