I am listening to Braxe/Falke and watching the train, I should be studying, or at least catching up on the reading for [secret for now] or at least playing Touch Detective or at LEAST making a cup of tea, but I appear to be in stasis by the window.
There's a Stephin song about watching trains go by, isn't there? I just thought of that and assumed one of the views from your flat must encompass a railway.
the snow seems to be settling here in putney & looks rather beautiful ( from my window w/our central heating on full blast ) - & there are no ppl abt at the mo to "spoil" it
Ditto for Finny P, unsurprisingly. But it is noticeable how each zone into London is slightly warmer than the one outside. Which means the rest of the country probably looks like Alaska.
Yeah, but I'm sure back there loads of places were just called Town or whatever; most of them have at some stage gone for a rebrand. Certainly, areas of London have often changed their name - we may mock estate agent attempts like 'Dulwich borders', but it's an ancient process. And yet, though it all, Borough stayed Borough.
Yes, I don't know what we've hung onto the name for so long. Maybe because of the market, which has been on the go since at least the 13th century and which was held on the Borough High Street until the the purpose-build market buildings were constructed.
I nearly moved to just off the far side of the Elephant roundabout a year or so ago and was all set to call it North Kennington. Even where I live now has equal claim to being either Elephant or Borough, depending on how aspirational you're feeling, which has led David Shah to dub it SoBo (South Borough). Funny, right, but Phil claims to have seen the term SoBo being used in all serious by estate agents as a shorthand for South Bow, better known to the rest of us as..er..Tower Hamlets.
- snow all gone away now ( - it was surprisingly warm in the sun round here yesterday afternoon )
i spent goob friday & easter saturday in yr exotic finsbury park ( regina road ) where we had rain, sleet & even some sunshine - it was pretty cold on my way home on sat eve
- i can remember watching when it was first broadcast in the uk ( itv used to show it on sunday evenings, iirc ) but i can't remember anything abt the actual gontent of the show - which is probly just as well...
Was it by writing things? Could you write me some happy things?
It could work. Instead I shouted at ron to take it away. I probably pissed them off way more. Bugger.
I am sleepy. I woke up at 3 and accidently read lost girls. I didn't like Alice. Alice isn't cold like that. :(
I actually quite liked it but I still don't think it it enough for me to watch the next series. JB is a shit actor. And like I said by having two members who effectively cannot die they have distroyed the momentum.
Yeah but this leaves them with the thing for next week, where John can try to get to Jack by destroying what he cares about. The main downside of which is, it will lead to Barrowman EMOTING.
Yes it is. Encouragement to stay indoors, drink boozes, eat hot food, central heating comfy bed, snuggly duvet and willing partner. What more do you need for a fertility festival?

Anyway, 'Fragments' = considerably better than 'Adrift', at least.
