'They had no conceit of themselves in a little, vain way, but they reckoned themselves the only fighting-men, simply, and without boasting. I liked the look of them, dusty up to the eyes in summer, muddy up to their eyes in winter—these gipsy fellows, scornful of discipline for discipline's sake, but desperate fighters, looking at life with frank, curious eyes, and a kind of humorous contempt for death and disease, and 'the whole damned show', as they called it.' - Philip Gibbs

- Joy Kicks Darkness. Inspiration, perspiration, deep thought, shallow thought and no thought. Pinterest, Pinteresque, Secret language, Heart of Darkness, Soul really matters to me, too much, burn burn burn like fabulous roman candles, crazy to live, Shenton Park dreams, Florstar, personalia, No flower like that flower which knew itself in the garden and fought the knife and lost, but knew itself, the stars our destination, love love love, Da Da, coffee, love, drugs & rock-n-roll, me and possibly you...exploring these things together.

By Hugh Ford circa 1998.
Hugh's contention was that this photo was how he imagined a random Perth scene to look even though he'd never seen Perth and when he gave it to me I could see what he meant/felt immediately. I believe the photo is from a street in Ballarat, near where Hugh grew up...hence "Parallel Epoch"

Hey Hugger,
Thats right man. It was a birthday card you made for me too.
This is a sad and auspicious day that you comment on my blog. Its a year today since young Maxwell passed away. His Mum is at my house and she's hosting a gathering at the Rose Hotel around 6pm. I'll have a beer for you for him man.
