I was in Paris over the weekend to celebrate my 28th (gosh!) Birthday as it was on the special 12.12.12 date everyone has been talking about. Flea markets, design hotels, cafes, restaurants, cemetries, piano bars, walks along the Seine and across the Pont des Arts, Montmartre and the metro... I loved it all! </div>

We stayed at the fantastically cool <a href="http://www.mamashelter.com/paris/">Mama Shelter</a>, highly recommended for design aficionado's and very easy access to the <span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Père Lachaise Cemetery </span></span>(a whole post dedicated to the cemetery coming up). Former multi-story car park in the scruffy 20th A, given the full on Starck treatment - day glow pop-art kitsch, graffiti and chalkboard walls, cartoon character cameos and hotel-giftshop erotica.<br />

We visited the Marche Vernaison (near Porte de Clignancourt), one of the wackiest flea markets I've been to... unfortunately (for me) and luckily (for my husband) most things were quite overpriced and so, all I walked away with are these photos and nightmarish memories of dislocated doll's bodies, bizarre taxidermy, French revolution-era military uniforms, medical dispensary paraphernalia, death masks, vintage B-movie horror posters and dwarf all-white Santas!<br />

We ate at the <a href="http://www.mamashelter.com/paris/restaurants/restaurant/">Mama Shelter restaurant</a>, <a href="https://www.discover-deliver.com/Places/Europe/Paris/Le-Germain-and-Germain-Paradiso.html">Germain</a> and <i style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://www.coutumecafe.com/" style="font-style: normal;">Coutume Café</a><span style="font-style: normal;">; and drank </span>vin chaud<span style="font-style: normal;"> (hot wine) at the Piano Bar near the Sacre Couer. </span></span></i><br />
<i style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i>
<i style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Germain is a Wallpaper guide recommended cafe/restaurant and I am so glad we trekked to see the massive yellow sculpture by artist Xavier Veilhan, the lower half of which stands on the cafe's first floor whereas the top half breaks through the ceiling and into the top lounge floor. It is designed by Iranian born interior designer India Mahdavi and worth visiting, even if for just a coffee and an entree (which are excellent, but not cheap)</span></i><br />
<i style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i>
<i style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Coutume is a simple stripped back cafe- canteen chairs, ceramic tiles and cast iron beams; the style of which you'd expect more in London than in Paris. It was recommended as quite simply the best Sunday brunch south of the Seine and in our (not too) expert opinion, lived up to its billing. Too busy enjoying it in fact, we forgot to take any snaps.</span></i><br />
<i style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; line-height: 16px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i>
<span style="background-color: white; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;">Rounded it all off with a<i style="font-style: normal;"> </i></span><span style="line-height: 16px;">quintessentially Parisian experience, midnight <i>vin chaud</i> and crepes in a cozy piano bar</span><span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 16px;"><i style="font-style: normal;"> </i>perched atop Montmartre. Touristy as hell, but marvellous all the same.</span></span><br />

We whiled away many hours browsing the shopping icons of <a href="http://www.merci-merci.com/">Merci</a>, <a href="http://www.galerieslafayette.com/">Galeries Lafayette</a> and <a href="http://www.lebonmarche.com/en.html">Le Bon Marche</a>... such lovely shops, oh! It was refreshing to see an alternative view of the design concept shop with a slightly different look and feel to that which we have become so accustomed to in London - industrial, vintage, etc...</div>

The highlight of my recent honeymoon to Kerala was most definitely the moment I looked out of the taxi and spotted a truck park! Oh yes. (Sorry to my new husband) This wasn't any truck park, this was a mega psychedelic day-glow truck, spotted while on our way to Allapuzah having landed at Cochin airport barely 30 minutes prior. This is going to be a great holiday, I thought to myself. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Kerala really did not disappoint and spotting a truck evoked the same enthusiasm EVERY time. Being the truck lover that I am, this was right up my alley. I asked the taxi driver to pull over for 'only 2 minutes' and jumped out with my camera, leaving Oli in charge of keeping an eye on the luggage and engaging the taxi driver in casual chit chat (i.e buying me more time, so he wouldn't realise I'd been snapping away for at least 30 minutes!)</div>

