Fashion Episode

By Lawrence on June 25, 2008

Hello again. Thanks for reading. I mean this blog, not the fact you know how to read -although if you didn't know, you wouldn't be able to read this so I guess it applies.

Fashion in New York City was one of the most difficult shoots in the entire series. Something happened here that didn't happen for the rest of the entire series. No. The cameraman got drunk every night. No, the producer did too. No, the soundman was arrested in several other cities as well. In New York City … it rained. Now usually, rain isn't a problem. Certainly not for me. I'm English. It rains every single day in Britain, everywhere. That's why the Wimbledon Tennis Tournament takes three months.

Hollywood Episode

By Lawrence on June 25, 2008

Greetings loyal viewer and/or reader - LBS here with another peak under the skirt of my series.


This week sees me venture into the heart of Hollywood. It was an interesting place - actually "Hollywood" the location is quite grimy, and almost completely devoid of anything related to the movie business. But there are quite a few tourists, homeless people, and men dressed in tiny skirts, big wigs and high heels acting as cultural ambassadors to tourists driving past in their cars -usually at night. I thought that was very friendly of them. Not sure why they needed to dress like women though. Must be a Californian thing.

NASA Episode

By Lawrence on June 17, 2008

NASA - my most personal episode. Well, except for the Country Music disaster … but that's next week. I proved Space travel occurs, and is very scary. Being out at that launch pad convinced me. Those rockets are real, and quite powerful. Can you imagine having a car that could go from zero to seventeen thousand miles an hour in eight minutes? Why can't they strap a couple of those things to commercial jets? I could commute from London, pop home for lunch and help Mother with her evening ingrown hair inspection. It would be very handy. But alas NASA only keeps them for space travel … for now.

College Life Episode

By Lawrence on June 17, 2008

Hello again. Global trutherist here. Time for more reminisces about my travels around this large brown and green land.

What can I say about my time at the University of Georgia? Well, I discovered college life is much more fun here than it ever was at Cambridge … Polytechnic. That's a Technical college on the outskirts of Cambridge by the way. I decided not to waste my time with law, or medicine at the more famous local university. I knew, even at age 18, I was only ever going to be a reporter … or a dentist. Far too much reading involved in law. And Dentistry as it turns out.
