 | Apparently, Paul first lived in Olympia when he came to London. Which just seems...counterintuitive, somehow. On a rational level, obviously, you have to assume that Olympia is just like any other Kensington tube stop - rows of slightly tatty terraces, getting more expensive the further west and south you go. But the Olympia itself is such a dominant feature (and, realistically, the only logical reason to get on that little lip of a district line extension unless you do live there) that I always think of the place as a vast, barren flatland dominated by the single massy silhouette of the Exhibition Halls. Savage men scrape a life from the barren soil in its lee, and perish never knowing what will be the absolute shit in carpeting next year.
