Camp Idle in The Times
05 August 2005
Back in June, a load of Idler readers went on a weekend retreat at Dial House, the arts centre run by Crass founders Penny Rimbaud and Gee Vaucher. Editor Tom gave a talk, as did John Nicholson, Jay Griffiths and Penny Rimbaud. John Moore played songs round the camp fire. So far so good. But the whole thing has been written up in a piece in the Times Saturday magazine, to appear tomorrow (6 August 2005). So you might like to take a look. We await the article with some trepidation, as who knows what cruel spin a Murdoch paper might put on our band of idle warriors?
"The answer to how to live is to stop thinking about it. And just to live. But you're doing that anyway. However you intellectualise it, you still just live."
