captain pugwash was here
and so it begins...
in yesterday's LA times an advance copy of MMASM season 2 episode 1 was reviewed in which they refered to me as "...the photographer perou (who in the first episode appears in a jumpsuit and bowler hat, looking as if he's just escaped from a regional theatre production of 'one flew over the cuckoo's nest')
thankyou.
sadly, all of my foul mouthed obscenities seem to have been left on the cutting room floor.
i've been sanitised for the american pubic (sic).
also sadly, i think i'm contractually obliged to not discuss the show in any way SO...i...ur...won't...
much.
work has begun at farm again: 3 carpenters in today.
DTT for a pre-production meeting for this campaign i'm doing.
was amused in the meeting when someone said 'we've got this great shot of john simms that ***** ********* took, that we like as a reference'
'yes: that IS a great shot', i said, 'but i took it: it's actually one of MINE'.
so i'm VERY glad that i got the job and not the other photographer who was unknowingly getting credit for my work'.
stopped for an hour in islington to haggle with a bathroom suite vendor.
'HOW MUCH are those taps going to cost me then?', i said.
'£299 a pair', said the guy.
"WTF???', i choked
the bathroom suite vendor looked surprised, 'yes sir...but they're bespoke: your design: you ARE getting something that nobody else has.'
'i don't care', i said, 'i've already got something that nobody else has: i've got a 400 yr old house that's falling down'.
returned to farm before rush hour.
watched a preview tape of MMASM with mrs.perou and sons.
sons get much amusement from seeing their dad on TV.
i'm undecided...
2 more days till MMASM launches on bravo in the states.
no idea when it's coming to blighty.
