I like this because Minako Kurachi interviewed me about my morning
routine. I was a bit skeptical about this but Minako has a background
as a journalist in Japan and Europe as a correspondent so we had a
really good chat about a lot of things on the estate and how things
had worked out. The snippets from the conversation were put into a
voice loop and replayed in an installation in a flat with a stencil of
"a strong, very earthy, deep brown cup of tea" on the wall. I liked
this a lot. It is my morning routine and at work I have the same sort
of thing with a teapot and making tea from tea leaves, it tastes much
better and is much more environmentally friendly I put the leaves onto
my plants, after reading them for my lottery numbers (kidding).

The killers of Ben Kinsella were gangster wannabes * * By Ryan Parry 12/06/2009 (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) As members of the Market Massiv' gang, Michael Alleyne, Jade Braithwaite and Juress Kika demanded respect and loyalty. They fancied themselves as gangsters but in reality they were drugdealing cowards, armed with guns and knives, who needed ferocious Staffordshire bull terriers for protection. After gang leader Alleyne, his deputy Braithwaite and the lowly Kika were convicted of Ben Kinsella's murder, a source close to the group - too scared to reveal his identity - broke ranks to speak to the Mirror. He said: "They thought they were real bad boys walking round with their Staffs and a knife in their pocket. Mikey (Alleyne) had two Staffs and thought he was untouchable. This was his manor, no one could come down here and f*** with it. "They worked in twos for protection and they...
