LA Story 10 – Tuesday 3 April – The Last Full Day

More old notes. Nearly there… ~ After the revelations of Monday, and as the time to go back to London approached, Cassie and I realised we couldn’t waste any time. So we had an extra-busy day on Tuesday. It started, as had become customary over the few days I was there, with a walk for… Continue reading LA Story 10 – Tuesday 3 April – The Last Full Day

LA Story 8 – Sunday 1 April – Lunch With Charlie

And still they come… ~ I met Charlie when he was a member of the Carlton Dramatic Society. He moved to LA a few years ago, because he had met a girl over there, fallen in love, “dated” transatlantically for a while, then they got together and both moved to LA. He’s really happy, it… Continue reading LA Story 8 – Sunday 1 April – Lunch With Charlie

LA Story 07 – Saturday 31 March – We’re Off To See Something Wizard

Cassie said to Brendan and I, “Let me show you something”. So we looked at each other, raised eyebrows, and followed her to the car. Then followed one of those short-yet-long journeys you seem to get a lot in LA, where we discussed ideas for a TV show based on the web site www.theyfightcrime.com, and… Continue reading LA Story 07 – Saturday 31 March – We’re Off To See Something Wizard

LA Story 6 – Friday 30 March – Burn Hollywood Burn

Surely the final chunk of notes from LA March 2007 – this is getting embarrassing. ~ A nice day today. What am I saying? They’re all nice. The weather is just great (LA doesn’t suffer from damp) and I’m feeling very relaxed. Lunch today was at a popular Chinese restaurant. Delicious, and I took some… Continue reading LA Story 6 – Friday 30 March – Burn Hollywood Burn

Settling In

That went very well last night. The last minute tweaks and figuring out where to leave stuff for easy access has seemed to work. If I sort out the Scriptless Wonder game cards on the train on the way home (or on my desk at work) I can be ready to go immediately we get… Continue reading Settling In

LA Story Part 2 – Running Through Airports

He went back to LA? Why? All will be revealed… (more dusty notes from the Moleskine) ~ It seems weird to travel during early rush hour through London to get to an airport. I’m used to driving, or getting lifts, or a taxi. But here I am in London City Airport, out in the marshes,… Continue reading LA Story Part 2 – Running Through Airports

LA Story 5 – Thursday 29 March – Watch The Skies

At dusk we went up to the Griffith Park Observatory, recently refurbished with money donated by Mr. And Mrs. Nimoy. It’s up in the hills in Griffith Park, overlooking the city, the Hollywood sign, etc. So after riding the shuttle up to the observatory through the twisting hill roads we had a look at the… Continue reading LA Story 5 – Thursday 29 March – Watch The Skies
