On Saturday, after watching the All Blacks take out the Tri Nations tournament against Australia on a big screen at a pub in Islington, Nicola and I went down to Chelsea for a bit of a walk around King's Road. We did a bit of shopping, ate pizza al fresco, and lay under a tree in Hyde Park.
We also stopped by the Victoria and Albert museum where we came across a "design your own textile" PC kiosk. You could make choices of colour, pattern, flower type, flower colour etc. When you're done you are invited to email your creation to yourself. I did. So, here above is my first foray into textile design. Suddenly I'm lamenting. At five I loved my mother's homemade "Thunderbirds are Go!" and "Bionics forever" t-shirts (Thanks Mum!). Now, if it's not on the shelves of some King's Road retailer... On Sunday morning I got up early, cleared the weeds from in front of our house, and made a rock garden.
P.S. If you're wondering about the bracketed title, it's a reference to this Elvis (not that Elvis).
