It's from ten years of renting and never being able to paint anything. Now I have the opportunity, I feel I must paint something a stupid colour. It's like coming out of college unable to say no to free beer, even if you can easily afford to buy your own.
Paint one or two walls in Dark red (say) with a pale red to back them up on the others. or Paint bottom half of wall dark, top half light, with some funky hand-made border separating them or Paint large funky squares and shapes of dark red onto light red background in an arty manner.
Cream and blue. 'S lovely. Spesh with that bright blue that you like so much.
Film sometime this week?
Mel's moving in today - the girl we met in G&Ds. Dunno where she is, though. I should probably tidy her room. Ooooh! Would you and wibble like to come over for a Genuine Howondaland Curry?
It's from Nanny Ogg's cookbook, or rather, it is *in* Nanny Ogg's cookbook, cos I wrote it. I have proof! It's just a sort of coconut and chicken curry with chilli and lots of garlic.
AFter new year is good for us actually. Probably. We're coming up to Oxford today, anyway. Escaping the shoes.
