Untitled.

I went to the National Portrait Gallery to catch the end of the Gay Icons exhibition. I enjoyed it. Especially looking at the photography crew in the reflection of Elton John's glasses. But most of all, I enjoyed this:



Andy Warhol: "In my movies, everyone's in love with Joe Dallesandro".

I didn't have time to go to the From Beatles to Bowie exhibition. BUT I did nab a postcard of a 19 year old Bowie looking flyyy. he he

I went to Brighton to buy buttons and visit Kyle. And any excuse for fajitas and cider! Oh, and a few cheeky giant purple ones and green triangles. I heart praline.
I got some lushhh buttons. Some of my corsages are gonna be so sweet!
I like this photo:

Oh yes, and I saw Heston Blumenthal! That was a nice treat! ha ha
I love getting to see Kyle more regularly, it's pretty damn good.

So far, I've loved my little trips up to London. It's so much better being a tourist, I think.
I went to CSM for books, and I saw some great sights! Punks on the street corners, and sweet bicycles, and risque shop window displays! Ooops!
And the other day I watched Tower Bridge go up! It was a bit of a cloudy view going over it, but still fun! he he
I also went to Trafalgar Square. I think the last time I went there, I was with Ian, and I have the token photo of him next to a lion! RArrr!
I like this photo, of old Nelson:

I also think I enjoy London more because I am always equipped with sanitiser. Like underwear...it's a basic human right! ha ha

I got some lovely new pens. Only us arty freaks would get excited by something like THAT! But they are lovely...lime and magenta and grey. Yum.

What else? Silly music. Acrylic paints (my new brushes are lush). My darling boys! Quotes! Nevermind the Buzzcocks...La Roux the satsuma, ha ha ha. Baulbauls...yep. Commuting diary - pain in the arse. Pigs tails! Corrugated cardboard saved my life. Libraries. Laughing (with tears). Visitors. Swimming (50 lengths EVERY TIME, go me!) Gummed tape. Too much cider. Not enough cider. Gingham ribbon. Toffee apples. Bats. Ladders in my tights. Embellishments. Green fingers. The City (help me). Bouquet of pink roses, thank you! My new crown pin (sighhh). Fearne Cotton and Paris Hilton...her bedroom was a bit nice! And I agree, paparazzi should DEFINATELY be glittery. Vegetable crisps. Ideas and plans and exciting stuff. Laughing at AMAZING photos:



I really really really need to get my paws on the Diana 35mm back:


Oh my!

I also set my sights on one of the most fantastic brooches I've ever seen:


I have loads of crafty ideas at the moment - I need to get my paws on some shrinky plastic before I lose the urge! Urge is such a funny word.

I also discovered this gorgeous fabric I need to make a pencil skirt or a dress or a bunting or anything out of:




I'm getting pins and needles...I've got to go and jump around.

P.S.
