Daughter told me that one of my images (the one everyone seems to call the eyeball) had turned up in her school as a 2m square banner in the school chapel. I was aware that it had been mentioned in the past but, tbh, I'm so unused to things not happening at the moment that it's ... delightful (for want of a better word) to see something that does. Very surprising. Was in the school on friday dropping off files on a DVD (more on that later) and had a quick look see - and photograph.
Love the architecture and feel of the new school (although some disagree) and was very pleasant to see the pic in situ.
Was also at the Boileroom last night for a staff enjoyment of final day with kids (mixed feeling this year, again more on that later) and one of the staff team performing at the close of the day. Four acts through the night all good, first time seeing Natascha Sohl and Flame to the Fire and they were both excellent. Midgar brilliant as ever and Redwood showed the kids how it's done :) Also went to a friend playing at the Guildford Community Centre which was ace and met up with an old friend and his wife who I'd not seen for 3 years or so. Lovely day it was. Mostly.
Found time, at the first two gigs to draw these using brushes (plus a few photos too). Enjoy. I loved the doing of them.
Grrr except I can't show them as the iPod touch won't connect to the network. Will upload later. Pics attached tho.
