Alternatively you could already be in London with an afternoon free,
read the Guardian article (...'from Friday until April 22nd..') and
discover that, even though the article was published on Friday the 15th,
it refers to 'next' Friday - and so poised to go see it, we are in fact
too early.

Sigh.

I like the New Yorker, but those are the most intrusive ads I've ever seen, one 
popping up every 2-3 photos, so they can fuck right off, and I can't finish 
looking at that gallery, however good it is.

Of course, you then have to put up with all the whimpering and snivelling
because you've deprived them of revenue.  By "put up with" I mean, of course,
enjoy.

Tony Ray-Jones was doing similar colour work at a slightly later time in New
