Update…they’ve been claimed. Would any of my Roma friends like these books about the Romani Holocaust? They are all books I used when researching The Deathless Woman. Free if you can collect in London.

Gracias al comisario, el ex-comisario y el director de la primaria. Permissions are in place, ready to start production later this year. The night that a wáay came into town in the form of a skunk, everyone knew it was a prophesy and the end of the world was coming. . @jerrywilliamspix looks thrilled, I look like someone who has barely recovered from dengue fever.

A few helpful and protective spells for coping with evil and suffering. I think these would work on either the personal , political or global sphere. . 1. Genuine Powder of Forgetting. To forget someone who has only caused you suffering. This powder will transform your bitterness into joy and happiness, and help you master your inner self. Use it by dusting your body after bathing, preferably at night before going to bed. . 2. Powerful powder. Against the Evil of the Machete. Cuts off envy, spells, bad friendships, and all kinds of evil. . 3. Genuine Gentle Lamb Powder. Use it to always have your loved one by your side, faithful and gentle, like a lamb. Use it on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. . 4. Genuine Red Dragon Dust. It sweeps away everything. You who are the protector of the weak and defenseless, protect my enemies, both visible and invisible, from any streak of bad luck that may cross their path, and protect my family. . Hecho en México.

My first commission after art school was to design a room-size installation for the VIP bar at the Limelight club. @timhiggins_archive helped me and it was a lot of fun. Back then in the 80s the Limelight was a cool place to be. These pics from @david_koppel new book Limelight show parts of my installation behind some lovely people…Ian Dury, Siouxie, Budgie, Lemmy. Happy days.
