Gr8at: Back to the Future: Back in Time exhibition

There was nowhere near as much memorabilia as I expected, but it was still a great feeling to sit in the DeLorean as part of a Camden exhibition. Sure would have been fun to head back to 1885, 1955 or 1985.

Line(s) of the Day #HighFidelity

I’m very good at the past. It’s the present I can’t understand.

Taken from the novel High Fidelity (1995) by British writer Nick Hornby. Told in a stream of consciousness, it tells of the main character’s struggle to cope with a break up and how it relates to his life overall. I read it years ago but it was very interesting rereading it over 20 years later.
