Supposed to give current info about my gigs and recording, but has overflowed into reviews, a memoir and daily musings.

Art at:http://helenmccookerybookart.com Music at:http://www.myspace.com/helenmccookerybook I can't decide what I want to be. I thought I was an illustrator and then I turned into a musician by accident. Along the way I've wanted to be a fireman and HGV driver and it's getting too late now! I can't stop writing songs, and if I did, I'd not be able to stop drawing pictures. I wish I could play piano, trumpet and accordion. I always used to long for long blonde hair until I dyed my hair blonde and I looked disgusting. I nearly bought a motorbike (BSA Bantam), but spent the money on a bass amplifier instead and joined Joby and the Hooligans in 1977. I can't resist going into charity shops and buying clothes which I often take back the next day. I eat Magnum Classics all summer long, and mini-poppadums all winter. In spring and autumn, I don't eat anything.

Helen - Houses are ingrained with the dust and echoes of our lives. Each of those times when we were slightly different people and our worlds had a subtly different flavour. I feel for you preparing for this move, but you can take what you choose of your time there with you, preserved intact like a paperweight; and your new house is a gloriously blank canvas, primed and ready to be filled with colour.
Yeah - hope you will be happy in your new home.
