New York Dolls


Last night, Leo, Brian and I saw the New York Dolls in concert at the Royal Festival Hall. The band is from the 1970s, but those guys can still rock hard! The crowd loved them, including the three of us. The lead singer looked a lot like Mick Jagger and Steve Tyler. Bet he hates being compared to them all the time.

Today Abigail and I went for a run on Hampstead Heath. We had a peek in at the Lido. Neither of us had actually ever seen it before. It is gorgeous! 60 meters long and hardly anyone in it. Ice cold though.

In the evening, Brian and I went to a 30-year wedding aniversary party for one of our co-workers, John. John's 82-year-old mother was there and I got to dance with her. And this was rock and roll dancing! Very cute. She was still there and going strong when Brian and I had to run for the last train at 11:30pm.

Tomorrow morning Claudia and I will do 5 laps around the outside of Regents park on our bikes. Triathlon training. In the evening it's Russian Gala evening at the Royal Albert Hall with Brian and Vagelis.