The paintwork on these trucks is markedly different from the ones I have seen up north in Punjab, Delhi and Rajasthan; specifically the motifs, text and colour sensibility. I didn't spot one painted eagle upon any truck down south whereas in Punjab they are omnipresent and the neon colours are very distinctive. </div>

There is great emphasis on the name in the front of the truck using very large and bold fonts. I presume most of them are the names of the truck owners, whereas others are more generic like Bright, Global, Christ. My favourite is 'Global'... universal terms these may be, but these trucks could only really be at home on the roads of Kerala. </div>

Floral patterns that are interspersed with phrases like 'God's own country', 'Prayer is Power', 'Time and Tide wait for no one', constantly remind you that this part of the country is predominantly Christian and has been since the first Portuguese settlers in the 15th Century. </div>

Oli pointed out how these trucks remind him of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Sharp">Martin Sharp</a>'s paintings... particularly the cover of Cream's album, <a href="http://digilander.libero.it/habelard/Disraeli%20Gears.jpg">Disraeli Gears</a>. I thought this was such an excellent reference, and also quite an unusual one. I wonder if the painted trucks of India were an inspiration for his work. The scale of the motifs, the layout and the neon colours all bear resemblance to Martin's work (or vice versa) but what I love is the third dimension, the wood carved details and the simpler interiors of the cabins in which they sit (unfortunately I don't have any photos of the driver's cabin)</div>

<i> Manju Cinema, Ludhiana (1945-present)</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have wanted to photograph and document for some time, the old cinemas of Ludhiana. Driving past them week after week, I look at the buildings around them being demolished and new developments coming up and I dread to think what will become of these unloved and unappreciated beauties. They are survivors in a city that is changing, where their historical significance is completely lost on everyone and it seems like it is only a matter of time before they fall prey to some developer who will want to build yet another mall in the city.<br />
<br />
With the coming of the PVR and Wave Cinemas, I am sad to say that even I haven't been to any of these to watch a film in a long time. Due to the lack of an audience, the only films they do screen are often along the lines of 'Pyaar ka Karz', 'Masti Express' and 'Husn Bewafa'. Some of these cinemas are not even operational anymore and have been derelict for a few years. The last time I went to an old cinema was in 1995 to watch '<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112313/">Akele Hum, Akele Tum</a>' with my friends on my 11th birthday. We booked a box, and during the interval my mum sent us snacks and cake. Gosh, how times have changed! You were able to do that in those days, today your snacks are taken away by security before you enter the cinema and you're forced to spend of overpriced popcorn and sweets.<br />
<br />
What I liked about these cinemas is that they were 1 screen halls with the 4 standard shows a day, the 10:00am, 1:00pm, 4:00pm and the 7:00pm. You didn't have to check the papers for odd timings and you weren't spoilt for choice. Today, despite the 20 screen multiplexes, the luxurious velvet seats, our cinemas lack soul. They are run off the mill multiplexes that could be anywhere in the world. You could be in any city and have the exact same cinema going experience, which is incredibly sad.<br />
<br />
These old cinemas didn't follow a standard tried and tested template of a chain cinema and each one was unique. The attention to detail, the architecture, the hand painted posters, the signage, even the railings and the mini ticket office where someone would sell tickets from a tiny little window were what gave them their own individual character and personality.<br />
<br />
I wish someone adopts these great buildings and gives them a new purpose. They could be cultural centres or museums, concert halls or auditoriums! So many possibilities.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Passing through Sirhind on the G.T. Road to Delhi, I came across dozens of workshops specialising in the construction of truck bodies and decorating them. Truck owners take great pride in their vehicles and some elaborate trucks take upto 6 months to complete. I was super excited when I was allowed to see some of the process and take photos!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The interiors of the truck are as beautiful, in fact more intricate than the outside most of the time. These are decorated with hand cut vinyl stickers along with beaten metal work.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I was in Delhi for the Dastkari Craft Bazaar at Dilli Haat earlier this month and picked up some beautiful gifts. If you're in Delhi, I highly recommend a visit to Dilli Haat where hundreds of craftspeople from all over the country have set up stalls selling their state's craft specialities. It's a great day out for children and adults alike. Along with the craft stalls are demonstrations and workshops for all, as well as food stalls from every state. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This is the time when all the stationery shops stock up 'santas' in all shapes and forms, whether they are climbing up ladders, playing the saxophone, in snow globes , even paragliding! Here are a few that I came across. (my favourite is the Santa in gold rimmed glasses playing the saxophone. I also took a video for you) </div><br />

