The Rolling Stones singing "Street Fighting Man" is total nonsense.A millionaire singing working class songs is a total lie.(hello,Russell Brand!)
Saying that ,I loved this song in the 1970s.I believed every word....Sometimes artifice is a very comforting distraction.innit?
We are critical of politicians & the lies they tell us.Are we any better with the lies we tell ourselves?

| Athens:August 1987. |
Cath took this photo of me in Athens in 1987.She was still recovering from her first miscarriage.
I asked her to take it.
at the time.
I suppose ,in this photo , I wanted to give an impression of a 'Gentleman Abroad'.Living with 'real' people.[Not on some dodgy package holiday!]
on my return.("Working Class Noir"!).
