Chris Hathaway is Lost in Digbeth – A lovely post by Chris, who tried ever so hard to find the Dirty Bristow Summer Fete at The Edge and sadly failed, but had a good explore of Digbeth in his attempt:
At this point I realised that I didn’t even know what street the Edge was on, but I figured if I went up and down the vague grid system of Digbeth I’d come to it eventually. I was supposedly a few minutes from the city centre and from its name I’d guess it would be on the outer fringes. After about an hour I’d certainly arrived at various Edges of the city however no luck on the venue finding front…I realised after a while I was quite enjoying my little jaunt around Digbeth and, it having been such a manic week, a little peace and quiet and some walking was quite therapeutic.
It’s great when getting lost is a nice little adventure in itself. I’m as gutted as Chris was at missing the summer fete (I was lost further afield in London) but have caught up on some of the action with this round-up post.
I’ve managed to get my hands on a copy of Dirty Bristow Issue One: Birth and it truly is the strokeable, sensual fetish object that was aimed for. Buy your copy online and get your thinking caps on for contributions for Issue Two: Beast.
