News March 21st 2009 | – Friction Arts talk about their Flatpack Festival weekend, which consisted of ‘Outersight’ psychedelic psynema on Saturday night and a picnic on Sunday:
…a celebration of the pubs, past and present around Digbeth. The Edge had loads of bar accoutrements in, a cafe serving pub food, darts, bingo, skittles and of course beverages for the punters. There was table service from the ‘Two Dorises’ (Sandra Hall and Mitra Memarzia in performance mode, slightly evil waitresses you would tip to leave you alone) and every variation on the cheese cob you could imagine from the frustrated tea shop owners of Twinkle Jones…
I got given a lovely array of food, and watched pub quizmaster Ben Waddington eat several massive pickled onions whole.
