Sebastian Horsley is dead.RIP.
What is going on in Soho?
Too many people are dying.
There has been a fantastic amount of interest in Sebastian since he died; some of it negative but the majority positive... I did not know him well; I met him once or twice in Soho, but I do know that he was for all the criticism, an original! He will be missed.
Don't go breaking my heart Kiki Dee.
You know what. I kissed Kiki Dee tonight.
she said; Where have you been all my life?
Ask Tilly. She heard it.
Kiki Dee. Her hair was the colour of hair dye.
I don't think she really wanted to know where I had been for the previous ten minutes let alone all her life.
That's show business.
I wanted to say to Tilly: I know where I want you to be for the rest of my life!
But I didn't.

Ode to a departed tooth.
Tristan has been having dental problems... Ouch!
My teeth are out in sympathy.
He sent me the following which I suspect may refer to something other than a molar:
Your absence has left a void
which I have filled with pain
The exquisite agony
taunts me with your parting
Although I realise that when the pain goes
I shall remember you for what you really were
It hurts too much to miss you right now.

Last years notes.
When I am gone
first drain the blood and set aside
Burn me
Mix ashes and blood with cement
Cast bricks.
with which to build a folly.
Build it in the meadow where we were happy.
According to last years notes.

The Island experiment, Sandy Lamb and the World Cup.
To the Tabernacle last night for the'Island Experiment'; an evening of live music, which, considering it clashed with some football event or other was the place to be. A very upbeat happy occasion.
Among the acts was Sandy Lamb.
She is great!

The effect of air-freight on poetry.
Sorry about the sound quality... I need a techie type to help on that.
