Simply Lunch


On Fridays I am stuck in the new building with no facilities so I make do with Sainsbury's finest and my own company. 99% of websites are blocked. Thank you Kent County Council so its a lonely place to be.

Louise Bourgeois


The best exhibition I have seen so far this year, just brilliant. Yes its half term already, criminal I know.

Doris Salcedo



Leyla getting cosy with the Salcedo installation Shibboleth (is a word used as a test for detecting people from another district or country by their pronunciation) at the Tate Modern. I first saw Salcedo's work at Stockholm's museum of modern art a beautiful gallery designed by the same person that did the Tate Modern similar feel but more intimate. This is a fantastic use of the space and packed with visitors including a toddler with her head down it!

Key Notes

I guess Mrs Fashion is not the editor of The Guardian magazine because today it stated "It's all in the details this season add just the right accessory to pull an outfit together and create a sharp new look" Not quite what she was advocating last week! An open message to the young girl on my station platform last week it is no good wearing the key seasons coat with funky socks if your going to accessorise with a Tesco carrier bag. It just kills the look. Buy a bigger bag. To the older lady on the platform gorgeous coat, bag and shoes but NO NO NO to the black diamond tights a lovely outfit ruined. O,nly school girls wear those tights thankfully not mine though, they are too grim. Instead coloured opaques would have looked so much better.

I loved this film and was sad to read of her death today, check out double page spread in the guardian to celebrate her brilliant career.
