Watched #thecritic yesterday. Ian McKellen is deliciously vile in it 😈

A little walk through the St. Matthew’s Estate Bee Road yesterday 🐝 #stmatthewsestate #beeroad #wildflowers #brixton #lambeth

So on Thursday the Lambeth Tour Guides had a private tour of Arthur C. Clarke House, the home of the British Interplanetary Society. It was Out Of This World 🚀 #arthurcclarkehouse #britishinterplanetarysociety #space #lambethtourguides #vauxhall

15 years since the Splash Zone 💦 #kylieminogue

Fabulous to Jessie Ware live and intimate last night with an amazing showcase of her new album. This diva’s voice is big, bold and she’s very funny. Huge thanks to our Val for the tickets 🪭 #jessieware #superbloom #diva #circuit #kingston

Yesterday the incredible new exhibition of Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life In Style opened at the Kings Gallery. Here is her splendid wedding dress from 1947 by Norman Hartnell with it’s original accessories 👑 #queenelizabethii #exhibition #weddingdress #kingsgallery #london

New phone day 📱

Incredible rooftop views of Westminster Cathedral the other day from our aptly named training venue called Cathedral View ⛪️ #westminstercathedral #rooftopviews #cathedralviews #victoria #london

So 7 years ago today I took this picture of this amazing artwork in Brixton Market and I tagged the artist on Instagram. A few years later Jo and I ended up meeting and became firm friends. Just recently she gave me back the image with her added mirror technique and I absolutely love it and her 1/2

Artwork by Jo Gibbs celebrating Brixton artist Pearl Alcock. Jo was inspired to create this after coming on our LGBTQ+ History walk around Brixton last year. The last few tickets remaining for Sunday 19th are on the Lambeth Tour Guides website 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #pearlalcock #jogibbs #lambethtourguides #brixton

Very sad to hear about the death of Adriano Goldschmied, the Godfather of Denim. Worked with his products for many years and the man was a genius. RIP 👖

These are not ordinary Hot Cross Buns. These are Extra Cheesy M&S Hot Cross Buns to which I have added bacon … He Has Risen! Happy Easter Sunday everyone 🐣

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Easter weekend. Some pretty tulips I saw this week 🌷 #tulips #flowers #spring #victoria #london

Clare and I are very honoured to have our upcoming LGBTQ+ Hidden History walk around Brixton featured on Brixton Buzz. You can read the piece I wrote on the link below 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #lgbtq #hiddenhistory #brixtonbuzz #lambethtourguides #brixton

It’s not very often a new pub opens in Brixton so we were very excited to attend the opening party last night of the brand new Ferndale last night by the Urban Pub Group. Much fun was had and we will be back 🍻 #ferndalepub #urbanpub #launchparty #departmentstore #brixton

Went to see #projecthailmary. Didn’t expect to be the Big Bad myself 🤯🚀

Closing event for Jo’s Full Of Beans exhibition last night at Bennington Cafe. I worked the bar whilst @cwhitefield held a Women’s Poetry session 💛 #jogibbs #fullofbeans #exhibition #bonningtoncafe #vauxhall

I do love a wedding. Think S4 of #Bridgerton was the best yet … but then do I always say that? 💖

The incredible Victorian bar Jo has created at the Bonnington Cafe. Remedies for the Relief of Contemporary Complaints. The last event is her Poetry evening tomorrow night 🍸 #jogibbs #victorian #remedies #bonningtoncafe #vauxhall

Star Trek 60 Science Museum Lates 🚀 #startrek60 #sciencemuseum #lates #trekkie #southkensington

Absolutely stunning works of art at the Press Preview of Schiaparelli exhibition at the V&A yesterday. And incredible to think that some of the pieces are almost a hundred years old. A must see 💖 #schiaparelli #exhibition #TheCulturedTraveller #TheCulturedTravelleMagazine #vamuseum

Last week I went to see the model village in Vauxhall Park. These houses all originally sat in Brockwell Park after being gifted by retired engineer Edgar Wilson. In the 1950s Lambeth council decided there were too many in Brockwell so moved some of them to them to Vauxhall 🏠 #vauxhallpark

