ice white mattress - 01.21.04
submitter: Salinger
location:Neal Street, Covent Garden, London
I told Mandy about streetmattress.com this afternoon. Within the hour, Mandy's sister was busy documenting mattresses in the West End. An excellent first point don't you think?

True, Wim. She also was able to stand close enough to look completely involved with the photo, but not close enough to actually catch something from the mattress (a tick, a louse, etc). She even wore colors that wouldn't take the spotlight away from the matt. She's better than I thought. I'm impressed.

In regard to the royal crown on the round box she apparently drags around, due to the fact there is a touch of red, the angle of her arm to the body a perfect match with the angle of the mat to the ground, I suggest 8.7, se could make careers as a professional first pointer

On second thought, I was wrong. This lovely lady did a better-than-average first point, so I'm raising her score up to 7.8. I realized, since I'm not a pointer, I have no room to judge. Sorry for the error.

The idea of an avant garde point raises all sorts of questions. Perhaps it would have been appropriate in Rotton Scaleyfish's Questionable?

Just being in the shot is half the battle. Well done.

I am the novice pointer in the picture and, although I went for the straight point, I had toyed with the avant garde approach, perhaps from up the tree or, to be truly avant garde, pointing away from the mattress. But then I thought that was just too ambitious for a first point.

Sharon, the lady in the picture caused a great flurry of interest from passers by who seriously wondered if she was going to take the mattress home with her.

Her pointing techinque is a bit novice, lacking the needed enthusiasm, but she's smiling, so all in all I give her a 6.8.
