Tomorrow I’m due to head off to the Attic of Doom to do another (another… another) shoot with Mr. Shadowshow.  I was having a look through my old hard drive the other day and I came across these photos from what I believe was our second ever shoot… it seems hard to believe that there was a time when I’d only shot with Simon twice.  These pictures must be four or five years old by now.

Only one of them has been edited, and he will probably kill me for sharing the rest, but I’m going to anyway

As you can see, I smoked just as much then as I do now (even more probably, as my still relatively young and healthy lungs were much more resilient).

I also have a bruise that (as Simon put it) resembles a relief map of Madagascar on my right breast.  I remember exactly how that happened, but feel disinclined to share the story at the present time.

Ah, youth!
