I believe it is only fair that trashicon start to get it arse back into gear and goes to put out its new and improved guide to the city that goes to sleep at 4am.<br /><br />With a senses day of thursday and a publication day of monday each week. Trashicon will only continue to survive if people post in ideas for articles and reviews to keep it alive.<br /><br />The same simple layout will revolve around seven simple words:<br /><br />Read<br />Eat<br />Drink<br />See<br />Hear<br />Touch<br />Live<br /><br />Each week we hope to produce the ultimate guide to the week to come.<br /><br />Also pseudo daily / fortnightly / monthly exhibitions will change according to the days.trashiconhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09067536258439506728noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24164979.post-1148906224543118272006-05-29T05:36:00.000-07:002007-04-30T23:25:46.266-07:00from

/>what is important is that yellow is the colour of the sun, which keeps us warm.. even in winter. and now that there is less and less sun to go around we should all stop and think of its importance
