projects
kitty,
How is Sydney? I have not heard from you, I assume you are in sex haze and cannot get to the phone/computer. I understand.
I thought though that I would update you on life in London and some crafty projects I have lined up for the weekend.
We went to Latitude festival over the weekend, it was fabulous. I didn't shower for 4 days and was mud splattered and sore legged from so much dancing. We saw Grace Jones, Nick Cave and Ladyhawke and many, many more mind-blowing performances. You would have loved it.
Sandy got me a sewing machine (isn't he just the best?!) so I am invigorated to get back on the craft train. This weekend I am going to make a dressmakers dummy with duct/packing tape (have a look at the threadbanger channel on youtube.com, they have video tutorials) so I can start making lots of lovely dresses.
Also, I am thinking jewelry, I have some ideas about wooden necklaces that kind of like breastplates - hard to explain but I will post some pics when I'm done.
I miss you - write soon.

Reading lists
Kitty,
here is the blog I was telling you about - it's done by my friends girlfriend in Melbourne and she is also a Brown Owl like yourself! Enjoy - it's lovely.
I am also enjoying this at the moment, it's painful how accurate it is. If you want some cheap and nasty laughs, (which I know you always do) have a look at this
Thank you for uploading those piccies... although it made me all nostalgic! Especially the one in Thailand - they were good days, waking up to the sound of the ocean, coconut milkshakes and jenga at breakfast and pad thai and card games over dinner. Sigh.
I love you

kitty,
One day we will live in the same country (or if I am truly hopeful, the same city) and we will be able to hang out together, drink wine, listen to music and talk about our plans to take over the documentary film making world. This is my imagined soundtrack to the first of these magical evenings.
