Isaac Kills Dead Men Die


By James K Lowe... and Annie Leibowitz.

If by Grant Hindin Miller aka DAD



My favourite of all my Dad's songs. I made a little video to go with it from footage shot in and around Paris. He's a Frankophile like me. You might recognise the chorus - it's excerpted from Rudyard Kipling's poem If.

If you can fill the unforgiving minute,
With the worth of sixty seconds' run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And what is more you'll be a man my son.

It's like he wrote it just for me!

RIP Guru


One of my favourite rappers of all time.

Dinner of champions - Tacos, Ginger Beer


Two chicken crispy tacos with hot salsa, cheese, guacamole, lettuce. No sour cream allowed. From Taqueria, Ponsonby Road.

The waiting lounge


The men's chair at the new Katie Lockhart-designed MAX store in 277.

The Suit


The Suit by Nicholas Antongiavanni. A good read if you're into the most pedantic elements of menswear. I am.

Tuxedo tee shirt


I like my dairy guy in a tuxedo tee shirt. It says, 'I'm formal, but I love to party'.
