Fleeting glances

To the Roundhouse last night to see Fleet Foxes, well to be honest I didn't see much of them because it was a complete sell out and I had standing tickets so for the business end of the concert I was staring and being rammed by other people's business ends. They were exceptionally good and a finer live sound I have never heard - except Eddi Reader of course.
As it was the hottest ticket in town last night I expected a few celebs to be peppered in the audience. The only two I saw however was the Times tv critic Caitlin Moran and BBC regional news presenter Mike Ramsden it was hardly the brace I had in mind, no rubbing shoulders with Marianne Faithful cradling a slimline tonic for me.
I was a very lucky girl leaving the gig however, I was caught by the cops for a misdemeanor in Regents Park. I was let go with a slap on the wrist - after a rubber gloved search - and am left now with a lasting impression and nothing but admiration for the police.
