Absolutely first class
Highlights for me:

"...me going away like a Singer sewing machine"

"...pulsing gutstick..."

"...proceeded to waddle forward on my knees, like a weary Muslim on his fifth call to Mecca that day..."

"...until the bald man cried forth his milky treat."

"...lump in throat and lump in cock..."

"...in Sarson's Street ..."

"...dousing her Devil’s dumplings with a liberal sprinkling of holy water..."

So much literary goodness in so little space. *click*
