the path to failure
By way of completeness following yesterday's failure (below), and as an insight into my sometimes eccentric working methods (especially how little is written down), here are my notes from yesterday for the tribute to Derek Jarman that never was.
The first two pages are A4 sized, separate sheets. One using a gel ink pen, the other a HB pencil.
The next pieces are two sticky notes (126mm x 75mm) in the order they were written. The third is on the reverse of the first and was folded in half. When I turn to numbers to resolve a problem something has gone badly wrong. Not because there's anything wrong with numbers or arithmetic, but because I'm virtually dysnumeric (and very unhappy about it), so it's a waste of everyone's time.

Comments
Probably it helped that the page was divided into nine segments (drawn round a box of antihistamines as it happens), thereby increasing the chances of creating a regular pattern if I stuck broadly to the sections created. The second page, in pencil, shows no discernible pattern emerging, and has some text running 90 deg from the rest.
