Internet Curtains : July 2009
http://internetcurtains.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, 20 July 2009. Six English Towns, by Alec Clifton Taylor. Sir Alec is civil, prodigiously knowledgeable, an excellent social as well as architectural historian; and he talks well and clearly — if anyone doesn’t know what vermicular rustication is they will find out. He has the good manners to explain himself as he goes along. His programmes have no resort to gimmickry — no artily self-conscious photography, no awful electronic music.". Posted by Chris Matthews.

Saturday, 17 October 2009. I know this city! The following is a series of extracts from BS Johnson's. Why have I done this? Why I have ruined your imagination? Covered courtyard, taxis, take a taxi, always take a taxi in a strange city, but no, I know this city! Yates's is friendly, the first impression going in, the first time I have felt that kind of warmth since I came to this city this morning, an alien city, though I know it, really, I keep telling myself, friendly here, a relief, a great relief!
