Went to see the da Vinci exhibition at the National Gallery yesterday. Well worth the four hour wait in the rain! Absolutely amazing… Made me want to pick up a pencil again.

Places I have lived…

My village back in Cheshire.

This building on Merton Street, Oxford. Or at least, the 70s concrete monstrosity that lurks behind its quite-nice exterior.

Magpie Lane, Oxford. Formerly known as Grope Cunt Lane (I kid you not), I lived on the site of an old demolished brothel. In fact, you can see the window of my old room on the top floor.

Corpus Christi College quad, Oxford. Well, I lived in one of the buildings just behind the quad, overlooking Merton chapel.

Warwick Estate in West London. Bit of a change but across the canal from the very pretty Little Venice.

Tufnell Park, North London. Within walking distance of Camden Town and Hampstead Heath and full of huge imposing Victorian semis.
