Where to buy Minoxes

If anyone wants to buy a second hand Minox, I can wholeheartedly recommend Steve at [URL removed by moderator] I have bought 3 cameras from him, (the first one was stolen), and have found him to be fair, kind, very patient, funny, and very helpful.

Let me know how you get on.

Leaving Stockholm

Tuesday I will wake up a free woman. Wednesday I will wake up in my own bed. And Thursday I will wake up in a cold sweat with no gainful employment!

And round we go again.

Leaving Sweden

Finally leaving Sweden, and not that sorry to do so. Apologies to any Swedes reading this, but I found the culture-shock pretty intense. Loved the temperature, (truly, I am a cold-baby), but I hated the decision-making processes.

I am assured that what I experienced was unusual, and that the rest of Sweden functions just fine. It would be good to have the chance to find out.

Back to the UK, foot and mouth, census, election, and all sorts of other unnecessary feddaddling.

Raising Ghosts

It is so long since we made love,
since the stars shone in your eyes
and since I held your loving body in my arms.
Our love has died. Its cold ashes
colder than the space between the stars.
(That used to shine in your eyes).

And last night I gazed at him, and he was not you.
He kissed me, and he was not you.
I held him in my arms, and he was not you.
And deep inside me, he came,
but he was not you.
