Ok, so some people have been getting irritated that I keep 'advertising' & recommending things in blogs instead of telling you that I had beans on toast breakfast.
To be honest, I would rather read something that someone had recommended me seeing/hearing/going to that might fill my day after my daily blog reading instead of wondering what brand of beans they were and was it on white or granary? But without further ado...
I didn't have beans, my bread was moldy so I had grapes and then rivita with philadelphia cheese & a slice of salami. Not as bad as it sounds, really it's not. There's your london lite quote right there.
The other most trivial piece of information I can think to tell you, I got my fringe cut.
oh and I bought a printer. whoopee.
Erm, so seriously
I've come up with an idea for a documentary, i need to find the people that the documentary will follow, i wonder if I should just post adverts in local newspapers up & down the country. Does anybody know anything about video cameras?? I want to get a decent one that's pretty simple to use but does a good job. I don't know anything about them, there's so many different types. If anyone could give me some advice on where to go with that. It doesn't have to be totally pro, I want to be able to actually use it. Just a good starter camera, I want to shoot short films & documentaries on it... help anyone?
Erm, what else, I'm not back in the studio yet, I went to the edinburgh fringe & I saw this really cool light & sounds show called power plant, ( not advertising/recommending here, just letting you all know how good this actually was, you don't have to go & see it, though to anyone interested if you did go and see it, it would be fun!) So it's called Powerplant & it's showing at the Royal Botannical Gardens, I don't know if they have any other shows in the country but I'd like to find out, I wouldn't mind going to see more stuff like it. It was really beautiful & weird & It was cool to see something that you had no idea how it had been made, put together or even thought of. It was completely out of my realm. It was all in glasshouses with exotic rare plants, my favourite room was with these huge plants and mirror balls and grammar phones with the needles scraping over bits of saw & turf instead of records. There were lights shooting through trees that made the trees shadow spin round & up & down, giant exposed roots with strip lights fusing on & off & fire & neon lights on fans & feathers playing strings & more things I just can't explain.
I also read this amazing comic book, I've got into those recently, they're good. It's called The Last Man, it's really good.
I think there's about 4 in the series and I just read the first one, so i need the rest, now you know what to get me for christmas.
The most important thing I have to tell you is if you remember ages ago I posted a bog about a little girl called tilly who lost her hands due to Meningococcal Septicaemia, her family are trying to raise money so she can afford a new pair of hands, the charity is 'give tilly a hand' and they are auctioning on ebay now.
I gave them an exclusive signed photo and decorated my own pair of hands & it is now being auctioned on ebay...it's only just gone on today so it's only at £1.04!
this won't help much so please please please bid on this item for as much as you can and help tilly get some new hands! this is so important.
That's all I've got.
lots of love
