This is another shot from my Chorlton photo diary. We wandered round the village on Sunday, pretending it’s spring and loving the winter sun because it’s Britain and we all know this might actually count as summer this year. It’s so close to the city, yet it feels like the country. I’m beginning to lose my urban headache and feel the peace settling around me.
Finally got round to exploring my new neighbourhood. Wore my ‘fur’ to the Unicorn vegetarian whole food store… got some looks. Oops. They have 50 different types of lentil… Found a trippy little 70s boutique and thought I was in San Francisco for a minute. Sundried bananas and beetroot juice for lunch! Totally hippy. Chorltonville looks more like the Cheshire stockbroker belt than Manchester…
They’re back with their sunny tunes after a very long holiday. Hop over to my music blog, High Tunes to listen to blissful new track Tipsy.
Love: can be nurtured and grown naturally, or effectively extinguished by Hollywood Miracles. Chocolate is not a substitute for a healthy relationship, but can be included as part of a balancing act. Love may rise and fall according to hormone levels and financial security. Objects may appear larger in retrospect than they actually are. Your sanity may be at risk if you fail to make sensible decisions about reciprocal emotional attachments.
It was a costume party. There was some very poisonous vodka. And professional photographers. The rest is just a blur, really. Wear a wig, said the invitation. As an alternative to drag, I actually believed I had the ingenuity and social poise of John Lennon. Unfortunately people thought I was Ozzie Osbourne. Which would mean Panos is Sharon, only not as hairy.
