Liquid Ambar

Astronaut jacket, garden, Liquid Ambar tree making leaves!

Ritzy Picture house with LP to see Wolf of Wallstreet. The long string of events that lead to knocking over a bottle of white wine in Tesco, having to charge phone and get a cab back, only to break my front door key in the lock. Freezing cold. Locksmiths, arguments, flowers.

Goodbyes that feel like hellos

Christmas in February

手を取り合って　このまま行こう
愛する人よ
静かな宵に
光を灯し
愛しき　教えを抱き

Olivia's birthday party in Peckham, Overdue christmas lunch with the gays at Banana tree in Clapham Junction. First normal conversation with mom in two weeks. Learning about Alice Herz-Sommer. Monday night goin' over to Susan's house. Curry night in Brick lane! Chloe birthday party. Finished the Encyclopedia of Early Earth. Reading Quantum Theory.

Undiscovered worlds

Planetarium show at the Royal Observatory, the view over Greenwhich, Thames Clipper with red wine. The conference call with mom. Taking courage. Speaking in bubbles. Singing. Panda T-shirt! Finally taping down the extractor pipe outside, cutting the creeper on the neighbour's apple tree. Butternut soup INSIDE the butternut. Sunshine and warmth to counter the shaking. Colette's t-shirt started. Kenilworth and some rest, finally.



But not for long. I derive great comfort and grounding from listening to my dad's music.

Awesome design and HTML work amidst all the upheaval. Last night of fencing. Bodeans awesomeness. Lord Peter Whimsey. Surviving.

Daytrip to Hackney
