Following an insult by another London team, referring to the relatively small size of Brentford, the fans have turned this phrase - 'You're Just a Bus Stop In Hounslow', into a football chant/song.
I loved the spirit of the fans that turned the insult into a positive thing.

I attended Cordwainers College ( part of London College of Fashion ), for two years studying Accessories Design and Manufacture, which involved producing art work and design drawings. Following which I worked in fashion for the fifteen years, I also made and sold jewelry.
After a long career in several creative industries, I now devote all the time I can to painting - it gives me huge pleasure if someone likes what I produce enough to hang it in their home !
I am a fan of the Noir films of the 1940s, the mood and long shadows definitely influence my work and I look for scenes to paint that have that dramatic tension.
I make semi-abstract road-scapes and river-scapes using acrylics and oil paint, on stretched canvas or linen.
Living in West London I have access to the river Thames - a constant source of beautiful watery views. I also find inspiration painting the Great West Road - which is three minutes walk from my home.
The structures of the flyover and underpass create a great framework for a painting, and the coloured lights bouncing off the tarmac add drama.
The reflected road lights remind me of reflections in water, so I would say overall that although the subject matter may seem diverse, the theme is always - atmosphere, reflections and light.
I use acrylics, ink and water-based oils, working in many layers to give depth and texture to my work.
