Saturday walk about
Had a stroll down Leake Street prior to catching the train to Twickenham. 3 of the better pieces down there. Still loving the fact that 2 years after Cans 2008 there are people spraying. There were 4 boys, mid teens getting up. Love it

ELECTION DAY
Get out and vote one and all.
I was very excited about doing this. I love the fact that we can vote, and have happy memories of elections (though rarely the results). From an early age I remember my sister and I being taken together / in turns to get into the little booth and watch the magic X being placed on the spot. It was always something to be celebrated - and in my mind to not vote is immoral and irresponsible, yet to make it criminal is a step too far. We criminlise far too easily, and like most blanket/whitewash terms the connotations are far more serious than the actions.

Very Proud
My mum commissioned this Tracey Emin piece for Margate Turner Contemporary back in 2003. Got turned down, then finally accepted and unveiled this weekend.
