A
revised PSB biography is being finalised.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE…
Club?
Neil: The End, depending on who’s
DJing, Heaven or talking to friends
in the Departure Lounge.
Chris: Arsenal FC.
Place
for breakfast?
Neil: I only eat breakfast at home!
Chris: At home or in a café round
the corner.
Walk?
Neil: From Chelsea, where I live, into
the West End, via Belgravia, The Mall
and Charing Cross Road. London is so
varied and beautiful.
Chris: Back from the West End to mine
in Clerkenwell.
Shop
(any kind)?
Neil: The secondhand bookshops in Cecil
Court or Tower Records, Piccadilly Circus.
Chris: Selfridges, Oxford Street.
View?
Neil: From Waterloo Bridge at night.
The north side of the river, illuminated
and reflected in the Thames, looks amazing.
Chris: From my flat across London.
Place
to drink?
Neil: The Groucho Club (sorry, private
members).
Chris: The pubs around Soho.
Fancy
restaurant?
Neil: St John, Clerkenwell. They claim
to specialize in “nose to tail
eating” but I just eat the bits
in between. Some of the best food in
London.
Chris: Alastair Little in Frith Street
(Soho).
Place
for a cheap and cheerful bite?
Neil: The brasserie on Brewer Street,
Soho. I can’t remember its name
but it’s great for a quick lunch.
Chris: Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Cinema
or theatre?
Neil: The Curzon Soho shows the best
selection of films and you can get a
good cup of coffee in their café.
Chris: Odeon Leicester Square.
Museum?
Neil: The Sir John Soane Museum, Lincoln’s
Inn Fields. It’s the 18th-century
house of an architect, filled with his
collection of paintings and sculpture.
Very atmospheric. Then there is the
National Gallery and both of the Tates.
Chris: Don’t go very often but
the Tate Modern.
What
do you do on Sundays?
Neil: Go for a run by the river. Meet
friends to see a film and then have
dinner.
Chris: Recover.
