Everything is bloody marvelous · 22 January 2007
And no it’s not a relationship thing. I think. What I need and am not getting? Oh, don’t get me started …
Eternal ramblings from a messed up mind III · 19 January 2007
10 people died because of the storm here in the UK yesterday. The train traffic was disrupted in London because of it, but I somehow managed to move around it all. One of the men who died, died in Shropshire. Which made me think about Oliver Lucas in The Vertical Hour again, as he lived [...]
Tea Challenge · 18 January 2007
If you thought Tea wasn’t a big thing here in the UK, think again. If you thought that deciding who should make the next cup isn’t a big thing here at work, think again too. Knowing that asking it the normal (verbal) way only results in an even longer wait for a cup, one of [...]
Did I really write that? Yes I did · 17 January 2007
In my mailbox: Subject : Television Interview Enquiry Hello there. My name is XXX and I am contacting you on behalf of XXX Productions: the largest independent television company outside London.

Where do you want me to go · 15 January 2007
Standing in the subway, the shuffle came up with John Barry’s James Bond theme on my mp3 player. Funny how all passengers suddenly seem to become part of a film, and how many people actually looked like Russian spies. Or was it my imagination again. Anyway, I hopped off at Bond Street. And I am [...]
When do you admit it? · 14 January 2007
I step in and I notice that something is different with this bus. The chairs have another colour, and it looks like a newer model. Well they have to spent the excessive amounts of money we pay them to travel around in London on something I thought, they have upgraded the buses on line 88. [...]
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes · 12 January 2007
This is what New York looks like in my mind. Very colourful, like a soap bubble I have to protect from bursting. It’s also what I (or about 12 of me) look like in New York if you look carefully, I’m standing somewhere on 23rd Street, where this picture originally was taken. Funny enough, the [...]
Don’t make fools of us – again · 11 January 2007
The New York version – at least you won’t get prosecuted for it there “What’s this?” I asked him. “Well you can read, can’t you?” he said.
The Script and The Cafe · 7 January 2007
A voice like Barry White, headache, and pain in muscles, that normally meant a flu is on it’s way. This time was no exception. Some would say that she was lucky that it didn’t come last week, where she was in New York. She heartedly agrees, and is thankful for that.
You’re gonna find yourself, somewhere, somehow · 6 January 2007
“What did he write in your book?” “Not going to tell you.” “Something nice, it makes you smile I can see it.” “Not too many people who can do that, I can assure you.” “Can I?” “You might, possibly.” “Are you in a bad mood?” “Well, my voice sounds like I have been hanging out [...]
Wait · 5 January 2007
“The list is empty, we need to make plans, plans, plans. Now!” “Wait, wait, wait” he said. “End 2006 first, in a decent way”. “Pffff. Ok then.”
2 + 1 = 3 · 4 January 2007
If jet lag means an attention span of even less than 0.42 seconds, feeling hungry but not being able to eat, and having the feeling that someone put the wrong head on your body, then I am in the middle of one right now.
The real world · 3 January 2007
- Don’t you feel like we have been in some kind of movie this week Davy, you and me? – Well, yes, but then – I missed the very first part. – Which? – The opening scene. – Oh, Girl leaves London. – Yes, anything special happening on the plane, who was sitting beside you? [...]
Back? · 2 January 2007
My body is back in London. My head and heart are definitely not. They are lost somewhere.
My mind’s made up The way that I feel · 24 December 2006
“Ingrid …” “Davy …., wow, how is New York? I look so much forward to see you again.” “New York is fantastic, you are going to love it, trust me. And I had a great sailing trip, I’ll tell you all about it when you get here.” “I can’t wait… I …” “But as your [...]
You know I love Christmas I always will · 23 December 2006
Well let’s not overdo it, but this year it’s really not bad. I am ecstatic, which has not that much to do with presents and Christmas trees but more with the fact that it is now only 2 days before departure and 4 days before Bill. And there was this other David Hare play …
Come on and let it snow · 22 December 2006
After nearly a year with this project, I decided to put the girl on the map. This is just a screenshot, for a zoomable and scrollable map go to the Where is the girl now page. Not in my wildest dreams could I have dreamed of such a large geographical area being covered by this [...]

Hello
So if you really love Christmas · 21 December 2006
If I told you that I have already scored a date, on Tuesday the 26th at 10 am, with a guy who is going to sacrifice some hours of his Christmas day to show me around in New York, would you believe me? Of you course you wouldn’t. I don’t believe it either, but it’s [...]
It’s everywhere I go · 21 December 2006
The Girl on my travel guide Today the girl learned something about London. Just in time … You live in London right? Yeah. Big city. Huge city! So how do you plan to get to Heathrow on Monday? Oh, easy, tube! Piccadilly Line has a direct connection to Heathrow airport, so smart this tube! Yes, [...]
