Right then...I've begun the 3rd album (the follow-up to 'Speak For Yourself'). I'm going to write a more frequent blog as I did with the last one so you can keep an eye on me and make sure I'm not slacking! I wonder how it's gonna turn out? How exciting! You're very welcome to comment but please don't ask me questions on here or i'll never get any work done. You can email me with any questions you have and every month we'll pick 20 from the virtual 'hat' and post them. Send your questions to: igrill@imogenheap.com

Much much more to come! Love, fluv x i x Wheeeeee!!!

Windows wide open

Hmm. It's pouring with rain outside but it's warm and the air feels fresh now the thunder and lightning have passed. I love it when it rains really hard. Feels so cosy being up here in this little flat watching the rain bouncing off the red busses' roofs below in the . The sky is a dark orange and I"VE GOT MY LAPTOP!!! wooo hooooooooo! I have wanted one for SOOOOO long and here we are together at last. All wirelessly networked up and everything! So i've been playing non stop with it.



I haven't actually started on this biking expedition yet. Since we last spoke i've been knocked off my bike by a crazy excited tourist who seemed to forget that roads were meant for vehicles for a moment and I happened to coincide with that moment unfortunately. We were both ok only i was aching for a while and had to tie a sock around my ankle to stop it bleeding on the way home...then I got a message from my sister's flat-mate saying they were in the hospital coz a blister she'd got just from some new shoes had gotten infected and she had something called Cellulitis! agh! She's fine now though...poor thing...

this doesn't do the dish any flattering favours.

Found an Okonomiyaki restaurant in London (the only dedicated Okonomiyaki place in EUROPE!) Oh god i love this stuff. It's just like a huge omeletteĀ but with noodles, mayonnaise, bonito flakes, some magic sauce, and whatever the hell else you want to put in it...me... asparagus, prawns, chicken, and Kimchi (Japanese cabbagey thing) Hot dang it was good! Best of all you get to cook it yourself on a hot slab in the middle of the table...washed down with a couple of very tasty beers. Done my VAT finally...bought a compass and loads of OS maps for my trip. Not that I'm going to need them! I can't do anything by halves me...

Saw Guy on Monday. It was great to see him again...been a long while for us after spending so much time together busy being frou frou...really nice to see Sean too (guy's engineer/ pro - tools operator) They played me some stuff they'd been doing. Mostly with this Norwegian girl called Kate Havnevik.This is show she did for the infamous morning becomes eclectic show last week.

And some other stuff o won't bore you even more with!

Hope to be going on Friday weather permitting,,, i'm so glad i checked before i left. %0 mile an hour winds, thunder and lightening would've made for a good start to the holiday wouldn't it!

Ja...

So er...

that's about it really...i yo yo between the can't drag me away to as lazy as they come...can't believe how much daytime TV i've watched! HELP! what's happening to me...come friday i'll be out and about getting a sore ass following an extremely long watery snake.

love love

Hi Immi.. Judging by today's weather in Brighton, I'd say oilskins and sou'wester would be mandatory for Project Bike Ride..
Hey.. is Frou Frou now dead, or just put on hold, owing to other commitments you & Guy have..?
PS.. that Okonomiyaki stuff..? I checked the list of ingredients you gave.. no mention of the earthworms which appear to be escaping in the photo..!

re: worms...they weren't there when I put the photo up!
RE: frou frou..we're not DEAD! We're just doing our own thing right now. Still good friends and i'm sure in the future we'll do more frou frou stuff. It just feels right to be doing what we're doing now...x
 
Immi,

It's good to hear Frou Frou is not dead. I think you 2 make a wonderful team. Highly anticipating the new album. Sorry to say this, but that dish looks nasty. Have fun on the holiday, sore ass and all. LOL
 
It's great that you're spending your time on other music projects too... it's another way to grow up musically and have new experiences ;)
Can't wait to hear your new music Immi.
Woah how can you eat something like that? it looks "brr...." *shivers*.
Ciao! ;)
 
Yum! Okonomiyaki is one of my all time favorite foods -- so far only my good friend Aaryn can do it any justice I've found. ;) I can ruin the surprise of the "secret sauce" for you if you like? ;)
