Yes, we're at RISE London United festival in Finsbury Park and the atmosphere is bloody amazing. Even more so is Ida Barr, the elderly cross dresser in the comedy tent doing a bit of freestyling about Camden council, Boots and arthritis to the tune of Missy Elliot, Kelis and Black Eyed Peas. Who knew My Humps was actually all about lumbago? What's really nice is there's a sign language interpreter as well so nobody's missing a word of this wonderfully cracked act. Excuse us for a moment, we've just been roped into a riotous sing song. Ace!
