Hello! I forgot my password so I haven't been online in quite a while (didn't think about looking for a "forgot password" button once. Thanks for that, brain.)
Anyways I've been to London (finally!!) from 6th til 13th of May and I had the best time ever! Our hotel was in Camden which was perfect (for obvious reasons) and I was walking around there every single morning haha. I went to the Hawley Arms and saw all the Amy memories on the shelf over the bar (or however it's called) and the signed picture of her they put up. And when I went to the toilet there were "R.I.P" messages to Amy written ALL over the walls. It made me tear up. I also went to the Good Mixer but didn't go in cause it was packed. Was sad about that cause I really wanted to play pool there ;(
We were going to Amys old houses the first day, Prowse Place, Jeffrey's Place and Camden Square (needed 2hrs and lots of peoples help to find it) and I felt like such a stalker but at the same time very close to Amy if that makes sense?
On one day we made an "Amy day" where we went to the cemetery (so hard to find!) and when we got there I saw part of the grave and said to my friend "Oh god I'm gonna cry oh god" and then we walked over to the grave and I literally broke down. Luckily no one else was there. I was even talking to her saying how much I miss her and stuff. It was really very emotional.
Later on we went to Jazz After Dark and Sam Shaker sat down with us and he was showing me Amys place where she used to sit with a bottle of Vodka and write songs. He told me so much about Amy and also his art. He's so kind! I was also showing him my drawings and he liked them. He also invited us to come see a band that was supposed to perform later that night and he wrote us on the guestlist. He also told me Mitch wanted to come and I should really meet him but he didn't come.
So when we got back to Jazz After Dark for the little gig I got so drunk on 3 Jack Daniels + Coke (which is my favourite drink haha) and 3 of the Back To Black drinks. I've read on here that some of you have tried it and to the people who haven't: If you go there someday you HAVE to try it, it's so good! It's a miracle that I made it home safe after those drinks. I didn't see Sam when we got there but later he just popped up out of nowhere and asked me how to use Twitter, it was so funny! It was a great evening and the band was really good! We came back the next day and the barmaid remembered us from our drinks which was funny, too.
I also saw so much streetart of Amy, like the crepes truck and stuff like that.
I don't wanna make this post too long (that's also why I tried to not make it so detailed) so I'm gonna end it here. Let me know if you wanna see pictures!
Have a nice day/ morning/ evening /night wherever you are
Oh I also got an Amy tattoo on my left arm, it looks amazing
