Here’s a picture of a sink. Not my sink but one that I photographed in Desmond’s barber shop in Peckham. From the late 80’s to the mid 90’s there was a popular Channel Four TV sitcom called Desmond’s. It was the first sitcom to feature Caribbean people in a work situation. The series was actually filmed in this barbers. The other photo is of Lloyd tending to a client who has been coming to Desmond’s to get his hair cut by Lloyd since he was a boy. Sadly, after 30-plus years Desmond’s recently closed its doors for ever. For the next couple of weeks, the photo of Lloyd is exhibited at the Peckham Space gallery. A memory temporarily on a wall.
