more amazing photos from the fires
safe to say these fires are now getting on my nerves

right, firefighters?



boys keep swinging

i love everything about this
one of my favourite songs
from my favourite bowie album
wore the grooves out of it

not to mention the trousers and the dancing - brilliant

i remember as a kid really relating to these lyrics too
clothes do always fit you

crikey... kenny everett? i had forgotten about him

town's on fire again
one of them is close to me and it smells like you are around a campfire...but all day long
it does make for some interesting skies at night

computer room



when i was little
my dad got the first computer in town at work
we weren't really allowed to see it - i guess in case we spilled something on it
it was always crashing and it had the power to put my dad into a sheer panic if it 'went down' late at night or on the weekend
it took up a whole room - once i peeked in and it looked something like this

i swear!

speechless



i saw this at the hairdressers yesterday
its not the best representation here
better in print
but it took my breath away 
and that rarely happens with fashion for me
..i am jaded
but i stared at this for ages
ralph lauren too!

the unknown hipster






i just discovered this site and thought i might be seriously in danger of losing hours on it
but it's only one page! i am craving more now - paint faster, mr
the drawings are lovely but also the captions and stories are pretty funny
dodgy english at times, which i always love

top drawing is dash snow

marianne faithful and her style from here






yep - i loved it
i am a bit of a sucker for a resistance movie to be honest
some brilliant performances
and...a new girl pash - melanie laurent
my favourite scene was the farmhouse and the farmers daughters
so beautiful

patagonia





apparently all you can do here is ride around on horses all day
which sounds great
but my bum was sore after an hour at sunset ranch
i'd be crying after a week of it

the scout
