Some Things Mix Better Than Others!
January 27, 2008

Well, that was a good [almost] four weeks recovering from the festive excesses, but a couple of consecutive piss-ups knocked all that for six! Lucy's 40th meant Friday was almost a washout. Note to self, champagne, lager, red wine, white wine, sake and tequila don't mix too well! The limo ride to Benihana in the Kings Road was a laugh though and the meal was very impressive. Not the most japanese Japanese food really but entertainingly prepared at your table. Best for a party of folk rather than an intimate dinner! It was the 4 hours sleep I had and the effects of those drinks that made Friday a struggle.

Aside from that, January has been quiet. We had lunch at the Plough And Harrow, in Aldridge, a couple of weekends back, which was very good too.

The few weeks rest has finally seen off the germs that had been coming and going for weeks previously, although I was still suffering a bit for the London Art Fair. We discovered that they start doling out free G&T's after 6.00 on the Thursday so I perked up a bit then. I've been visiting a few websites since then, looking at artists or galleries that I liked the look of. I had every intention of writing something up about it at the time but I think I'll make do with a list of links.

I've been mucking about with a remix of Sasha's Mongoose trying to get myself back into the swing of things musically instead of playing with Google Maps. Hopefully I'll have that pesky third album on iTunes in the next 3 months. along with the previous two.

Currently listening to Olivier Messaien and Black Mountain!
