Nu


 I met Nu at the National Portrait Gallery and we went to Dishoom for a late lunch. My Neighbour Toroto was an oddity. An occassionally whimsical tale of  innocence and loss where sprites and benign monsters support two emotional needy sisters in rural Japan.

We left at the interval but spent the time laughing and talking all the way back to Thames Ditton .

Its been an important and emotional reunion for both of us

  22. Did you hear the one about the Welshman and the Irish woman?
    They walked into a London bar and ordered two pints of Guinness. Two flies are flying around the pub and co-incidentally one fly lands in Nu's pint and the other lands in John's pint. Nu pushes her pint away in disgust but John fishes his fly out of his glass with his thumb and forefinger and angrily yells at the fly, "Spit it out! Spit it out!"
