Alice doesn't live here anymore
We went to see Broadcast last night, really good gig preceded by the worst support band in the world, Tralala.
They were like a cross between Josie and The Pussycats, Spiceworld and Coyote Ugly. But Broadcast were good.

Here's a faraway blurry pic of them:

We had a few more drinks, about 8 gin and tonics later and then got a cab home:

Got home and couldn't get in the door. The locks had been changed.

So Toby climbed up the rusty shopfront and went across a ledge then pulled his whole body weight (not much) up to the window and let us in. We packed our bags -bear in mind this was two in the morning; and slept in our clothes in the same flea-ridden bed in the front room. Sam packed away her money and all our passports under her jumper. Thats hobo-life Sam for ya, always checking her emergency exits before settling down to sleep using her knapsack as a pillow.
Anyway we woke up after about four hours sleep and phoned Toby's uncle and went and called a cab to his house in West Harlem. We luckily managed to find a gorgeous flat today with front room and bedroom, internet phone and TV. Yay!!!
So our address is no longer 87 Kent St it is now 148 2a, 111th St, Manhattan.

They changed the locks!!
I managed to slide my skinny arm in the letterbox to open the front door. We went upstairs feeling a bit panicky to find that the inside door's lock had been changed and there was this notice taped to the front door:
