Guest blog post #2 - from Angela

Some poetry from Angela. An exclusive. Thank you!

Why do I do what I do?
I dunno really, or do I?
Do I think before I do?
Or do before I think?
Dunno really, or do I?

Maybe I do, yeh I think I do,
Well I must do, I think.

I’m old enough to know better, if I don’t.
If I do then maybe I think too much.
Mum always said that I think too much,
I sort of agreed, or did I?

I sometimes think that I don’t think enough,
But I probably do, or maybe.


A poem, what I wrote.

I've cleaned out my workroom and made it all cosy. Good enough to look and read my photo books without any clutter to get in the way. I had so much "stuff".

Like Keane says . . . . no distractions.

Here I am . . . looking at a Broken Manual, and I love it!

 I'm sorting out my PC room so I might be missing now and then. It's going to a be a net free zone (nets a huge distraction) it'll be strictly a digital darkroom. New printer will go in there next month. I'm Selling my Epson 2880* 




I've been feeling pretty angry about some of the language being used by parts of the media and Westminster. Populist politics is gutless. I listened to a very passionate and articulate young black girl saying that we don't have a police service, we have a police force. As I roll my tongue around the back of the false tooth I have, which was given to me by member of GMP 25 years ago. I know that she knows that our police force have never been softly softly when the cameras aren't rolling



This is England (the other one) and I'm going show it from the inside



*mates rates are available (cough)

Edit Kras:

Tried to comment Google locked me out, anyhow . . .

"You are the one to show it from the inside, I know that for sure.
There has been so much rubbish analysing what happened . . . tree and forest comes to mind.
I'll be taking a break myself, what with Mum over from Norway for a month.
K&K on Summer Break.

"Bloody Kids"

A trailer for the film "Bloody Kids" made back in the late 70s, early 80s. It was shot in Southend, (Stephen Poliakoff's first film) and I remember it well. The kid in the hospital was a year below me at school. One of my fave films.

Manchester

Well,

Kid's have been running down my sisters street. She's only a couple of hundred yards from Piccadilly where there have been pitched battles. Those kids are running from Ancoats in to town

It'll be a long night...


Edit;

This...

That's Cash generator being ransacked

Tune of the day

Think my old partner in crime will like this one


Edit - Kras

Not my cuppa Sean, thank you anyway, appreciate it. The lyrics are great not sure about the way of the voice. I'm thinking more on the lines of this  :-)
