Welcome to the Hotel Nowhere

Brilliant - convert oil rigs into hotels. Just the thing for people who don't actually want to go anywhere. I like to think the rooms arriving on the container ship already have people in them. Bankers perhaps, they like water skiiing, or so I'm told.

'The Sea, The Sea' - perhaps Iris Murdoch's sales will improve... But I fear the opposite. Afterall 'novice-shagging' has overtaken reading as a pastime today, has it not? (Red tops deliver.) Enid Blyton can finally be laid to rest, surely?

Whatever happened to youth and the ageless wonder of innocence and imagination? (Money-spinning corrupting and corruptible amoral and immoral parents, that's what.)

But give me the sea all round (a calm one) and I will remain calm. Not my idea of a romantic break though - that needs solid terra firma at all times, even if only on the horizon...

A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.