Next month Clare and I are rerunning our LGBTQ+ Hidden History Walk of Brixton on Sunday 19th April at 12 noon. Come and find out about some of our forgotten queer history or join us and reminisce about key places and events. Further details are on the Lambeth Tour Guides website or link below 1/2

Beans, beers and backgammon. An evening hosted by artist Jo Gibbs 🥫🍺🖼️ #jogibbs #backgammon #brixtonbrewery #bonningtoncafe #vauxhall

Many Happy Returns to my Dear Dad today. I am working so had to dig deep in the archive. Dad in his natural environment in the 80s 🍅 I wonder where I got my moustache inspiration from. Love you 👨🏻 #happybirthday #dad #family #love

On a diet so I made another crumble 🐷

St Matthew’s church has dominated the centre of Brixton for over 200 years. But did you know the church would have looked dramatically different if it wasn’t for the now Hidden River Effra? Come and find out about this and much more on my guided walk next Saturday 28th at 12 noon 1/2

My friend’s incredible cherry blossom 🌸 #cherryblossom #flowers #spring #nature #oval

121 Railton Road was the home of the Sunlight Laundry back in the 1950s. Loving the adverts of the time captured by this image from Lambeth Archives. A few decades later this building was then squatted by the activist Olive Morris who is now recognised with an English Heritage Blue plaque 💙

Glorious day in Vauxhall Park yesterday 🌳 #vauxhallpark #parklife #cityscape #spring #vauxhall

More new art from Jo’s show at Bonnington Cafe this month. True Story, the D Mirror in the first picture is from her artwork Hypernormalized which originally sat in Brixton Market. I took a photo of it and tagged Jo on Instagram and that’s how we became friends! 💛 #jogibbs #bonningtoncafe

So yesterday I binged the entire series of #awomanofsubstance. I really wanted to love it but it was a bit rubbish in places. The sex scenes were so unsexy and it all felt completely over styled to me which seems to be the trend à la Rivals and Wuthering Heights 😬

Lots of happy faces on my last River Effra and the Stink Pipes walk. I will be doing the walk again on Saturday 28th March at 12 noon from Herne Hill Station. Further details on the newly revamped Lambeth Tour Guides website so do have a look 💙 #rivereffra #stinkpipes #guidedwalk #lambethtourguides

Very excited for this. The exhibition of Queen Elizabeth II’s fashion will coincide with what would of been her 100th Birthday 🩵 #queenelizabethii #herstyle #exhibition #kingsgallery #london

Long overdue Sister catch up yesterday and we sampled the roast at the new Prince Regent which was great 🍗 #sisters #roast #sundayfunday #princeregent #hernehill

When Jo told me we were eating vegetarian I must admit I was a little underwhelmed but this meal was absolutely incredible. Bravo to the Bonnington Cafe and chef Amer Raawan. So delicious 🤤 #vegeterian #bonningtoncafe #delicious #food #vauxhall

Can-cans. A limited edition celebrating remarkable local women by artist Jo Gibbs for International Women’s Month at the Bonnington Cafe, Vauxhall 🥫 #cancans #jogibbs #internationalwomensmonth #bonningtoncafe #vauxhall

Clare and I are very excited to have our series of LGBTQ+ History Walks featured in the Lambeth Local History Forum leaflet this year. The first walk is around Brixton next month. All the details of our plans are on the Lambeth Tour Guides website. Hope to see you 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ #lambethtourguides #brixton

Starting S4 of #Bridgerton 🪭

Still thinking about this beautiful stained glass door at the Light House 🌅 #stainedglass #door #artdeco #lighthouse #soho

Sunshine and daffs in Green Park 🌼 #sunshine #daffodils #parklife #greenpark #london

The Prince Regent is certainly the pub of the moment in Herne Hill but did you know the statue of the Prince used to have a river side view back in the mid nineteenth century? Come and find out about this and more on my Hidden River Effra guided walk 1/2

Wow, a whole lot of blame going on in the #MAFSUK Reunion 😮
