50: It’s like talking to myself

Posted by Jonti Bloom on July 27, 2007

I slip into a mockney accent whenever I talk to Carston. Saying ‘geezer’ occasionally is acceptable but he looked at me strange when I suggested we head down to the ‘rubber dub dub’.

Spot the difference

Dawn and her new brother Carston

A lover (all scented candles and knowing looks) once bought me a half coin necklace, keeping the other half for himself.

He said it was because we were like two halves of a whole. I thought this ridiculous as he made my gums bleed. But a gift’s a gift, so I kept schtumm.

Now I’ve met Carston I truly understand how similar two people can be. He’s absolutely fascinating.

Love & Light

Dawn

Little luxuries

Carston's lobster

I’ve never been into luxuries except at Christmas.

Carston likes treating people. A little dirty lady was begging on the beach and he gave her 20 Euros and a sun hat and some gum.

Later, I didn’t fancy a lobster, but I had three tiramisus.
