I promised T’Nealle that I would try and take pictures of the ridiculous fried chicken take aways in London. However I started the photo essay too late, and mostly after I had left living in North London, where the majority of the hilarious names are. So here is a failed look at chicken takeaways of LDN; Chicks- Wood Green. T… Read more →

A non linear photo essay of T’Nealle and myself in London pt 2- The IKEA chronicle
So it was a dark and typically London stormy night. Sitting on the 341, but not to Waterloo… we took it to Waterloo, but then we also took it to Angel… which is the complete other end of the line. With a quick stop to pick up a key in Brick lane… BTW, this was during the Tube Strikes. We… Read more →

Um.
Barcelona may well be a beautiful city. For me however, I don’t think I’ll ever like it much. Watching and listening to my parents battle out their relationship in front of me is something that will ruin this city forever. I wish they would learn to keep me out of it. I know shit is tough, but as their child… Read more →
So where did I get up to?
So I’ve been really bad on the world tour update. I got as far as Austin? I don’t even think I covered Austin very well. I ate a lot of burritos, that’s probably all you really need to know. The hotel room was really stinky when we left it at 3am to go to the airport in Austin and the… Read more →

It must be September…
Which means there are birthdays to be had. On Friday night, Liz, Lloyd and I went on a walking tour of London. We ended up late, in South London with nowhere to go at the end. So we went to Costas and got cake. I told Liz, while we wandered around Elephant and Castle (smart idea for a late Friday… Read more →
Goodbye Manor House warehouse
I moved out of Manor House on Thursday. I’ll miss the grand over sized bedroom with mezzanine floor. I’ll miss the cat that tried to sleep on my face so many times, and the random people who were there, also I will miss the short single bus commute to work. I will not miss, listening to loud music at 3am… Read more →
Picnic!
I have kept saying to people I wanted to go climb Hampstead Heath. So figuring T’Nealle would be up for it. We packed some swimming attire stopped by the local Sansburys in Camden and went up to the Heath. We made a picnic, in a very DIY kind of manner. T’Nealle was very proud of her pink socks, I was… Read more →
Luton!
SO BBE were due to play in Luton, which is a town best known for having an airport where Easy Jet flies from north of London. On the way to the tube station, we passed this snail mural. The band played a good show, to a bunch of local Luton folk. A reasonable crow came, I was skeptical at first… Read more →
