I have been meaning to go to this shop, seduced as I am by the gently incoherent yet poetic description she gives of her method:

how goes the race of life?
enjoyed the Blair/ Hitchens debate, I give it to Tony (seeing as I am also a man of faith!) - he was more articulate, impassioned and reasonable, Christopher was playing to the audience for laughs a lot of the time but did make some good points. What's your take on it?

Even the rhododendron a splash of blood in the garden, or parachute silk fallen from sky on a clear day at the start of life and the shot forever echoing in poems.
