So, i had this birthday thing last week. I wont lie, i’m really not happy about turning 31 but then i wasnt happy about turning 30 last year either. It just serves to remind you of all the things you say you’re gonna do but dont and thats why birthdays suck. Unless you are a motivated go-getter who sets your mind to something and gets it done. I’m not one of those kind of people unfortunately. The silver lining though is presents, providing people know what you want or know you well enough to have a good go at getting you something you want. The fabulous Beandog got me this book and its really cool.

The idea is genius, Dave Navarro (Janes Addiction, Chili Peppers ex guitarist) had a photo booth installed in his house to basically document the comings and goings of well, everyone who came to his house.

Its not a really long read and is therefore a cool little pre bedtime thing and not too heavy but is at the same time really fascinating. There are drug dealers, prostitutes, rock stars and all manner of cool people in it with little strories to go with although the stories do not necessarily match the pictures on the page presumably to protect the affore mentioned law breakers.

Highly recommended reading, and with christmas just round the corner its always something you can tell that annoying aunt who always gets you socks and a photo frame to get you.
