Frieze week then, Frieze and all the other fairs, Frieze and all the other fairs and the establishment galleries trying to catch the eye of whoever happens to be in town, the establishment galleries, the wannabe establishment galleries, the one or two mavericks that still have a place to call home.

Shall we do that five recommended art things, London things (for that is where we are for now), five art events we rather think might be worth checking out, shall we do the five thing again?
