Oxjam, Photography and the Sandwich Man

"Let's not prepare the BBQ while the Rabbit is still in the forest"

We have this guy that comes around every morning about.... now, and brings sandwiches and stuff - his trolley is laden with Spicy Chicken pasta, Vegetable Samosa, Crisps and drinks - stuff like that... He's a nice guy, though, I'm sure his English vocab is limited to "Good Morning, SandwichMan" - Incidentally, a friend of mine at lunch said "He freaks me out" ...he's the "Sandwichman" I'm already working on a script for the new film... "The Sandwich Man"



Photography, Right... well - I'm getting better at it, and it is pretty much ALL I do outside of work these days [and sometimes during work, too!] So, I don't know if I want to make more of it - but - you never know if you never try, right? [obviously the shot above is NOT one of my finer moments! but you have to be cunning to capture "The Sandwich man" So, sorry - off the track there... So, yeah, I'm starting to do more stuff for other people - admittedly, I'm not being paid for it yet which is OK for now, but as I progress I'll run into a problem. I HATE CHARGING - probably not a smart thing to say out loud, in a public forum that potential clients may see!

PLATFORM FOR [no] ART?

So, I heard back [in the preliminary] from TFL / Platform for Art, They tell me the following... "the space is currently planned for the forthcoming 18 months - 2 years and as part of the Art on the Underground programme is used as an opportunity for a mid/late career career artist to develop an ambitious new project." - Sorry, how's the new person to the industry get noticed? What's wrong with some NEW BLOOD? Has anyone seen the "Display" on the Gloucester Road platform four so far? - Quality wouldn't be a word i'd use...
