Knowledge pursues me but I am faster.......

If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, then baffle them with bullshit.......

.......One day, we will look back on this, laugh nervously, and change the subject…

Only in our dreams are we free. The rest of the time we need wages.

Getting there ..... :)

Well, today I went shopping in the East End (20 or so years ago that is where I lived) .... things have changed somewhat ..... I have found that if there is someone with me who is camera aware then even I will take some pics .... sorry to say that mine were very limited .... so only shots of the the first stop off ....after that I was just too taken up with chat etc ....

No. 1 ... loved that cat ....
No.2 .... arriving at Queen's .... it is so over the top kitsch, I love it ....
No.3 .... For Sprocket .... it is sooo Kylie! .....
No.4 .... Fairy Goth Mother's ..... It was just what any middleclass goth needs for weddings, funerals, school proms or everyday wear .....
No.5 ..... A little chubby cherub butler .... oh my, if only I had �£89.99 and a sense of good taste bypass ....

great day out ..... and I am getting there ...... slowly .....

mmmm, the comments on No.4 should go with No.5 and vice versa .... not sure how that happened .... and there is that pound sign symbol thingy again .....

No. 40 I hear there's a hint of mystery ....

I hear there's a hint of mystery
Somewhere in the air,
Just checkout Sprocket's moblog
You'll find some clues right there ....

He is subtle and he is clever,
You will have to spot the theme ....
Of course I could just tell you,
But that would be just mean ....


Yep, yet another naked Sprocket on the blog ....

Edits:
...clicky for Sprocket's blog ... and more gratuitous male nudity .....

No. 39 Some of us just jig along .....

(viewed 1204 times)
Some of us just jig along
And some do point and prance,
But the wonderful Dhamaka,
Well, she can really dance ....

She tangos with the best of them
and even with our Nige ...
(He's such a lovely gentleman,
if asked, he will oblige) ...

So had she been at our last gig,
I'm sure she would have wowed
With a spectacular gancho,
That's bound to hook the crowd ....

In response to Dhamaka's comment that tango dance would not, necessarily, be out of place at last Friday's gig. :-)

Pics from the ELF gig in memory of Alex ...

Dropped into the gig last night .... it was really good .... a vey diverse
crowd as you can see from the pics .....

1. With Tim and Jenny (Alex's parents), the beads I am wearing are a set of Alex's that Jenny gave me to remember him by :)

2. On arrival, stopping to say hello to Jon and Dominic, two lovely lads, Dominic did an awful lot to help Alex when he was ill, nothing was ever too much trouble ...... :)

3,4 and 5. Some crowd piccies ... this was early on, the crowd swelled after the pubs had closed ....

6. Some black leather ....

7. OK so you have a bigger and better camera than me!

8. Some hi jinx (they were only mucking about) ....

9. With Julia (from ELF)

10. Saying goodbye ...

No. 38 Say just what you see ....

(viewed 1015 times)
I thought I'd do a tribute
To a man that I admire,
Illustrator, Simon Drew,
Of whom I never tire.

So if you have a minute,
Or two or maybe three,
Check out my new picture
And say just what you see ....

No. 37 Filbert Fox and Baggie Boy ....

(viewed 1158 times)
Filbert Fox and Baggie Boy
Are getting in some training
They hope to cycle the Leeds Canal
Unless of course it's raining ....

There's just one thing they need to do
(and that's a real safe bet)
And that's to cycle on the path
(It'll save them getting wet).

Joking aside, just want to wish them good luck ....... :)

Edit .... you can Sponsor FF and BB ..... just visit Filbert Fox's site and follow the link on the sidebar.... (I'll try and sort out a clicky) ...
