As I walked along Upper Saint Martins Lane, London yesterday I noticed this wire angel lying discarded on the pavement. What is was for or where it was from I can only wonder.

What good is it for man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?

The mighty Underworld bestride London headlining the South West Four electronic music and dance festival on August 27 2011.
Tickets go on sale today; I’ve already got mine and I’m counting the days to August 27.
When I signed up to Project52 last year I felt that having had a recent resurgance in my blogging I would have no problems writing a post a week or more, but I’m sitting here in week one and can think of nothing to write. I don’t want to write quick link posts or embed videos just to meet my weekly quota; although it is of course debatable whether writing about not writing is any better.
What I hadn’t allowed for when I signed up was starting a new job which I did just before Christmas. I’m once again commuting to London, which I have in the past mused about being a muse, but this time my days are longer and my job more demanding. Sadly London Midland now use cattle trucks rather than carriages so there is no opportunity to write on the train, and for the first time in recent memory I have no interest in sitting in front of my computer when I get home.
Sadly I fear that I may be falling at the first hurdle for Project52 which for me might just be Project1.
I was talking with a friend recently about cities; their similarities, their differences and what defines them. It struck me that cities are so much more than places and people; cities themselves have their own character and personality.
It is this character, this personality that makes a city almost like a person. As with people you might get on with that personality or you might not.
Sometimes a city will grow on you, sometimes you know you will never like a city and sometimes it will be love at first sight.
Over the last few years I have definitely realised I am a city person, not that I don’t love the country and I will always love the coast, but cities and me we have an understanding.
In the words of Underworld Mmm Skyscraper I Love You.
