So December and January have flown by. Still having a Gas in NyC ( as mick Jagger would say- reading his biography).... 
December is NY was so exciting . All the Christmas lights around the city, shopping in Macy's and on 5th Avenue, the tree at the Rockerfella plaza and sidewalk Santa's and carol services! But not mince pie was found so I was excited to fly home to England. 
A crazy day in London catching up with the VTR now smoke & mirror/UNIT boys finished with Pinchy, Arge and myself in Byron Burger.





The next morning with the help of a good Samaritan I was driving to the
Countryside in my beetle... Listening to Christmas songs ... Driving home for Christmas came on as I left the M4. A week with family is the best way to relax after 10 weeks in New York. Found the perfect snow boots in Blunsdon Market.

 
Before I knew It I was on a plane with Arge flying back to celebrate NYE in NY. We had dinner at Brasserie 8 1/2 (very SATC) and then went to central park. Thousands of Crazy New Yorkers do a midnight 5k run to see in the new year..... Arge & I sneakily drank champagne and watched the firework display. 




We spent the rest of the week discovering street art in Brooklyn...
Arge finally got to see The amazing Faile on Houston & Bowery....



Actually there's not a faile or an OBEY or an invader we haven't seen. 


We had a great week and it ended with great friends discovering Brussel Sprout pizza... YUM




 I could be a tour guide - which I was when my friend Ralph was here. We had a fun day in the snow taking photos. NYC is so beautiful in the Snow.

Went to my first gig at the mercury lounge, Fuji & Miyagi were amazing! 
It's a great venue, very intimate and considering the last time I saw them was at Glastonbury it was a big difference ! 

Last weekend was the Chinese New Year and I braved the parade in chinatown.. great fun!


Looking forward to the Oscars, Loved The Artist and watched The Descendants last night... Mr Clooney is great!

anyway....time to check out these SuperBowl commercials... and the legend that is MADONNA

love from NYC xoxo
