Fellow cricket fans,
A recent late night political discussion in a bar (wie immer) on the current "anti-USA" european stance: it´s certainly not anti-USA, rather it´s the dismay at seeing another instance of a country´s seemingly blind allegiance to a leader (Mr B with his 90+% ratings and Rambo like charge). No surprise then that the conversation turned to parallels with Hitler´s efforts to make the world "a better place"(!) The Germans, for one, certainly don´t want to see this happen again!
Notes:
1) Coffee: the search goes on. The bar in this pic is one of my favourites, though NOT for the warm brown liquid they serve it´s simply an atmospheric thing - ambience if you like, and english newspapers.
2) Cameras: experimenting with medium format: a Kiev 88 "Russelblad" (Russian copy of Hasselblad)...more later.
3) Projects: continuing with a)the Canal. b)Industrial Landscapes. c)Waitresses(!)
4) Weather: Hot and dusty with snow to low levels (ie. v changeable...Spring?)
