There are two kinds of empty; there’s the empty that’s full of promise, like an empty canvas or a sandbox just before the kids get in there. Then there’s the empty like a sucking void. A hopeless, desolate nothing where any effort or enterprise is for naught. You know, like my wallet 2 days before payday.

We’ve got a Kauri wood candle holder dated at over 30,000 years old, a present from a friend in NZ. It’s extremely tacky thanks to the cheap gold-metal fitting that’s been fastened into the candle hole. 33,000 years, and what is some lovely fine-grained wood got turned into artless cheap-looking tourist bollocks. There’s something profound in that about human nature.

Next time, make it into an ash-tray
