Yes A, I'll be there. Have to be near Bond St until about 7.45 but will shoot down the Jubilee line as fast as now-time will carry me  Having missed another r3ok shindig I have to ask; did you really shoot the Jubilee line down? (trying to visualize an anti-underground gun) |

What would you need a gun for? Just put some leaves on the tracks and Bob's your uncle.

One is drawn by the above photograph to contemplate the particular object that seems to divert the wide eyes of the dark-haired lady on the left, and the fondness with which her hands cradle her scarf at the same time. And the particular implications of the eyes of the red-haired lady which, when combined with the hint of a grin in her smile, suggests this expression may in part be a response to the particular situation in which the dark-haired lady finds herself. May we perchance speculate that the presence of some fair member of the male species, in the direction of the dark-haired lady's gaze, could have prompted such a situation? |

May we perchance speculate that the presence of some fair member of the male species, in the direction of the dark-haired lady's gaze, could have prompted such a situation? A telling reading, Ian. But, tut tut! Uncharateristically, you omit to consider that the said re-haired lady's 'grin' (and we may perhaps liken the ambiguity therein to a certain work of Leonardo's, might we not?) is directed at a fourth person - the photographer him or herself, as well as note the obvious fact that the dark-haired lady's 'gaze' (if that is not to over-interpret) is not. Now, this raises the fascinating possibility that the 'grin' shared between redhead and photographer is one of cunning complicity in the scenario you convincingly outline. |

A telling reading, Ian. But, tut tut! Uncharateristically, you omit to consider that the said re-haired lady's 'grin' (and we may perhaps liken the ambiguity therein to a certain work of Leonardo's, might we not?) is directed at a fourth person - the photographer him or herself, as well as note the obvious fact that the dark-haired lady's 'gaze' (if that is not to over-interpret) is not. Now, this raises the fascinating possibility that the 'grin' shared between redhead and photographer is one of cunning complicity in the scenario you convincingly outline. Indeed such details assist in the fine nuancing of the interpretation. One may speculate that this particular 'grin' between redhead and photographer, thus asserting a certain form of attachment which is consequently denied the dark-haired lady for reasons of unconsciously absorbed predilections towards monogamy, is the precise factor which leads to the dark-haired lady looking elsewhere for that which will nourish her gaze? But one might also notice additional qualities concerning the dark-haired lady, in particular to do with her scarf. Its colours and the shape in which it is being pressed clearly serve to effect a resemblance to a creature first observed in the Garden of Eden. Herein lies a particular ambiguity that has been carefully caught by the aforementioned photographer: this apparition of a reptile-like creature may be interpreted in the terms of the good Sigmund Freud (an interpretation confirmed beyond question by the manner which the front of this dark-lady's hair has come to assume), or possibly as connoting a sense of impending evil on the part of the dark-haired lady, as such demonic qualities have been associated with that creature since Biblical times, or alternatively as to betoken the fate of one Cleopatra, or also to invoke the said lady's self-defence, with the assistance of that creature, from whatever actions the object of her gaze may be pre-empted to take upon becoming the recipient of such a gaze. The skill and sheer artistry of the photographer is demonstrated by the very fact that he or she is able to capture such a multi-dimensional phenomenon, which can be safely said to incorporate all of these interpretations. |

I think it must have been the "old" bloke with the silver hair - he looks dumb enough to have "managed" it without even knowing! Baz  |
