Yeh it’s probably the least prepared i have been for a while. I know fuck all. I’ve written my introduction and conclusion in the first two paragraphs. Not the greatest start. I nailed the last one. I am lack of knowledge. Its been sucked from my ears. Like a plunger in a toilet in here. I can hear the ringing of a telephone in my ears when i am silent at night. This is totally true. I...

I spent one and a half hours in the Reception of Wythenshawe hospital today waiting to be picked up by my mother who had driven to Cheshire to pick up a turkey for Christmas. Don’t ask me why she went to Cheshire for a turkey. Weird people. There were some characters at reception. The old women wrapped up in their winter gear. I wish i had had a camera. There was one old women, around 80...
I’ve missed the train home twice. I didnt go. 11am. Then 5pm read. I need to be more ambitious next term. I need to make some contacts. Sheet steel. Organise acre lane delivery. Buy some screws and such. Im heading for an early one. Ive missed all the snow at home, its only good when its falling. I reckon the old fiat will be a handful. Its gonna go for a mad spin. Im gonna forget shit i...

Nine Black Alps – Daytime Habit
I enjoyed the first half of woburn today
I didn’t enjoy the second half it was pants! Long.

Love you

I aint been paying much attention to the blogster recently. Its nearing the end of term. The year! i put up Woburn today. Me and Emmo. Paintings over the fireplace in the living room. I have such a busy week ahead, i’ve just grabbed an hour to sit and chew on this chewing gum. I hope everyone buys rage against the machine single. Go buy it if you aint. Wow my text has changed like a flip of...
I think the ultimate, pinnacle of an artist career is to create an object, film, music, set of paintings to change the course of a life/lives for the better, inspire, give belief. This happened to me age 13 and i have just unearthed the catalyst again after nearly 7 years and i still feel the same as i did the first time i saw it. I feel inspired.
Fresh. Beauty x
Put a bag on your head. Hoop on your spike. Balance on the seesaw. See the cock in the spaceship. Feel the satellite on the rock. And the man stands at the top of the mountain, puzzled at all things around while you treat yourself. And in the other room your partner gets on with his daily routine. But there is no routine.
Peace & Love x x x

Yeh so for some reason i had got onto a boat for a trip somewhere. I think it was on the Thames the boat. I remember as i got on the boat i was thinking why the fuck am i on here. It was arranged in rows the seating and on each table infront of each seat was a little menu card and i remember thinking that i was excited for a meal. The boat set off and it was rapid. Really powered there was a...

We moved out for some reason. I can’t quite remember why. To moorgate. Bradley zero had his flat and it was cheaper i think and sean was short on cash. Weird building and we were sharing with a really odd women. We were taken downstairs and shown around and there was a massive sack of Spicy Nuts but not nuts they had a specific name. Anyway by no means were we to touch them they were very...

When you feel ill lay down on your bed with cushions behind your back so your sat up but legs are lay down. Make sure your room is pitch black. If you have a laptop turn it on and turn the screen down so its on its lowest brightness without being off. Log into spotify and turn on this song on the loudest your laptop goes while staring hard at your laptop screen (it should be the only source of...
In the bath i was thinking about which one of my parents had the strongest Sperm or egg. Most power. Influential. I deduced that i am 70% dad 30% mum. My dad made great mash. So i think he passed that down. And he had a round face so thats been passed also. Mother was more creative. So i was lucky there. My dad looked cool with grey hair, this is still unknown. I also have his hair wave.

Im getting fuckin good at making mash potato. I might enter a competition sometime. It’s alright to blow your own trumpet about mash. Its a vegetable. And we should embrace this shit.
Feel the love from your favorite veg. Take care, Potato love x
We have 3 primary schools near our flat. Within stone throws distance. Small stone, big arm. There is a kid who plays trumpet every morning on his way to school down the street. He sounds like an Elephant. And he has a freind who plays the recorder with him sometimes. I just heard him then. He must be leaving school. I wonder what tunes he can play. Normally he just makes a fucking racket....
