Finally I've got the internet at home. My lovely estate agent arranged it and it's up and running but it's so slow. Not only is it slow but a lot of sites, like BBC iplayer and Spotify, don't work if you are not in England so I've invested in a proxy. BBC radio has been blocked by censors and quite rightly in my view. There is nothing so subversive and a threat to social order as middle class outrage as expressed on Radio 4. But now I can go through the proxy and listen to their grumpy moaning as often as I like.
Now I'm more plugged in to UK media I found this video clip which made me think of home. This guy has been painting on chewing gum in and around Muswell Hill for a few years now. Watch the clip as he talks about his work whilst lying on the pavement outside Muswell Hill library. It made me feel quite homesick for a second or two.
