the sky at night (remix)

an exaggerated view from my office window


DTT to the bunker, to collect a tin sign i've owned for 27yrs and accidentally left behind, behind the stack of polyboards in studio 2
 
it was raining and the bunker felt cold, and empty (of course)

elvis has left the building

couldn't leave there quick enough today


drove further central for northface supplies
a van clipped the wing-mirror of perou-mobile and knocked the mirror out. 

returned east for lunch with Abrar at shoreditch house

SH was full of generic, hip-looking 20-30yr olds unaware (as I was at that age) that by the time they're in the 40's they and their friends would ALL be personally dealing with one or more life-challenging issues like death, rehab, mental health, illness, affairs, unemployment / redundancy, court cases, debt and or divorce.

pick an issue

I don't mean to sound depressing here but I was just struck in that moment, by how you're oblivious to what's coming when you're younger and everything seems ahead of you. 

maybe it was just me at 30: i had no idea what the future held for me and my friends.
there was no future planning
we should have read the manual.


RTK to watch a spike lee film in front of the fire with lucy and sons, cat and dog
the christmas tree is up and the fairy lights are sparkling 

our kitchen units are still under construction
there is a less-than-thin veneer of dust over everything on the ground floor

(this has almost been a perpetual state for new/old house since we took over last october)

the lower ground floor (blades) ceiling is now half insulated

drank my first can of cider in 3 weeks.

work and life continues...
