In the City, The Ned is buzzing and packed. There at a lunchtime recently, it was incredible just how many people were dining, drinking, mixing. I remember it as the Midland Bank headquarters, all marble and grand, but empty and forlorn.
That interior has been retained, but today the building is alive. Same in Camden. At Koko, once the Camden Palace, this week, the dreamy rock band, Temples, were playing to a full house in the main auditorium.
