The Hackney Wicked Festival might be too cool for you
Yes The Vintage at the Southbank is Ok… for a Bourgeoisie crew
But if you want to get down and dirty where the new arts at
Sit down, get your pipe, read this and do the Cheshire Cat
–
You see there’s so many things going on
I don’t know where to start
Do you go to the Peanut Factory
For comedy and live performance art
–
You see this Festival isn’t Poplar, it’s way better than there
Eg the flyover cinema tickets went quicker
Than the sprinters will next year
–
If you look on the Festival website, it tells you all that’s on
I got a bit confused but there was one thing that shone
Things might be tough for us but it’s tougher for others elsewhere
Specifically I’m talking about Africa with the drought and despair
You’ve seen it on the TV and in the press
That’s why what they’re doing at the Flea Market, is sure to impress
All the proceeds from it on Saturday aren’t going into the Big Mans pocket
It’s all going to the DEC for the East Africa Relief project
–
So now I’ve said my piece, you decide. These next few words may offend
So stop reading Now, if you’re that way inclined
You see you can go to Vintage at Southbank and have a good time
But will you be able to look into those malnourished eyes
Without feeling a chill run up your spine.

The Flea Market at the Hackney Wicked Festival is at: Hackney Wicked Yard, 41-43 White Post Lane, Hackney Wick E9 5EN. It’s only a few minutes walk from the train station and for more details on other events over the weekend click Hackney Wicked Festival.
Also if you have a car take a look at Ronnie’s new site CarBidOff.com or read an article he did about how you can get a cheaper car repair bill the next time you go to a garage.

Hi Hon
I think what you’re doing’s great, that’s what I was trying to say
Hey Chris
I run the Hackney Wick flea market, donating money to DEC was not an attempt to impress, rather it is a channel raise awareness of the issue. I do the same for my record store on the market event page
