Black History
It is also my gorgeous little brother's birthday, so he's among some pretty great legends (that combined with his Barack Obama ears makes me certain he's a legend in
the making himself). Happy 8th Birthday Saladin! Sorry I'm too far away and couldn't be with you today. Instead I had a hungover lunch at Sophie's again. Yes the service was again terrible due to understaffing, but the food was amazing. I had a MAP 'n' Cheese, which was the most calorific, yet delicious sandwich with pulled pork and mac n cheese in sourdough bread. After a nap I went for a beach run, so I'm sure I burnt off about a quarter of the calories. But then I was wildly late for the play, with only half an hour to get ready!

Images of Malcolm X always remind me of my Dad, they had very similar essences, voices, and that tall lanky look with glasses. Here's his speech "By Any Means Necessary':
Here's Grace Jones "My Jamaican Guy", and obviously me above wearing one of my favourite t-shirts (Topshop) with Grace.
