Last Hours

I knew I would miss all this.
Funny, isn't it?
For so long,
we've been complaining how crap Bath is.
But when you actually have to leave everything behind,
you start wondering if the road ahead can be any better.
Hanna asked whether I would like to continue with my studies
and my answer must have sounded hopelessly idealistic.
Or maybe there is just no such thing as dedication in me.
By always keeping my choices open,
there are excuses after excuses for not giving my best,
knowing my best is nothing but mediocre.
Sometimes I wonder if I have wasted a good part of my time here.
One thing is for sure though,
life is never gonna be as idyllic.
It's time I zipped up
all the hillside walks with Belle & Sebastian,
coastal winds with Natural Q
and white brick churches with Scissor Sisters
So, au revoir,
singing birds in Walcot Street

King Bladud's Pigs in Bath


原本想來個尋豬的冒險
把Bath一眾斑斕的小豬一網打盡
看看Flickr上的相片量
不得了, 可能要買張First Day Pass
話說回頭
Bath跟豬扯上關係的過程
可參考King Bladud的故事
倒沒想過
原來Bath的泉水能醫痲瘋
看來Thermae Spa為City Council帶來的債務
多少可以減輕
以後他們就不用不遺餘力地追Council Tax了!

Juan Pablo Echeverri - Miss Fotojapón



前幾天在倫敦時身上僅餘五鎊多
相當厲害的從East End走到Paddington
途中在免費博物館展覽廳待上不少時間
The Photographers' Gallery雖然位置一流
但在Portrait Gallery, National Gallery和British Museum三重夾擊下
相信很多人沒有去過
我超喜歡Miss Fotojapón這件展品
好奇實物究竟有多少幅證件相
然後...1, 2, 3...18x15x10=2700!!!!
跟我同時抵達的兩位女士都在這樣做
大家立時相視而笑
原來哥倫比亞的Photo Booth需要工作人員人手操作
拍照後第二天才可以取相
就這樣
Echeverri從1998年起每天拍照每天取相
用了不止7年時間製成這組相片
我心想: 這個藝術家好浪漫!
人家Amelie還不都是在火車站的Photo Booth做類似的事?
可是如果Echeverri每天去影相
Amelie亦每天去撿相
兩個主角也都顯得有點病態了
嘻, 不是嗎?

A Quick Note

苦戰完Unbearable Lightness和Good Bye Lenin
心情極度渙散
根本完全不像死期將至
上Wizzair和Ryanair看看機票
票價又再翻了翻
後者真是巧立名目的奸商
不服氣仍要屈服在它的"淫威"下
李牧師大概因為不夠狡詐
才落得清盤這下場

最近的新聞好像都很負面
想不到荃灣那宗命案
竟然是單兇殺案
一向不太喜歡星島日報
這位港聞記者的文筆
更是不堪入目
標點、斷句一塌糊塗
短短一篇報道竟可用了九次"有人"
十足小學生向老師打小報告的語調

對這套戲
真是百分百投降
可惜自己不懂德文
否則可以看他的東德兄弟
