Q: How do I get to London Fields?

A: You’re on your bike, right? Good. Follow the guy on the fixie – yep, that’s the one, with the Bambi tattoo – down Kingsland High Road until you count three separate instances of people wearing two hats at once. Turn left immediately and proceed eastward until the high-waisted denim short density becomes greater than 10 pairs per square kilometre. Did you pick up any Magners? Ah. Go back to the High Street and buy some. Safely install it in your wicker pannier/canvas tote [delete as appropriate]. The friends you are meeting are practicing their hula-hoop technique near the Lido. A visit to London Fields Brewery would be so last week – instead suggest you pop round to your mate’s squat in a former artist’s studio overlooking the train line, where he knits his own beer.
