i am sparticus: Christmas Photo Face-Off Action #1

Christmas Photo Face-Off Action #1

<<< Previous Entry: Tirana | This Month's entries | Next Entry: Albania (Part 3) >>

A still damp alleyway, fast marching shoppers, golden electrified snowflakes, slightly lacking in focus. All of these things combine to remind you of one thing; capitalism is tacky but effective.

And from one end of the capitalist scale to the other, I draw your attention to three things. The small malnourished teenagers. The hard cobble stones. The way the Christmas tree gently mocks them with it's undulating bows. Just out of shot: Gonzo and Rizzo discussing earnestly the criminal treatment of the poor by the rich.

Look! A star over yonder inn!

Hayley beat me to jump, which is cool, because speaking of beatings I'm going to kick both hers and Sarah's asses. Mwah-ha-ha.

London looks pretty dank.

Dank = non-christmasssy.

Those shops are closed, the christmas tree is cobwebby, the star is a LAMP.

A star. An Inn. READ YOUR CHRISTMAS STORY (and find out the two are never connected, but whatever). Also, a lamb. A LAMB. Gosh, the thing reeks biblicality

A pub, some bollards? LOOK AT THE PHOTS (and find these photos are never connected to christmas, but whatever) Also, a lamp. A LAMP. Gosh the thing reeks tenuousness.
