This Little Piggie . . .
. . . goes to Camden market this Friday again, looking like a regular thing from now on. Look for the LUPEN CROOK sign swinging in the breeze, underneath find ‘weird man’ with a lack of loose change, trying to catch the eye of every passer by, head scratching, feet twiddling, coffee consuming, and then some selling if moods meet and the people agree.
Can’t Bear paintings, greeting cards, postcards, thee back catalogue, the new single and maybe this week some hand cut and fucked t-shirts (because the black ‘straight’ ones are annoying us). Also, two new charms are on sale, with a restock of the two other little treasures as well (see above, pictures by jenny hardcore). All this nonsense will be available in the website shop come next week, but its far nicer meeting in the real world, hand to hand, eye to eye, so come down and have a sneak peek. Mines a coffee with 2 sugars before 11am and any can of lager from then on in. Fair trade. Cheers weirdos . . . CroOK?

Why are the black t-shirts annoying you? What have they done? Really love that heart pendant.
Love all of those charms, how much are they?
Sam – we realised the huge contradiction in having a t-shirt stating “Hands up who wishes that they’d never played it straight” being on the back of pristine black t-shirt. I encourage all those who have bought a t-shirt before this moment to get creative – cut it, fuck it, stitch and safety pin it. I’m doing my bit here and would be grateful for any assistance your end. xxx
Daisy – glad you like them, the charms are all 10 pound each. Hows the PAINting going? xxx
Today the rain is making me manic. A new song just got given to me by an anxious and unfed angel. Thank you.
That’s cool, I’ll have to buy one. I haven’t painted for a couple of weeks actually, I’ve been mainly drawing which is going well thanks. When do you want me to paint your boots? xx
Cool. I guess we need to sort out an exchange of some sort. I’ll have a think and see what my brain comes up with. Don’t hold your breath though, its messy in there at the moment, but it will be done. Thanks again. xxx
can we pop over again or have we exceeded our quota already? (‘¬_¬)
Wouldn’t be the same without you both popping by! I’ll over stay any welcome well before you ever will. x
Haha okay cool. No problem, just let me know and stuff xx
i’m seriously considering getting a friday off work to pop down. I haven’t been to London in a while anyway so would be nice to see if it’s as grimy as i remember! not that cunterbury thats much nicer
x
That would cool. We can drink beer and abuse the tourists in a ‘this is the real Britain’ kinda way, with the hope they purchase a little Crooked gift of course, for memories sake. x
My fingers are burning. Too much bleach.
Joe beat me to it – I was going to say some time (maybe even this century) I will try and take the day, or afternoon, off work and head over to Camden
Really like the heart charm
xx

PEACE&STRUMS x
Im so glad that me and my friend stopped to check out your stuff. Can’t bear-cards are hanging on the wall and your music is awesome. Im hooked.
Greets from Finland.
Thanks Jen. T’was a pleasure to meet you both. Come find me again next time you’re over – in the mean time keep in touch with spider web words. x
I want one of each …
Hope to see u soon .xx
Love from rural Sweden
Me and Jen will definitely get back to Camden as soon as possible! I have been showing all that Original (and awesome) weird stuff to all of my friends and listening your music. God, Finland feels so boring after a week in London. Why doesn’t food taste the same after a Camden meal?
