There is a sense of victory when paperwork is filed. I felt it. I defeated the enemy, stood above the conquered beast and scrabbled around for the nearest lead pipe. 

 

My wife made Thai Green Curry, we had Pak Choi that needed using up. I type, I listen to all the free CD’s that the lovely Cinematic Orchestra People bestowed upon me last night. Ninja Tunes. mmmmm.

Catching the red eye tomorrow. Soho breakfast.

Sometimes what you are meant to do shouts loud enough for you to hear it and respond. While the family enjoyed a novel bucket BBQ on the beach, with Salmon and Pork and Red Chilli sausages, I was travelling to our nations capital.

I met a good friend in Soho and we were treated to the Cinematic Orchestra playing a mini showcase. Spine tingling brilliance. From there, hot tailed it over to KOKO’s to catch Death Cab for Cutie at the iTunes festival. The music was beautiful and sensationally honest.

Amazingly sat next to construction finance experts on the train back home. One of them has just bought six airplanes.

Apparently helicopters are great value and the prices have dropped, these days a decent one can be picked up for around £80K. Just don’t buy a Robinson R22 the doors don’t shut properly and you have less than a second to auto rotate.
