Listening:

Nick Lowe “Cruel to be Kind”
Arthur Russell’s “Love is Overtaking Me” LP
Alela Diane “To Be Still” LP

Reading:
Grace Maxwell “Falling & Laughing -The Restoration of Edwyn Collins”
and rereading Sam Selvon “The Lonely Londoners” – ‘All these thing happen in the blazing summer under the trees in the park on the grass with the daffodils and tulips in full bloom and a sky so blue oh it does really be beautiful to hear the birds … and see the green leaves come back on the trees and in the night the world turn upside down and everyone hustling that is London oh Lord Galahad say when the sweetness of London get in him…’
Walking:
Waddon Ponds to Morden Hall Park; The Wandle Way; Uxbridge Rd, W12 to Ladbroke Grove W11 – the New Way.
Watching:
“Red Riding” OK, maybe a tad disappointing (and a little annoyingly – confusing.) but still bloody good.
