A Bestie (Lol)

Hi FAU Bloggers,

Today I'm going to tell you about Paul, who has been a really great friend of mine for since 1988. We met at a really large photography studio in London. I started a job as an "on-set" photographer's assistant for Habbit, a well known furniture store in the UK. Paul had been working at the company for a couple of years so he had to give me some basic training. We got on really well. We found out we had lots of things in common, especially related to music. He was a dj and I was a musician. We both had similar musical backgrounds and shared a love for a wide range of styles and artists. Part of our job was to transport furniture to on-set locations and install it there. Habbit would rent out somebody's house for the day to take advantage of a particular achitectural style or for room with a view of a famous landmark. Because of this we spent hours driving around London and we got to know the city really well. Paul is a Londoner so he already knew the city well but he also managed to learn all the shortest routes. Later in life, he put this knowledge to good use and became a qualified London Taxi-driver (a "cabby") which is a great achievement because the entry test is extremely difficult. 

I see Paul ever time I go back to the UK. I often stay at his flat in London which is full of thousands of vinyl records. When we were younger we used to go out to parties, gigs and clubs. Paul got involved in making House music and he released a few albums with another friend of mine under the name Deep Freeze Productions. Nowadays, we spend our time listening to music and chatting over a beer or going out to see a band or some old-school dj in a dive bar:) I saw him for the last time in September, 2022 on my way back to Chile.

Here's a track by Paul's band:)
