church


it is one of my favourite buildings. it is in one of my favourite places. so it's a bit of a winner really.
it is hawksmoor's christchurch. peter ackroyd has written a book about it. i have been told the book is very good. i just managed to get 50 pages into before i realised it was shite and it wasn't looking like it was going to get better.
one day i will give it another (probably just after i have had another attempt at joyce's ulysses.....

Good Charlotte's Benji Madden Slams Kelly Clarkson In Blog, Then Backs Off - Sorta
Rocker may not have understood that Clarkson's comments about Hilary Duff were in jest.
Hey, your site is awesome! I bookmarked it :P
If you want to, check out my new Genealogy Manual related site. It isnt anything special but you might find something of interest.

Agree - beautiful building. The revamp has been totally successful. One of those churches that makes you feel small and inadequate in a positive kind of way (if that makes any sense)

it is a wonderful building. though all the moody pictures i took of it that night have been lost in the cyberspace hinterlands....

new camera means lots of pictures to be going up at some point or another.
