ROBINIO - his finest moments.

 
I urge you to select 'Robin' from the Labels list on the right side of my blog, I don't work with him anymore and I'll miss continually tormenting him. Witness his despair at sitting next to me for nearly 3 years - captured forever in digital imagery.

I am self employed.




Today I drew a starfish and a crab and it was quite a lot of fun. I got some amazing leaving gifts from my lovely ex colleagues at wonderland, they're like family - but family that actually buy you things you really like.
I'm going to take my new Diana camera out this weekend and snap all sorts of Peckham business.
(The galleries on this site are quite inspiring) http://microsites.lomography.com/diana/

Peckham

The Peckham Art Scene - a gallery tour with Art Lick
http://www.spoonfed.co.uk/spooners/spoonfed-arts-team-8139/spoonfed-team-up-with-art-licks-for-peckham-art-tour-5396/
I'm never going to say which side of the Thames I love best, there's good and bad bits for both south and north and I've lived in both areas on and off for 6 years. (actually yeah it's north) BUT Peckham is really creative and there's loads of good stuff on all the time, Franks has closed now for the winter which is a shame as I'd happily be up there all year round but I've spied a good new thing coming up...

















BUSSEY - open studios in December looks good.
AND I had dinner here the other night in Campberwell and it was DELISH!

Over in Deptford is the big red pizza bus, vrroooom vroom beep beep... It's a bus, it's red and it serves pizzas - hooray!



 This is not me in the picture, I'd never laugh in the face of pizza... and I didn't write this: "Quite how a No. 30 double decker ended up in Deptford is anyone's guess - Under the long concrete curve of an elevated section of the DLR, and with an unloveable portion of Deptford Creek tucked mercifully out of sight, it's a surprisingly convivial spot, in part due to the boss who, despite coming across as a little otherworldly, is very friendly and thoroughly content with his eccentric operation.
What of the comestibles? Drinks, heavily limed mojito (£5) and in a small kitchen beside the bus, is pizza and a few salads
There are seats and tables inside the stranded bus, of course, but also plenty more on the decking outside. Some sofas have a little shelter against sun and rain, as well as low tables that encourage poor posture among those nodding to a soundtrack of Billie Holiday, Sade and Depeche Mode."

come dine with me,

what a funny group - this woman is NUTS.

I changed my blog address and now I'm getting hits in the tens rather than in the hundreds each day.
(sad face) Please share the new address with anyone who might not know it's been updated. Thanks.

Yum


Unconventional as it is, the way to my heart is through EGGS.
Any meal is transofrmed with an egg on the top.
This is why I've changed my blog address - because my mum thinks I'm mad and this sort of post only encourages her.


My mum vs. composition & cropping.

King's Cross

Someone has gone to the (why) bother of making London landmarks out of cake.
It's on show in St Pancras.



















and a brave move by Yo Sushi Kings X who this week made their stance on atypical meat very clear.

Scared of everything this week.

No.1
Watching the trailer to this. That's enough thank you.



No. 2
Having to open the cupboard under the stairs in complete darkness and home alone to take a photo with the flash on to locate the fuse box


No.3
A house full of sinister half floating balloons silently following me about. This one was waiting for me in the spare room last night.

smoky lemons




Ever wanted a smoky lemon? I know I have - well now's your chance to snap one up at the Brockley Market SE4. Apparently there's also a bee hive where you can buy some honey. keep that hive away from meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. What the hell is going on with those lemons?
