Day 53 – Rose petals recycled and an unusual series of searches
The problem with 365 dresses; the Mind project, is not so much the difficulty of sourcing the dresses; this is tough but if all else fails I’ll get out the old Singer and get creative with some bed sheets or become an expert in towel wrapping; the main difficulty one has is trying to think of interesting photo-shoots day after day.
This then is why I found myself today lying on our bed like an eejot trying to emulate one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood.
Since being informed about this piece of good news, the boy has unsurprisingly been having an almighty sulk. Whilst putting together the shoot for today he made a few sarcastic comments one of the best being, “I bet Dave Musson would have ironed the bed sheets before letting you lie down on them.” Bless his heart, he is a big silly at times.
Although the photos shown here are the best of a very bad bunch, putting the scene together was a giggle. The boy kept teasing me throughout, telling me I was not allowed to move unless he said so whilst throwing random buds of petals at me; at one point a particularly large posy hit me square in the nose which was hardly romantic and I muttered under my breath about how I was sure Dave Musson doesn‘t physically assault his models. We came to the conclusion at the end of the shot that Hollywood sets have a larger budget and that someone other than starlet or photographer throws the petals.
Today I had one of my most busiest blog visit days receiving almost three hundred hits. One of the things that happens when you begin a blog is that there is the potential for you to become an extremely sad person, especially when one’s feature requires regular posts and daily photography. Luckily it has been a pleasure to post and when I became aware of having regular readers I nearly cried with gratitude. The problem is however that wordpress allows one to monitor one’s statistics throughout the day, week or even year; because of this it is very easy to become a tad obsessive about one’s ratings and on more than one occasion I have been left disheartened when having spilled my heart into a particular posting only 40 people log on to read it.

Day 24 – manners in motion; indiscretion in the film industry and potential problems of using one’s phone
After conducting the penultimate train journey in aid of researching by article soon to be published on the terror of trains I was feeling particularly positive about my journey. I had managed to avoid buses or delays rand right up until the very last stage of my journey I was able to say I had a fairly pleasant travelling experience.
All that changed however when I boarded the bus to Mauldeth Road last night which would take me to see the boy upon its route to Manchester Airport. As I tried to relax and read the week’s review in The Sunday Times, I suddenly became frightfully aware of a verbal assault on my ear drums. 
A particularly toffish type character was spouting away about his latest film project in spite of being surrounded by people who were too poor to get a taxi. At first I stuck my fingers into my ear hoping he would get the hint but his dulcet tones still evaded my delicate drums. As he had not get the hint I decided that if he wanted people to hear every details of his film project and his meeting with the elusive Catherine as well as his opinion on Rio Ferdinand and the girls of Coronation Street, the least I could do was give him an extra platform for his drivel and practice my teeline at the same time.
The dress I am wearing today is strangely enough from supermarket giant, George at Asda. I brought it when I was working at McClelland and the boy was doing some recording at blueprint. I was rather poorly and had gone to work looking like a scruff so changed into this dress before going to Blueprint if I bumped into the Elbow boys or Justin Timberlake who had recorded there the previous year. Obviously I wanted to look nice for the boy as well. Today’s photos are once again taken by him and this is perhaps obvious by the fact he chooses to focus more on my legs than the dress but hopefully you can see enough to appreciate it is a cute little number. We took the photos in Fuel again as we had been to a comedy night before chilling out afterwards with some strawberry beer.
What follows is a script of the boy on the bus speaking on his phone to an actor involved in his project which sounded as though it was going to be another zombie inspired apocalyptic reel. The poor actor barely had a chance to speak but I have also left out some details to prevent too much of the project being given away and to protect the privacy of some of the people he mentioned but otherwise it is an exact account of his ramblings. Chris Moyles could have been inspired by this gentleman.
“We are going to blow them up. It’s going to be a full on explosion. Going to be a big blow…
…the only thing she was worried about (Catherine) was the bathroom scene but I explained to her that she is going to have bubbles up to her face…
She is living with one of the girls in Corrie’ at the minute and she wants her to have a part. She also knows other people that she knows in that area…
apparently she is doing some singing at the moment at a club that is owned by a United player, what’s his name, I don’t know because I don’t care about any of those United players, Rio Ferdinand that’s it, that was his name. Anyway she has sung at his club and Catherine is going to try to get us that as a location.
She was really positive, she was saying I will get you this, I will get you that. She has done TV, she has done feature films so she has picked up some contacts along the way. As they say it’s not what you know, it’s who you know
I will tell you what, the Romoans now have a mansion to live in.. it has a massive basement and a moat. They found the remains of a priest who lived there and there is a cella which we need
…she is and she is just really positive about it, she says she is glad to fnd someone like me who is not just talking about making a film but who really wants to go ahead and do it.
I know, you are a legend for introducing us…
I am going to teach her to fight how to use a gun and get her in the look of being a very interesting character who is also a gun touting maniac.
This is just when everything starts happening and the only way this film is not going to get made is if you or me die or me being completely ridiculous and stupid and not working on it.
Catherine know some people from the BBC so we will be able to get some good interest from the press and get some journalists really listening to us and interested in this film.
I really want to get a helicopter in the scene, I think we need it.
