breakfast with a view
i’m working from home today as the office aircon is still on the blink. so here’s some Stockholm pictures instead !
Our hotel room was on the 4th floor so we had room service bring the breakfast and we sat by the window watching the world go by whilst eating ham and cheese sandwiches.
very naughty
this reminded me of this, but obviously not quite as good !

an army of fire extinguishers
here are a load of fire extinguishers behind a dusty window on marylebone high street. they look like ghosts. but they are not.
hot hot hot (32C)
it’s like a saunarium in my office today thanks to the lack of committment shown by our aircon machine. still. it’s all good fun
interestingly there’s no maximum temperature rules for UK offices. here’s the official guidance. There’s a man trying to mend it somewhere in the building so hopefully we’ll be icey cool again by tomorrow.
a street tableau
phone box, bin (with leaves), hidden bollard, a white taxi, a drain and a london bus. a classic london street scene.
found photo
it’s been a while since i’ve found a photo. i think this is punishment for not keeping davescollections up to date, but i will update it. soon ok.
so i was delighted to find this scrap of photo this morning on bentinck street where i once found this jewel.
olympics
the olympics have finished and the british atheletes have returned victorious (so i hear on the wireless news forecast). people have a new found interest in sport and have impromtu races whilst going about their daily business.
today, for example, someone has set up some parallel bars which can also be used as hurdles for races up and down edgware road. or ‘The’ edgware road as some people call it.
signs and wonders
i was doing sound at church yesterday morning. inspired by the reading festival i added a little extra volume and reverb to the occasion.
the services incorporated a number of signs:
and here’s pete hiding behind a sign. he’s the only way you know. jesus not pete.
