oh yes.

it's the usual story.

book: a collection of interviews with patrick mcgrath, by magali falco

i mainly like it because of the stunning photographs used throughout the book.

i also like the acknowledgements page quite a lot

hmmm...

and the author's inscription is not bad too

if you don't know, patrick mcgrath is an author of some note.

i even read one of his books a few years ago... 'asylum'

cd: extraordinary by dj neil armstrong.

remember i told you how i first heard dj ted shred ? when i was in the stüssy

store on haight street, san francisco ?

well in exactly the same store a few years later i first heard this album.

fast forward a few years and neil armstrong is dj-ing at the white house

for obama and has been jay-z's tour dj

but when i first heard this he was pretty much unheard of.

if you get a chance to buy this album somewhere you should definitely do it.

he's the all out king after all !

dvd: the ipcress file

an absolute classic and it has one of my favourite all time scenes which ends with

harry palmer saying the words "i like birds best"

genius !
