love hotel UK style

love hotel UK style

last in, first out.

i know how to pamper myself.

i'm tempted to arrange for a permanent room here.
if they had parking, i probably would.

it's not 'hotel 17' though.


had a good today.
despite waking up here...

photographed raymond tooth (aka 'jaws') the divorce lawyer, in his park lane offices (which used to be the angolan embassy).
he was a very interesting man.

we were met first by a colleague in velvet slippers.

mr.tooth said he had to turn on the tv at one point because he had a horse racing.
'you've got a bet on a horse?', i said.

'no: it's my horse in the race' he said.
'wow. how many horses do you have?' i said
'oh, about 50 or 60' he said.

currently ranked 12th most successful horse owner in the racing post...but it's just a 'hobby'.

he was a real character.
loved him quoting danny de vito in (the classic) 'war of the roses' film discussing divorce settlements: 'there is no winning: only degrees of losing!'.

had breakfast at soho house with dave brolan.

had lunch with che and neil at the social after some meetings with Arena.
