We’re all drawn to weird little things. Some men fancy a dainty ankle far more than a massive set of bazoombas. Some painters notice the way someone puts their colours together, or the effect of sunset light on the colour of beach grass.
I am drawn to funky glasses, and I do not mean the cocktail variety (although that, of course, goes without saying).
And what do I say when I see a really cool set of glasses on the face of a total stranger? Why, I walk up to that stranger and I say,
“Those are really cool glasses…
They’re totally German Graphic Designer.”
It’s just what I do. And today at the Northern Voice Blogging Conference I did it to Maryam (that’s right, nobody drops a name like raincoaster…and she’s probably going “who?”).













God himself only knows how it was that a poor, overworked and obviously demented search engine, perhaps tired of finding the answers to only the most meaningless questions, reached out with the fragile query “Church etiquette for teenagers” and came up with my blog.
