HHD #4.

After an evening on the black sofa, wrapped in a single duvet, watching the brilliant Mythbusters and testing acrylic paint, I resumed my work on with Stem Courts. In the bath with dictaphone recording, Stem addressed the audience, joking and weaving observational anecdotes that will be the runway for his ['eyes closed please, I know that's difficult in this climate of terror' - shit] Self-Help Poetry.

Walking In Chorlton, that unrealised Cockney jubilee featuring rent-a-rapper Sprueman, was also slightly developed - I have found that bedsprings can sound enough like a bass drum from a marching band. This will feature in the profile of my musician character, who is at present nameless.

His voice is deep and must have cost his parent/s or guardian/s a lot of money in the fifties. He is interviewed off camera, with the camera pointing at his infamous armchair. He cites Banksy and The Residents as his 'methaphysical heirs'.
