Culture means so many things and, interestingly, is often just as much about people as it is about art - Kevin Spacey at the Old Vic, the Savage Beauty exhibition featuring the work of Alexander McQueen, and Popeye and Olive Oyl at a book launch.
Wait, what?
Yup, that's right, folks. I met Popeye and Olive Oyl. Jon's company threw a launch party for a new cookbook at Books for Cooks in Notting Hill last week, and these two characters were the guests of honor. How cool is that?
I don't think I've ever seen a Popeye cartoon, but we all know the song:
Well, actually, I'm pretty sure the version of the ditty that I learned at school was a bit ruder and started something like "I'm Popeye the sailor man / I live in a garbage can." Oops.
