The Ting Tings are ace!


This week, apart from moving in with some friends temporarily out in the wooly wilds of Harlow, I had the pleasure of getting Sammy Winward in front of my camera at the ever large Sprint Studios. (Love that food!)

It took a few weeks of changing locations to get her, but turns out that she is every bit the professional. Team picture by James Frew, my assistant for the day.

So what was wrong with East 17?


After yet more (small) falls in the property market it may now transpire I can move my eye out of buying in the slums of Canning Town and up to the (sometimes) leafy lanes of Walthamstow. Here is a tip - Make sure, when buying a flat with a garden, the garden is actually for sale with the flat (or not). You can do this by going on to the Land Registry website.


My camera was cast upon young performing arts students this week at London Met University. Their production of the Bakkhai required some PR pictures and since they (my girlfriend) asked me so nicely I felt obliged to lend a hand.


Their final show will be ready for April 7th.

Estate agents suck

After yet more hassle trying to buy a house (I had put offers on one which had been sold while in Sweden last week) I decided it's all about auctions. Yes, I began seeing some of the most dated decor ever devised this week. But what an opportunity to by something that can be done up from scratch...not a bit of beige in site.

Part 2 of my You Tube series, 3 Minutes, takes us on a journey around Morocco. Click this link to view it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lleStfHpg5M. Off to Poland next month to shoot part three! Ace!

Beat surrender.











Afternoon all!




Just returned from a swift jaunt out to Sweden to see some old friends, their new hotel and their daughter. Buying for a 4 year old isn't easy, but pink magazines with free pens works a treat! Visit them at the Hotel Edgar in Solvesborg. A small harbour town in the south. If sleeping in and eating great food is your bag then what better way to spend the cold winter weekends with Ken and Emma? - http://www.hotelledgar.se/english.htm





4/4 garage (or Bass-line House as they like to call it in the north) DJs Jamie Duggan and Shaun Banger Scott had the privilege of being captured digitally this week.






These boys play packed out gigs in Leeds and Sheffield and are being promoted on a new Ministry of Sound CD. Keep your eyes and ears peeled. Find them both on http://www.myspace.com/
