Whoa! Its been a frantic week, finishing work....looking for work. All the while, still co-working on our main and favoured project Trove. My lady has two jobs, poor girl. But the bills must be paid and the show must go on.

Since Im tying the knot in four weeks to the day! Ive been looking at some sharp chaps, and tidy dandys to get a feel for what I want to be wearing when I marry l'amour de ma vie.

Frank....Woop woop!

Q: what time is the 171 due?

I stumbled across this postcard flitting through some flyers and the cover caught my eye instantly. The block print boat is simple and has been scuffed so that the ink has been smudged. Turning the postcard over, reading that 
it was a question with space for you to answer and post it back made me smile.

Now then...

So the torrent never came, the reason why? Our local exchange point didn't like our house, so,
the man from BT came and worked his magic, ta dah! 


Anyway there has been lots happening, I am getting married in August ( lots to do, lots to do), the business I created with my wife-to-be is getting a lot of attention of late.(see Noisette Marketing).
Mundane things, like growing runner beans and other nitrogen fixating plants in our back garden, more exciting things like carrots and chilli plants.


May was a good month, I sold three more badges in Red Door gallery, Edinburgh. Woo woo!


Musically, I came across Cyril Diaz and His Orchestra!

Ah...take me back to the 1950s, in the Port of Spain, Trinidad, so I can dance with my lady till my feet hurt and my head spins from the heavy afro-beat and the twirling of the beautiful girl whom I dance with hand in hand!

Those summer days...

While our internet was out, we had some amazing weather, I hope it is a taste of things to come for the summer.
The past week or two took me back to last summer when my lady and I took a train or two (three?)
to Portugal. We found this incredibly relaxed and dapper bar called Cafe Candelabro in Porto.

From our time spent here we came to know the ingredients of our perfect day. On this day I would wear black, drink coffee perhaps smoke and watch the world go by.

The bar sits on the corner of Rua da Conceição, inside there are glass cabinets filled with photos, collectable magazines and photographs from the silver screen and shelves filled with hardbacks.

The monochrome mosaic floor sets the mood nicely.

Back!

Hello Hello, it seems like an age since I posted something note worthy on here.
I did not realise how much I used the internet until our internet provider took three weeks to transfer our service to our new house.

Well the blackout is over kids...

...a torent of posts to come in the next few days.

This station is non-operational

Hello. Many things have been happening in my life at the minute, one of them moving house, which is why I havent posted anything of late and two. Im getting married to the love of my life Ms. Brown of Olive & Brown (very talented girl).

All very exciting apart from there is no internet in our new house yet! Should hopefully be back on line soon.
