overyourhead - some irreverent musings by a gay London guy - crawling though technology, love and life... so you don't have to.
Last night Marcus and I went to the abbasolutely amazing @abbavoyage show in London’s glitzy Pudding Mill Lane. A concert like no other. Hit after hit. We sang, we danced, we laughed, we hugged. Just an amazing spectacle.
And the Swedish cartoons were in fine fettle 🤣
Before the fun kicked off, we both splashed out on the Oceanbird Lounge (£99) for bottomless booze and food. Needless to say, we caned it. Two for the price of one. 🤣

Last night Stuart and I went to see Martin Guerre at The Old Vic in London’s glitzy Waterloo. A reimagining so radical it still can’t rescue this lame duck of a musical. The folk inflections are all very well, but a little musical surgery cannot disguise the underlying problems. From the creators of Les Misérables? Les Mis it ain’t.

It’s that time of year again. First batch of Highbury homemade quince jelly boiled, filtered, sweetened, tasted, jarred up, and labelled.
Goes well with the sloe gin!

It’s that time of year again. First batch of Highbury homemade sloe gin decanted, filtered, sweetened, tasted, & bottled. Second batch infusing. Nice pink colour. Tastes magnificent, if I say so myself. Hic! 😉🤪
And Stuart’s excellent quince jelly was jarred up too.
