who needs b'band with wi fi around?
in london 58 hrs, amazing. must post fotos and add captions later.
seattle-chicago-LHR flight interrupted by ailing fart going ill over the atlantic n needing turning back to newfoundland to unload. hitherto silent blond hottie neighbor turned chattie etc.
*3* separate parties on touch down. groan.
next day walked round old haunts n got quite weepy. bad emotional exercise. went back to where i lived 1965-1980, where i walked home each day, usually having affected some content in nat newspaper, radio or TV. walked same streets and observed todays young masters/maitresses of the universe. the old are invisible, not a glance. but i was glancing everywhere and all the confident striding laffing dudes were ME. talk about a lesson in time passing.
luverly london.
smoking : believe nothing about wimpo anti smokes ruling. all cool places have ashtrays n the best pubs have large signs in window about air filters etc and smoking totally ok.
more anon ...
Glad London is fun, wish I were there - like I was sposed to be.
And wouldn't you know it, Dylan is playing Cork in June...
"Ah cigs, gotta love europe. But what about your new coffee shop!?!"
