A Decade of Septembers

September 2009 - age 37
A long walk with Joe throgh Benfield (?) Valley Park. Trying to find the observatory. Finding a delapidated mansion surrounded by trees. Onto the scrubby Sussex downs and back again.

September 2008 - age 36
In my room at Wilbury Crescent painting. The balcony doors open and a blue twilight rushing in. 'Isolation' by Dust of Insects. X-mal Deutschland. I don't know why I connect the latter with this September. I didn't (and don't have any on my MP3).

September 2007 - age 35
At Telegen. Not making the sales. Walking back home to Wilbury Crescent. Listening to an album by Arcana.

September 2006 - age 34
Long walks along the sunny promenade just before sundown. A man with stilts on watched by everyone. A week off work from the petrol station.

Setember 2005 - age 33
Working with Monika during the evening shifts at the petrol station. Thinking about the September of 1997 whilst on a morning shift there.

September 2004 - age 32
No real memories of the month.

September 2003 - age 31
Kath. Walking back from Oriental Place were she lived to my new flat at Buckingham Street.

Unemployed. A holiday to Malta shortly after 9/11. Al and Paul's flat at Montpelier Road.

Septemer 2000 - age 28
Walking from where I lived in Moulscoomb to Brighton centre. Rain. The long slope down onto Lewes Road. Listening to 'Spirit the Earth Aflame' by Primordial.
