two

Yesterday I fulfilled two life ambitions. I took afternoon tea properly in a hotel and I saw Alice Cooper. Sometimes days seem as though they could only happen in London. The tea was lovely: the sandwiches and cakes were beautifully turned out, the company fine and the cake delicious. As for the show, well it was everything I wanted it to be. We spotted Alice walking through the cloakroom. In a room full of people dressed as Alice Cooper, the figure himself seemed to slip unnoticed: we first spotted him from his coat. He was moving too quickly and we didn’t catch him. I didn’t take a camera because the day passed so quickly. Sometimes the good days go too fast to keep.

Recently I have been in two minds about continuing this blog. I have never quite been clear about its purpose and I am no longer sure I have the enthusiasm I owe it.
