Boobs and bangs

Reading an article in the Observer about how David Cameron apparently made a spech lambasting the awarding of Arts council grants to "one legged Lithuanian dance troupes", for which he has subsequently been pilloried. the article refers to the successful canoCo dance troupe which features a one legged amputee ballerina.

Weekend catch up..

PLeasantly worn out now after a game of badminton, a dash to the fabby art shop to buy indigo for Tuesday's assignment, and a late mooch round the common taking arty photos of reflections on the ornamental lake of russet trees in fading autumn sunshine. (Will post one in a min. )

Friday was the university fireworks - set to techno and chill out, a bit of a culture shock after the Edinburgh festival classical music fireworks concert I'm more used to!! and blagging lots of free Law school wine and burgers :))

Yesterday I made a meager contribution to nmg and ias's shed-razing solely by sledge-hammering one paving stone into smithereens - but very satisfying it was too - but compensated by bring stollen and chocolate spiders to follow Is's delightful autumny coq au vin for lunch. In the evening, Finnish Lodger (who had been placated by me actually doing some hoovering !) took me to a Body Shop party - like a tupperware party only with extra smelliness and random Scands and Estonians - which involved a free foot rub and was rather soothing. Now chilling with Sunday papers. The kind of weekend I need once in a while:)

And isn't the new KT Tunstall album lovely?

I think it's just a bit too specific. If it had just been a case of stringing together random words to make an obscure minority group I don't think it would trouble me - unless of course it turned out that there was a disabled lesbians ukelele Bon Jovi covers band.

I am fascinated by the idea of a one-legged Ballerina. I assume she uses an artificial limb?

I don't know - I was too - our ill spent childhood reading ballet books I think!
In the pic she is being lifted with only one leg apparent..

The old term was "Black one-eyed lesbians against the bomb", I think.
