WHAT YOU SEE ON THE BUS

Last Friday night as I ventured into the East for the 1st time since returning from The Grey South, I boarded a bus in Dalston. My destination was Shorebitch, & a quiet drink with Mr Cyde, perhaps a saunter around the presiding area for some further entertainment.

But on this Bus after a few minutes into it I noticed the 2 gentlemen sitting in front of me. These gentlemen, who I thought were a couple of Old Beans, turned out to be Gilbert & George. From calm to star struck.

No really I was nervous as a teenager, in the presence of 2 that have been part of my inspiration. I mean did you see the show at the Tate...stupid, the photography in the hall alone was amazing.

So here I am star struck, this a moment for a snap of a lifetime...go for it.

What do I do ?

‘Uh, excuse me gentlemen & my apologies for disturbing your journey, but I just wanted to say that I think your work is amazing. Thankyou’

Gilbert - ‘oh thank you very much’
George - ‘yes, very touching, thank you’

Did I snap a picture...no, did not have the balls...they are still on holiday. All I managed is the snap that you see, but I like it none the less...captures the moment for me rather well.

I love this city...it is good to be back.

Be Well.
