Once again sat outside Mc Donald’s trying to use their wifi without actually having to go inside the place. Yesterday damned strange. Everyday strange, but yesterday goes right up there with the top end of a highly strung grappling hook.
Screened the first segment of a brilliant film entitled ‘Will the Real Pimps and Hoes Please Stand Up’. If you get the chance to watch it, do so. We had various cast members and the producer on site, and the night before pretty much everyone involved in the production side came down. They were all on scene promoting the film in the street with us. One of the guys involved (actor/writer) was called True Love, which is a great name. They had come over from Los Angeles to screen it at the American Pavilion (which is a bit swanky). They screened it. Then they brought it to us. Which was nice of them.
At some point last night a ninja appeared on the Croisette, ran around, made some pretty girls scream and then camped out on top of the van for a bit. After proceeding to jump off the van like Onikage

it then sat and had an ice cream.
Later on we picked up eight Dutch musicians who’d van had broken down and took them back to their campsite, which was conveniently also out campsite. One of these guys accounts for the trumpet I mentioned in a previous posting. It turns out that they specialise in Dixieland, blues and jazz. They all wore matching orange shirts and claimed that their band was founded in the Netherlands in 1926.
Then we went home, got drunk with them and ate chocolate mousse.
Another professional day nailed at the biggest film in the world.
May the van rock on.
