PFM's Picture a Week 2024

[Gromit]

Great evening last night catching up with some old muso buddies one of whom (he's the son of the late Paul Ringham) runs a Bond tribute band 'Q The Music'. Employing some of the best session players in the country, the band is very much the best of their genre, regularly pulling in huge audiences.

Warren asked me to pop along and grab some photos of the gig.

I've always taken the view that photographs of bluebells are a bit of an internet cliché, so I give you some photos of my cat.

Blimey, a colour cat, I half expected you to have a B+W one! (though it could be a Sepia cat )

Blimey, you're absolutely right! There must be something wrong with my settings.

Or perhaps it's the camera

Dalston Kingsland station yesterday

The Illusion of Democracy by Pete, on Flickr

Looks like a high brick wall to me, stretcher bond.

If I'd written that I would have been concentrating so hard on the lovely script that I would have mispelled 'democracy'.

As it is I was concentrating so hard on what to write that I've spelt spelled as though I come from across the pond.

 

[eternumviti]

Talking of spelling, I've just noticed that you've misspelt Dalston, and that I've misspelt misspelled.

On the wall of a luxury apartment block - yes, Dalston is being gentrified.

Huge graffiti over Dalston Kingsland station will finally be removed

Huge cursive graffiti saying: “The illusion of democracy” will finally be removed from a luxury apartment complex overlooking Dalston Kingsland…

'Prices for a one-bedroom apartment in the building start at £565,000'.

Cool.

Which is your favourite bird, Tony?

The one I’m looking at.

A friend of ours runs the piano shop in Sleaford and asked me to pop along and get some images for his new website. It's a lovely shop, housed in what used to be a 19th Century Baptist chapel and suits its more recent - musical - occupants perfectly.

Took the opportunity for a play on some of the stock too.
