After a superb 30th birthday party for my good friend Hovis at Le Cafe Du Jardin in Covent Garden, I went off to Orlebar's house where we managed to launch 91 rockets from his roof terrace over The Queens Club. It was a health and safety minefield: not only was everyone standing two metres from the rockets and not the required 25, the acrid sulphurous smoke must've shortened the guests' lives by thirty minutes a piece. Great fun though! The photo is actually from the night.
