I took the above picture this afternoon in Hyson Green, what’s weird is that you could almost be forgiven for forgetting about some window stickers (assuming you aren’t in the habit of cleaning or looking out of your windows, they’re the main two things you do with them), but if you look closely you can see Christmas lights on in the flat. Maybe the flat belongs to Roy Wood from Wizzard and he is simply fulfilling his wish?

My usual hope that I am at the station by noon and able to set up my show in peace went a little bit better than it normally does, I arrived at half past twelve today having woken up at eleven and had a record breaking combination of preparation in a short space of time. It can be achieved by making your tea before getting in the shower so it has cooled sufficiently to drink when you get out before getting dressed and picking up the case that should have already been packed. It doesn’t always work like that, but all the signs today were pointing to a good show. Unfortunately I was without Gary again, but I was joined by Simon Waldram who I’d booked via Twitter to perform on the show.

The above pictures were taken this afternoon when thankfully there was nobody looking to wonder why I was taking photographs of wheelie bins. It was in a fairly untidy looking part of Nottingham, not rough and dangerous but an area that looks unloved and in need of at least a coat of paint. I love the fact that the householder seemingly decided to make the best of a bad situation by attempting to brighten things up a little. Maybe everyone should do a little something to brighten up their surroundings?
