Margo London 2008: Don't Panic*
http://margolondon2008.blogspot.com/2009/01/dont-panic.html
Monday, 5 January 2009. I stripped rather nervously. As instructed, I crawled naked into the machine. Eye patches stuck over my eyelids, I reached out blindly for the button and pressed "Start". What happens if I fall asleep? What do I do if I overheat and shrivel? What if someone . ". Bing Bong" said the machine pleasantly and shut down. I sat up, peeled off my eye stickers and stared in the mirror. Yes, definitely more tanned. With thanks to Douglas Adams. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Margo London 2008: Non, je ne regrette rien
http://margolondon2008.blogspot.com/2008/12/non-je-ne-regrette-rien.html
Friday, 19 December 2008. Non, je ne regrette rien. I get awfully tired of hearing about the looming recession on the radio, watching tv news and reading the papers. So many words! Who cares whose fault it all is? Why do we have to spend so much time finger-pointing, blaming and picking history to pieces? We need to get over our little selves; our ego-driven arrogance, and celebrate the tightening of the belt. It can only do us good to lose a little of the fat . In every sense of the word. My Friend Gera...

Margo London 2008: Duty and Shame
http://margolondon2008.blogspot.com/2009/01/duty-and-shame.html
Wednesday, 21 January 2009. Barack Obama's Inauguration speech really affected me on a personal level yesterday. I listened alone in a Boardroom, in the gathering dark above Hanover Square as he spoke of the duty of individuals to contribute to a globally networked community. He said "our patchwork heritage is a strength" and "let's not compromise our ideals in our need for safety". This too shall pass. And even this -. That the way I speak to people continues to excoriate and come back to haunt me,.

Margo London 2008: The 8.02 via Charing Cross
http://margolondon2008.blogspot.com/2008/12/802-via-charing-cross.html
Tuesday, 16 December 2008. The 802 via Charing Cross. But I shake it off; as I always do. This is my family and we are what we are and I am where I belong, for all the right reasons. The 802 comes into Tottenham Court Road, where I change for Oxford Circus and the high street lights of Christmas. I put on my scarf and trudge the 97 steps (I’ve counted them) up to street level. The lights are fragile and beautiful against the still-dark morning sky. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
