when something is fresh ...

it pulls you out of your world and big goofy smile appears (or is that just me) ... this band MGMT have done it for me with this song ... electric (f)eel ...



it has the same rolling drum loop as cloudbusting kate bush (my heroine) there are parts of prince, 70's NYC soul, 80's synth, daft-punk and i love the bassline !! ... its not what i would say i buy or listen to but this is FUCKING brilliant in my eyes ... thanks MGMT.

A WHOLE LOTTA NOTHING

I have been in Sardinia since last Friday and I must say each time I come here I fall more in love with doing a whole lotta of nothing. Well that is a lie, I sit on the beach and swim in the sea all day, eat fresh fish and drink amazing white wines. So I guess that is something.

We are staying at the hotel Simius Playa which is the south east part of the island in a tiny village called Villasimius. The hotel is on the beach which makes things very nice and easy for your days of doing nothing. We basically crawl out of bed and on to the beach each morning.

Heres a few of my daily views.



The Italians have no shame when it comes to swimwear

I have another 5 days to go on this holiday. So I will see you all next week!!!

there is a place that i go ...

that is a total secret and i cant say where or anything like that ... all i can say is that it feeds my appetite and passion for the past, especially the clothes, the styles, the movements, the cultures ... heres some pics that i took today that hark back to the past and the beginning of one of the greatest subcultural movements ever ... enjoy x

great institutions of working class britain

in reference to the above title it is safe to say that there are many but for me and my wife none more so than the CAR BOOT SALE , we love these kinda things, battered cars and sometimes battered people ... it seems that you can go and invest in items never seemingly any older than being manufactured in and before 1987 ... its a plethora of sights, sounds, and smells ... if any of you lived in a town like i did when growing up where the gypsies came along with their travelling fair but once a year and the odour of candyfloss and hot dogs wafted across the locale inducing both excitement and nausea at the same time ... anyway aside from my attempted poetics , a car boot sale in its glory is much like a travelling fair (just lacking in rides that make you puke) anyway i went to one outside of portsmouth and to my joy, it was a HOT day and the sights, sounds and smells didnt disappoint ...

NICK CAVE

Thanks to my amazing Girlfriend Ines, last night I got to see Nick Cave play at the Tempodrom in Berlin. This show was probably one of the best live shows I have ever seen. He must be the coolest person on earth or at least that is what it felt and looked like last night. I was in awe at his aggressive confident ability on stage. His presence was that of a god.

Here are a few photos to wet your appetite.




I wish you a nice and relaxing weekend. I am off to the countryside for some BBQ in the garden and hopefully alot of sunshine.
