Adventures in Thanet, Part Two
Actually part three or four, since getting to Broadstairs was more complicated than anticipated (the 8 takes a weird detour to pass the Turner Contemporary, with no visible convenient stop) and there was coffee/work stop in Caffe Nerd at Westwood Chaos (itself approached through a circuitous route on the Loop). I'll write about Broadstairs later - ( Read more... ) -

Tate Expotition
I spent part of the weekend debating about a London trip on Monday, which would be extraordinarily bad timing and like when am I going to get any more work done when most of this week is blocked out and next has its own awkwardnesses. On the other hand, it'll get done, apparently, I don't see Roger that often and I have seen Istvan and Ettie for ( Read more... )
