tits and typo starts next week, you might make that one.
i think eileen grey is on at the design museum just now. i generally like the design museum quite a lot.

i've also heard good things about the jeff wall exhibit at the tate modern and the araki at the barbican is by far the best thing i've seen this year.
wow. that was a bold statement. i probably don't mean that.

I went to the design museum last weekend and it was rather dull and disappointing, takes like 30mins for your £7. I would check Jeff Walls' light boxes at the Tate (most of th eusual stuff is closed as they are rehanging) but more than that Paul McCarthy at the Whitechapel is the best show you will see this year.

(Dec 1 05, 02:45)I think it was the way she was licking that plastic deer carcass... sent a bolt of lightning south, next thing you know I'm bone deep in a six foot lizard.
I disgusted even myself with that. See what holidays'll do for you, eh?

Maybe not a "Blockbuster" art show but i REALLY want to see "The West Indian Front Room: Memories and Impressions of Black British Homes".

- agentfour0
i walked past this today on my way to work and peeked through the window. If you liked last years it should be good.

this morning i asked what people wanted to listen to as i have speaker control here and someone said easy listening and i was CERTAIN she said "sleazy listening" which i much prefer
is it possible to have dyslexic ears?
- rasko40

if could go to london next week i would def check out the tits and typo exhibition
- paraselene0
i totally have dyslexic ears! i thought i heard a really funny something last night that was totally unrelated to what was said, but i can't remember what it was.
be glad you didn't see us last weekend! it was shepard's bush, anyway, and a bit grotty. lots of agro kiwis. but a good time was had by all, anyway.
- vespa0
hehee did you start cracking up and going "HAHAAAAA THAT WAS A GOOD ONE!!!" when someone said something really serious like "my mum just had a hip replacement"
- kelpie0
haha 5timmers, "bone deep" always a classic ;)

I'm the same with hearing things not properly. What's worse is saying 'pardon?' and still not getting it.
I just can't ask again for the second time.
Jesus, imagine if you did and you still didn't understand...As for London. I would do all of the above. Read's like a list of all the stuff I have been meaning to do if I wasn't so busy...
