Apologies that I haven't posted here for a while, there's been too many things going on. Love affairs, a brand new laptop and it's hard to talk about what has gone on in the last two and half weeks when you're extremely tired. Facebook solves these problems. In anyway, it's going to be a harsh month for me a) starting at six in the morning for work is not going to improve my mood. And b) things ...
It was a hectic month, with the typical madness at work, loads of house guests and short trips away. Bouncing credit cards at hotel checkout, lost debit cards on the way to airports, forgotten gig tickets, the sorts of thing that can be quite trying even at the best of times. Everything worked out eventually - the kindnesses of friends and strangers as always saved the day in each situation - as ...
...m happy to be home! I love home, I love Janno and that vacation was just what I needed. Although I had to get up at 0630 on a Sunday, I was home by 1000. You got to love this place, the airports are all small, the check-in for domestic 30 minutes, the air-express buses run every 15 minutes in both cities and they even try to give you a package of cookies and a coffee on a 45 min flight. So, ...
... including toiletries (thanks clinique for the anti-blemish travel kits). Still I had to get a travel bottle in Boots at Stansted to pour my make-up remover because original Biotherm bottle was 125 ml which would mean confiscation. Surprisingly Barcelona Girona airport offers overshoes while London airports don't and when you're asked to take your shoes off it implies walking in socks ((
...it rather than to us and we'd instantly be thankful for the presence of the mason jar of icy, watery relief. Sometimes it would seem like hours before a plane would come. We'd start to wonder if maybe airports took lunch breaks and why we always seemed to pick the wrong side of the airport or time to come. Just when we had given up hope and Magee had put the key in the ignition a plane would cone ...

...is VICIOUS. The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble: Here be Dragons = It's weird, dark jazz (uhduh) like their previous album, but also with hints of Jesu and Ulver. Awesome. Brian Eno: Ambient 1 - Music For Airports = Prettttyyyy I've seen some movies (in a theater): The Men Who Stare at Goats - Fun and interesting with 4 great actors. The Messenger - Loved it! Ben foster is a very good actor. ...
... did he know that François Bonne-Fois was not far away. Or that he had specifically told his little ones to take Arthur Kirkland in, should they ever find him loitering about any of his airports. Yet it was almost two hours before anybody entered the room. England was regretting drinking the water they’d left so quickly. Head resting on folded arms, slumped over the table, he never heard France ...
... future. After an environmental catastrophe, a city is encased in a dome or something to provide the inhabitants with breathable air etc. The protagonist of the story is a young girl, maybe about 12 years old? The one detail I clearly remember is the description of the "wigglewalks" that run through the city - much like the moving sidewalks in airports today. Thanks for any help you can offer!
...small duffel bag on his opposite shoulder swayed a little as he moved his arm, and he shook his head. "No baggage. You've still got my old guitar and I'd rather go shopping than deal with airports." He made his way more confidently through the crowd now with the arm through his own, hazel eyes scanning the area for any problems. As in, fans. Or stalkers. Or weirdos. Almost a decade of knowing ...
