Saturday 21.12.2013

This time last week in The Old Hairdresser`s in Glasgow, debating the pros and cons of Scottish Independence (general opinion among the random sample of under thirties? "Why not?")
Walked the streets the following day: its always the imposing buildings(and often their wasted potential)that grab the eye.

A storming gig that night with the always amazing Gogol Bordello and then back....



....to work and Christmas `do`s` and more work and Christmas shopping and more work - but a couple of good walks thrown in, especially yesterday on a beautiful cold, clear morning,the sun rising on one horizon as the moon set on the opposite one, the sounds of the geese overhead echoing across the sky and icy art at our feet


And as for books......here`s 8 more to catch up:
American Gods by Neil Gaiman











Garden of Evening Mists by Tan Twan Eng









Mortal Engines by Philip Reeve








Stay Where You Are And Then Leave by John Boyne







The Carhullan Army by Sarah Hall




Kafka On The Shore by Haruki Murakami









May Contain Nuts by John O`Farrell






Notes To My Mother-in-law by Phyllida Law








Phew. An eclectic mix but there you go. One a day would be easier. Must try harder.
