Glorious morning in the capital although I think DD1 and her transportation needs are scheming to ensure that I can make nothing out of it.

Should leave plenty time for coffee.

'ning

gloomygrey and mild again

coffee swigged, off to sip bubbly and ogle some art in a bit, same artist as tuesday's trip

from the blurb: "...the work oscillates between utopia and dystopia, revealing hidden layers of history and questioning the construction of exoticism...that speak to the ambiguity of our time, where the sublime beauty of the sky coexists with the looming threat of environmental catastrophe...where history coexists with projection, science with myth, and the real with the artificial", i rather like it

Morning
It was bright and sunny here at first but it’s dulled over. Might walk Bertie when I finish my coffee I was thinking about riding my bike but I’m still coughing up lots of stuff.

@sungod that sounds like the same AI that wrote the Glasgow Willy Wonks experience.

I don’t understand art, but I can appreciate it. If art can be a beautiful building which, considered, is art then so be it. And I appreciate that.
However if a banana taped to a wall by some pretentious French (and KOTMH is in on this) turd is pronounced as art then let the thieves of the Louvre fill their boots.

On a lighter note I’ve finished early but still WFH and going to get a few jobs done.

Lousy day, light rain non-stop from sunrise to sunset. Had to go into town for a few things which made a rubbish day worse. Grrrr.

Spent a couple hours in the shed reassembling trainer bike till my fingers got too cold to bother. Finish that tomorrow maybe.

I myself am not a collector however I did pick up a cow parade cow from Mijas Pueblo and a cyclist from Santorini.

Temu probably sell the same for £2 but they don’t sell memories.

i had 'orchid island' to myself, it lasts almost twenty minutes, immersive experience you can lose yourself in, there're a few paintings and sculptures too, will go again

imo well worth it if you're in london in the next few weeks
