still with cold, had to abandon sunday with the family in favour of DTT to location scout for a shoot on tuesday.
which should have happened earlier in the week but i was stalling because i was ill
then it should have happened on friday but i was busy being crashed into.
a gorgeous sunny day
which totally screws the location photos: heavy rain is forecast for tuesday, of course.
grrr.

private loo
drove round the back of beckton, where stanley kubrick shot much of 'full metal jacket' at the old gas works (where i got the big scar on my wrist when me and alan pike had the stupid to climb a huge collapsed chimney, without ropes one time...in 1995)
it's all gone: just a mall and an industrial estate now.
so many of my 'go to' locations for photogenic places have gone completely; the whole of east london decimated and modernised.
whole areas of unique interest reduced to a homogenised copy of 'shopping centres' or 'retail parks' all over england
very depressing.

i'm really over this cold: because i'm NOT over this cold.

everyone i know seems to be seasonally ill.
three shoots and the bunker launch this week.
tomorrow morning i need to wake up fixed and tuesday morning i need to wake up with the sunshine in my eyes.
