Amsterdam

I went to Amsterdam and spent an entire day in the 'Van Gogh' [ pron : goch as in Gok....Wan !] Museum.  For years I wondered about the correct pronunciation of this artists name. It was fantastic.....fab museum.... plenty of refreshments... also saw an exhibition of work by the 'Naturists' and it was superb. Came home to start into History of Art essay and I lost three days out of my life....!!!! Sat at the computer day and night, unwashed and unfed, not a pretty sight, felt like Ms. Haversham in herwedding dress.  I never want to see another book on Gothic Art' ever again....actually If I could make a bonfire from the books and the reams of wasted paper I would and I'd like to dance around it like a witch....handed it in today, what a relief to see the back of it and I love C.C.S .....!!!?
