Notting Hill Carnival
Sunday, August 24th, 2008
The biggest street carnival in Europe takes place every last weekend of August in London’s Notting Hill.
I used to live in that area so had no choice but to be a part of it. Great time to have a party on the first day, not so great to listen to the sound systems on the second day when you face a major hangover.
The carnival is a messy, crowded, loud event, I would not go again. My only memories are loud music and curry goat, crowds of people, no space to move around and no toilets.
View from my old house on Ladbroke Grove.
