i forgot to mention in yesterdays blog while i was wandering about carnaby street with jake we had this conversation about fashion.
'jakob your very fashionable and have a trendy look.'
'no i'm not trendy.'
'you are very trendy, look at you, you're like the cat walk model looking for the cat walk.'
'i'm so not trendy dad.'
'only a super trendy person would say that.'
then someone stops us, a lady and a guy with a camera.
she asks if she can take jakobs photograph for the evening standard newspapers fashion pages. jake does some poses and answers some questions, when they ask him what his occupation is he replies, 'zookeeper.'
as we wander off he looks at me to which i say, 'well if you were not trendy before you are now.'
i aslo walk by a shop called, 'the great beast' it's a gothic type shop that has been around for at least 30 years and i actually bought my first ever ring from there. we go in and look around, they are playing 'riders on the storm' the doors beautiful keyboards slide through the air and we look at their amazing stuff. even jake likes it.
i still have that ring, it's a silver pentagram with a moonstone in the middle, quite striking and beautifully made. occasionally i will wear it but now i am to fat, you don't see many fat goths.