The market opens at 6:30am so I suggest you get on the first train out of Waterloo, because most of the traders start packing up by midday (even though the website says it closes at 2pm) and there is SO much to see, you will need a couple of hours to look around and haggle of course! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Prompted by Twitter that morning on the train, I was informed that Parul Arora of <a href="http://blog.justnoey.com/">Just Noey</a> was also at Kempton that morning (much earlier than me I have to admit - she must have got on that 7am train! I wasn't as disciplined), it was great to come back and see that she and I had seen some of the same things. You can read her post <a href="http://blog.justnoey.com/2011/09/sunbury-antiques-fair.html">here.</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Here are a few of MANY things that caught my eye. I would've taken them all home if I had driven down and I had an unlimited budget, but as I took the train back, I only bought a lovely (very reasonably priced) mirror that is now lovingly hanging in my room.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div></div></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: center;">The first fair was <a href="http://www.artsmartlondon.co.uk/">Artsmart</a>, an event organised by the University of the Arts for graduates who have started their own businesses and creative practices after graduating. The market was held in the grounds of Chelsea College of Art in Pimlico, overlooking the Tate Britain.<br />
<br />

Despite graduating from the same university in the same year (2009), I had somehow missed coming across Sroop's fabulous work! I am so glad I was able to find her through Artsmart. Her work is inspired by Indian street culture, packaging, typography and matchboxes (right up my street!). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.paulgreenleaf.co.uk/">Paul Greenleaf</a> is inspired by old school correspondence like postcards and the techniques that went into creating those highly saturated images. He manipulates each new to create archetypal scenes that portray an alternate view of the modern British landscape.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">My favourite project is <a href="http://www.paulgreenleaf.co.uk/pages/projectInfo.php?commID=11">Correspondence</a> where Paul revisited locations of several used postcards that he found and re-photographed the location in its current state. Each new 'postcard' is accompanied by the text from the old original postcard. Genius!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

It was only one street away from where I live so very very local and a great day out. There were 70 independent market traders selling a range of products from designer-maker crafts to homemade cakes! There was live music and workshops (run by <a href="http://www.themakelounge.com/">the Make Lounge</a>) for both adults and kids. Here are a few photos from the day.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">The lovely Basheera aunty has made hundreds of <i>manjas</i> in her time, and there's no stopping her. She has six new ones carefully covered and stacked in her home in Baddowal, ready for the summer months. These are reserved for special occasions when she will have guests visiting.

They have been publishing children's books, and charts and maps for educational institutions for decades. I love the graphic quality of illustration and the kitsch colours. The IBD also have a facebook page and an album showcasing all 200 retro charts they have in print.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Spotted these fantastically kitsch 'water tanks' on the roof of a <i>dhaba </i>(restaurant on the highway) between Ludhiana and Jalandhar in the summer of 2010. I loved them so much, I went back one morning at 6am to Phagwara to find some more. There was a dust storm that morning, which made it fairly difficult to photograph them but here they are. This will be an ongoing series and I hope to find all the footballs, eagles and Eiffel Towers in Ludhiana (to begin with).<br />
