Tuesday 12.00 Just behind Oxford Street

by Benjamy @ 2009-06-30 – 09:12:22

well I said I would so I Did

here we have one of many I have seen dotted around London and it just happened to be in my way as 12 noon approached ... so I took the picture and sat opposite for a while to take a moment and think about my surroundings; people watchings great, then just as I was musing on life and the state of undress of the ladies sashaying past the cafe i was sitting out side of, a work colleague walked past so i called her over and we talked work instead so

Picture - as above
Location - just behind Oxford Street London
Thoughts - nice legs (no not refering to my colleague) quickly turning into hows your training going!

and for Eggbod - the cafe was actually playing a track by Bebel Gilberto which i was quite enjoying ... from the Tanto Tiempo Remixed Album as i recall (I have it just cant recall the track title )

Now did anyone rise to the Challenge??

Excellent Ted!

I'm playing that fantastic sultry summer toon Cada Berjo by Bebel. Is Astrud a relation?

I was nowhere interesting at 12 noon. Just sitting at my pc, working, my one foot catching the heat of the sun as it shone on the patch of carpet. Oh yes and I was listening to "tall in the saddle" by Joan Armatrading.

  Love Bebel Gilberto, I have the original releases and the remixed releases and the yall feel so summery to me.
  
  not sure about Astrud, maybe a little surf digging will reveal the answer ..I feel a trawl coming on ...
  
  aaaggghhhhh miss armourplateing .. I do like her stuff..
  
  have an album somewhere, damn trouble is all of my cds etc are over at the off grid location and i cant just reach out and put my hands on one when i fancy a listen

    I think her first album called "Joan Armatrading" was the best!
    
    All the songs on that album are excellent.
    
    Astrud sang a duet with George Michael.
    
    I went into the loft today and found a fairly mint vinyl album called "Thriller" by a little known artist called Michael Jackson. Apparently he's popped his cloggs!

        I liked MJ when I was in my twenties and he was in his twenties before he went apeshit over ladyboylooks!
        
        But I guess I will quietly store my album back in the loft and forget about it. Let the rest of the mugs flood the markets of ebay. Whilst I was up there I found a considerable number of Joe Jackson albums, Kid Creole and the Coconuts, Talking Heads, Roxy Music and masses of Doors albums. The Doors albums are not mine btw

        his place set in pop culture, his place now in the history books along with others or promise and legend status all with a troubled life.

        If you fancy a laugh, go see my new post.
        
        It's right up your alley. An illuminating reference to my music tastes as a youngster.

Is the 'roo' like the cows from a few years back? I would have taken a photo but as I was just doing maths with the blonde there wasn't much point really. I am making a point of researching my locality though for future trips x
