New Yorkers... daughter Bea gets a day shopping in NYC today so if you hear someone talking like a Pirate that may be her. Our nearest city Bath must be the least modern city in the western world; in fact it is getting older - since the 60s all the modern buildings have been gradually replaced by mock Georgian 'shoppes' that look like they are from the Muppet Christmas carol. Pretty soon they'll make us all put knee-breeches on at the bus station.
Incidentally - and no pun intended - why are the Americans so obsessed with teeth? I know they have this thing about English people having poor dentistry but have they considered it may be the other way around? If you notice the teeth of the well-to-do Yank they look like they have bought their teeth at Wallmart - there is no character - they are unnaturally flawless. Can someone fashionable make bad teeth cool? Paint on some brown on your teeth.... you are freaking us out!
Anyway in the New York groove watch Nico and the Velvets play Sunday Morning.
