We can't ever go back to old things or try and get the old kick out of something or find things the way we remembered them. We have them as we remember them and they're fine and wonderful and we have to go on and have other things. Because the old things are nowhere except in our minds now.
 Enerst Hemingway in a letter to William Horne at aged 24 from Paris.

My first pub in London at the top, now I work in the one on the bottom. I like tall pubs. Michael Fassbender drinks in my new pub I'm told and Jarvis Cocker lives three doors down.

Diana, my youngest sister, my other sister and her fiance Edd looking through an old photo album at their engagement party. It made me so happy to see them all laughing and smiling together.
