I'll have a Karmacino - Sebbi's Karma

Not really, no.

 

Nor do I


If you were stuck on an island, what 5 things would you most like to have with you - aside from the obvious means to clothe, feed and shelter yourself....

 

A flare gun.
An unlimited paper notepad+unlimited ink pen
The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende
An acoustic guitar that miraculously never needs servicing
A photograph of all the people I've loved

If I could have one more it'd be a diamorphine syringe.

 

Surrey ain't that bad... but if you could live anywhere in the world where would it be?

 

Since we're so close to Diwali, due to my childhood I would say Leicester.

If it wasn't for that I might say America - I'm fancinated by America as a melting pot. Yeah ok, it's one big fucking supermarket among other things. And people have got drunk on the idea of "freedom" and lost it. But it's fancinating that there's a country on this planet that all the people go to and their gods struggle to follow them.

There's a bit at the start of American Gods which says:

"One question that has always intrigued me is what happens to demonic beings when immigrants move from their homelands. Irish-Americans remember the fairies, Norwegian-Americans the Nisser, Greek-Americans the vrykolakas, but only in relation to events remembered in the Old Country. When I once asked why such demons are not seen in America, my informants giggled confusedly and said, 'They're scared to pass the ocean, it's too far,' pointing out the Christ and the apostles never came to America"

-Richard Dorson, 'A Thoery for American Folklore'

 

Has South America ever interested you?
