Hello all,
Ive been a bit quiet lately as Ive been sorting out a new place to live and I can only post whilst at work, which has been really busy lately.
Ive moved from the horrible dossy flat in Catford, South London to a lovely, clean, quiet 2 bedroom flat in West London. Im no longer in zone 3, an area populated by nutters, god freaks and generally unpleasant people and now live in one populated by much the same but greener and in a much quieter part of London [zone 6]!
Yes, I am paying much more rent than before but that was the only benefit of the old place. With the new place, I have a room for exclusive use as a studio!
1st pic is the studio [partial] in old place. 2nd is the new in its ready-to-be-assembled state.
Also, on Saturday Im off to spend 6 days at a friends villa near Loule in Portugal. [3rd pic!]
And one last thing, me hearties! Dont forget that tomorrow is Talk Like A Pirate Day!!!!!11! | |

Ig: London isnt 'officially' divided into zones but the transport is: link [on that map, I used to live south east, near lewisham and now live top right near Uxbridge [where the blue and purple-ish lines meet!]
I live a bit further out but it only takes me about 15-20 mins extra, door to door to get into work
adc: the move went on Monday and did go incredibly smooth. Funnily it took about 3 hours to pack the van and about 30 mins to unload, if that.
Also, the other major benefit is that Im nearer my family so I get to see them more often.

I like the usage of zone nomenclature, I feel like you live in a place where they one day might have cameras everywhere... oh wait... they do...

I find that changes like that can be very helpful. Sometimes just tearing down everything, reorganizing, and wiring up everything can be a cathartic experience. I find some level of therapy in wiring things up, getting everything how I like it. If I were you, and had a dedicated room for studio, I'd employ this opportunity to do acoustic betterment. Bass traps, broadband absorbers, and the like. I hope you post pictures upon its completion.
