You're my fashion tip, a living museum,
I'd pay to visit you on rainy Sundays,
And maybe tell you all about it, someday."

"Like the wind that leaves the trees all standing
Shy and naked as their leaves are landing
Who knows where, carried on the air
Life lends a hand and then it all starts again"

To Me You Are A Work of Art

For anyone else as gutted as I am that the Bowie V&A exhibition is completely sold out (I'm told 'limited tickets' are available at 9am each day, but anyone who's booked cheap train tickets to London online will probably sympathise with the improbability of booking train tickets 3 months in advance and just turning up on the off-chance)....
