South Bank Wanderings

Sand carving by Gabriel's Wharf

I love the South Bank. Not very often do I get to wander along it with enough time to take photos, but a few days ago, was the exception…

Oh Holy Lord

I had no idea any animal could make that noise, but will someone please do something about the damn urban foxes having a damn domestic outside my flat?? I swear, the first night I thought someone was strangling a baby. Then they kept coming back. In summer it’s that damn pigeon who is convinced that …

Secret Societies

Grand Lodge Covent Garden

It can’t be fun being in a secret society in this day and age.  The glamour must be all gone. I mean, sure, your basic secret, secret society could probably do a fairly good job of keeping a secret.  I could start one right now (hello world) and we could have weekly meetings and hatch …

So blimey, isn’t the Shard growing fast. And oh yes, aren’t you glad not to have to do this for a living….

Bonfire Night

It’s not very often I get to sing the praises of my estate.  It’s a proper London estate, replete with all the things you’d expect from the above – noisy neighbours, bored kids, overturned bins etc. – but don’t get me wrong, as council estates go, it’s a very nice one and I like it …

Lord Mayor’s Fireworks

It’s been an age since I blogged (again) and honest I’ll try to explain why as soon as life stops being this ridicously hectic, but while I’m here and before I forget, this is important… http://www.lordmayorsshow.org/ So every year the Lord Mayor of London gets a big show.  And there’s parades and stuff and balloons …

My Camera Works!

La Finta S + La Finta G 003

So, my camera now works! Or rather, my camera is broken.  I went to the repair shop and asked how much to get it fixed and knock my socks off, it cost as much to buy a new one, as get the old one fixed.  Sigh. But, on the plus side, I now have a …

Adventures on the DLR…

Photo by Julia Ihnatowicz

Once again, it’s been an age since I blogged.  I’ve been working on a show in Greenwich, and me and my spanners have, as a consequence of this, become a bit of a fixture on the Docklands Light Railway as of the silly hours of the night.  I used to have some serious problems with …
