I see that Dieter Roth has finally got into the Tate Modern, and i think deservedly so, after having a retrospective in East London last year. You will find some of his ouvre on the Fifth floor of The Tate Modern.

Should have been in Ashford today but courier company screwed things up so doing job now next Thursday,and getting a cancelation fee as well which helps from Camden based Outlook Research who are the company i am doing this job for.

Another DVD through the post this morning  ,and another foreign film, "Pocket Money" directed by  Francois Truffaut via Amazon at  a cheap £3 including postage. Will watch over the weekend together with his adaption of "Fahrenheit 451" ,a classic piece of science fiction from the pen of Ray Bradbury.
 
Talking of movies , in today's Guardian pull out section "Films and Music" a list of the Top Twenty foreign films as voted by readers - and some fine stuff in there which i already have plus others i  need to explore- nice to see both "Delicatessen" and "Amelie" in the top twenty - but Eisenstein's "Battleship Potemkin" appears at number 25.

Also a pull out section on the legacy of the Tony Blair years which reminds me of a Frank Sinatra song "My Way" in which he says that he did it his way and "regrets, I had a few". Perhaps a swansong for Tony as well?

Doing some MS work for Service Science, who really do pay well for mystery visits , which includes another visit to Eastbourne's Grand Hotel to check out their leisure facilities. An inclusive fee of £30 for the visit.

Talking of science fiction the results of [profile] bagrec 's poll should be fascinating to read.
