I WAS ROBBED

HOUSE OF WINGS, originally uploaded by Lektrogirl.

Last night on Kingsland Road on my way from 333 to The Korsan Bar to welcome my friend Phil to London, I was 'mugged' by two 'youths' in 'sportswear' who legged it off into a nearby estate. Luckily for me, Alex T - the sub-editor of this blog [my hero] was there to save me and allowed me to call the cops on his phone, search through some skips to see if the bag had been dumped. Not as lucky as the time my Marni bag got nicked. But two kind of dorky hot cops arrived in their patrol car to take my statement within minutes of me reporting the incident. They were super friendly and nice and I even got to use the super cops phone and they sorted out all my network provider business for my phone etc.

So I had stolen
1 Jas MB patent leather clutch bag [Sorry Dal - when the guy grabbed it I just let it go. I didn't fancy a shanking.]
1 Prada wallet which was the first posh thing I bought for myself when I came to London
1 all the money I had in the world [not a lot anyway]
1 Christian Dior 'Indian Rouge' Lipstick that was MY COLOUR and in the old blue/blue packaging
1 MAC compact [which I only used for the mirror]
1 Sonia Rykiel Bijoux Keyring of a little girl which were limited edition and sold out almost immediately that was a present from Max and Pippa
1 lucky $1 from my old ex Daniel De Jong which I had kept til this day cause he had given it to me to wish me luck
1 Nokia E61 mobile phone that I hated that doesnt work properly anyway except for checking emails and blogging - as a phone it is useless SO HA HA that Paul had chosen for me
1 Sony super incredible amazing Flickr Friendly camera that was my whole life with X-Girl lanyard that was a present from Max in LA

But on the upside, I got into The Korsan Bar for free and saw Bangkok Impact play. He was pretty good - but not as good as his records I have to admit. I really regret not seeing Legowelt when he was there.

So yeah - a few bruises to show for it - but I WAS ROBBED.

Also now that House of Wings has closed down and I look at the picture above, I was robbed. I so want that right now.

The Cardinal was a dream and let me sleep on her sofa last night and cooked me eggs and salmon for breakfast while we waited for someone to unlock my house for me. So grateful!

I have so much stuff to say but I feel totally deflated after last night.

Maybe when I have mourned the loss of my photos that were on the camera I will be able to be more chirpy.

Anyway - Facebook / Myspace / Email me your numbers again - I don't have them any more!
