Something stupid on Albert Bridge


I think I'm dancing toward something stupid. The weekend was one of highs and lows but for me the pin-sharp moment was on Saturday at about 5pm.

I was walking across Albert Bridge in the rain, sheltering under an umbrella with a woman. She asked why I was walking so slowly and I said I was just enjoying the moment. It was cold, I was late for something else and I'm not even sure that she likes me in that way, but for the length of a bridge I was terribly happy.

A weekend round up.


Quite a lot has happened in the last few days so I've not had time to blog, well I have but I was too hungover to do anything productive.

1) I went for a meeting with someone (in a pub of course) to talk about a photograph, by the time the meeting had ended I had sold some art (don't ask) and accidentally pitched an idea for a T.V. show that Watch With Mothers would hate.

2) I borrowed a friends brolly, it's a proper stout brolly with a point and everything. I'm in love, I carry it everywhere like a Samurai, warm in the knowledge that if I was attacked by ruffians I could have at them with my brolly, it even keeps the rain off.

3) On Saturday T.P's aunt had a birthday party, we arrived separately. Her an hour late so I spent an hour at the birthday party of people I had only met once before, most of whom don't have English as a first language. They were terribly nice and I even made my first joke in Spanish. We stayed till 1am dancing and drinking and yet again I was hung-over the next day.

4) My new job starts today, I've got a desk and everything. I really want a new waistcoat for my first official duties but I don't know if I will have time to find one.
