Santa to Banta- "Lets go to London." Banta to Santa- "But I don't know English." Santa assures Banta he will help to understand and talk in English as he is better than average knowledge of English. And the next day, Santa and Banta were there in London. Suddenly, a blonde lady comes and starts...
The Dunwich Dynamo has become quite a classic of the cycling world. Hundreds of cyclists assemble on London Fields / Pub on the Park in Hackney and head to the lost city of Dunwich on the Suffolk coast. The ride is semi-organised by Southwark cyclists and the London School of Cycling. Tim and I rode...
I’m back from life drawing hiatus and this time I went to the session held at the Cafe El Paso on Old Street. I liked that the directions to get there said it was “opposite a back massage place with a big spine fixed on the wall.” Hannah was our lovely model; I did some nice pen cyborg looking...
This week I went back to the Cafe El Paso for another life drawing session. Having the urge to try something new this time, I thought about drawing white on black, but then I didn’t have time to pick up materials so I took the cheapy color pencils I bought at Argos last Christmas, thinking they...
I’m very excited to say that I will be collaborating with Sara and others crafty folks on the DIY City Magazine London issue, to be published in July 2009. The magazine is available online and will feature a ton of resources for independent artists, including the artists themselves–Maribel Made...
Surrounded on three sides (east, south and west) by one of the largest meanders in the River Thames, the Isle of Dogs is a former island in the East End of London. The West India Docks are to the north of the Isle. Across the two bridges that cross the eastern and western entrances to the dock is...
If you happen to be an art lover then this is one place to go for. The whole scenario is fabulous and the buildings which are of Victorian era gives the theatres in West end a distinct presence. "Theatreland" is a hub of theatres which is more than 40. Being a tourist attraction this place is always...
Show us your happy place. Submited by edwina. My happy place is traveling!!
We're kind of nearly getting there at last....We've spent some time back in the studio this month going over the final mixes of tracks for the album 'Deletia'. It's all coming together really well now although we're up against it trying to meet our planned release date - but so it goes! :) Thought...
A collection of shots from Saturday's overnight ride to the lost city of Dunwich. Ride report is to follow if time and desire allow. In the mean time, the ITV local London news video report captures the spirit of the ride nicely. You can even play Spot the Lune RCCs jersey.

Oh man! I finally completed the purple colour set for Project Rainbow! It's taken me two months, and I'm not too proud of the fact. But I went out yesterday afternoon to St Paul's and Tate Modern with my camera with cut throat attitude that I will get my last five photos before I go off on my...
The British Museum was also a favorite haunt of mine. If they would have let me move in my bed and my books, I would have lived there. I have bunches of photos but I will start with a few...
Last Samhain, the V&A Museum in London had a late Friday night which included goth dj's spinning the Monster Mash and a bar and cool spooky tours, pus many of the exhibits were open. I found out quite late so I did not make any of the tours but I did get to revel in the statues on display! It was...
I've been tagged by Sean. Hmmm. Going to post 8 random facts about myself. I will try: 1) I was the last one in my kindergarten class to learn how to tie my shoes. My Mom still has the gold cardboard shoe with my name on it that I finally received when I mastered the difficult task! LOL 2) Zippers...
Okay, so I'm looking to move out of where I am, because I've been there for three years and that's enough for anybody. So I answered this ad on gumtree (you may have seen the ads, exhorting you to "grow up with gumtree", and then citing some nauseating story of user interaction where true love was...

How do you travel to and from work - personal vehicle, bus, subway/train, pedal power? What does it cost you per week in gas or fares? Submitted by Jan. I always travel by bus. I am a strong believer in using public transport. I'm not the most ecologically sound person on the planet, but it's a very...

The guided tour on the West side of Highgate was definitely worth it. It was a snapshot of lives in Victorian times, hearing all of the stories. The peaceful vibe of Highgate with the winding paths is amazing. Thomas Sayers was a bare-knuckled fighter in Victorian times. The fighting was illegal so...
