the last supper


what started out as a simple day with a plan to go to the Notting Hill carnival ended up in quite a peculiar occurrence. I had stayed at my brother, Dominic's house the night before, I had a lay in and woke up around 11, then I got the tube to my uncles place. We went to the Notting Hill carnival after we had eaten lunch, as per normal it was a great big anti-climax, so I said to my uncle, Frank 'we should probably go and maybe check out a local pub and sit down and have a quiet beer, I think Dominic said he was up for meeting us around here somewhere.' I gave him a call and we arranged to meet up in a pub just off Kensington high street called 'The Prince of Wales'. He met us, we had a pint then left to go to another pub around the area somewhere. Dominic wanted to take us to this other pub around the corner, I didn't mind having a change of scenery. We went to the pub, had a pint, then left to go to yet another pub. We stayed in this last pub for a while, enough time to have a few pints, play a few games of scrabble and even get a big plate of chips. In one of our scrabble games, Dominic managed to get the letters to spell 'c**ted'. After we finished our beers we left the pub, I was going back to Frank's place, Dominic was going home. There was a bin not too far from the pub that we walked past on our way out. In the bin was a print of 'the last supper', it was a really good quality print on what felt more like material than paper. I picked it up and took it, I had no real intentions of doing anything with it. As soon as we walked off, a random black guy appeared from the doorway of a house, he asked 'you getting rid of that?' I told him 'well no, why, do you want it?' to my surprise he just quickly came out and said 'yes!' what was even more baffling about the whole thing was that he walked straight into a pub next to us, even more so his trousers were falling down and his bum was clearly out on show. How bizarre, I found the last supper and gave it away in under a minute.
