New: Boris Johnson’s ‘Brexit Titanic success’ was half right Nearly ten years on, the first full assessment of Brexit confirms what millions warned: Britain made itself poorer

Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study explains it:

a 6–8% hit to GDP – that's £180bn-£240bn a year – means less tax, less investment and less money for everything else.

Brexit made Britain poorer. Much poorer.

A sketch in watercolour and Indian ink at London Embankment with pigeons

An older watercolour drawing from when I used to make frequent trips to sketch in London. This shows the Embankment with lots of pigeons, a pavement artist and a couple of Japanese young women on one of the benches. This was sold at an exhibition.

Poster for LES VACANCES DE M. HULOT

I love the bit in Mr Hulot’s Holiday where the lunch bell goes and the whole beach empties.

The Arsenal. What a tifo. What a picture.

One of the most exciting sunsets I've captured. A thunderstorm came rolling in just as the clouds started to change color. Smith Rock State Park in Oregon.

"Blind Faith" 1969
Big egos tend to lead to short shelf lives for'supergroups', Blind Faith being an example of this,a few rather self-indulgent tracks take the gloss of the album,despite there being some really strong tracks as well. An album that has divided opinion on its quality ever since 1969.
