An excuse for a trip to France. Excellent! I agree with him,just this once.

Every time I see the passing of one of the great players from this era I think of those packs of photos I collected as a boy. They came with a 'slice' of chewing gum. I can taste it now.

This is a distraction. I have lived in Cornwall for 11 years, 33 years in the SW. I consider myself a member of our community but not Cornish. The idea of Cornwall being the 5th nation is inherently alienating to all but those born here. And BTW The Duchy is not Cornwall, assuming 'County' is 👎?

Watch out for tide going over to Île Callot John. Three more weeks and we will be on Île Grande. Have s lovely time!

Because the industries that oppose it represent the status quo, i.e. Inertia. Well practised processes of extracting wealth using a system which hides the profits of multinationals.

He also had absolutely nothing to do with acquiring the Gazan gas fields for Israel.

Wow! Pow!

A swallow visiting a nest in the porch of a cottage in North Cornwall.

We have a pair of #swallows in number 1 nest already. Making their crazy purring sound. We had 13 babies from 2 nests last year. 🤞

Three of ours arrived on Monday, one in the nest last night! Very early this year. In Brittany we saw them on April 1st in Morbihan. Joy! The best day of the year for me.

"Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow..."

John is a top guy. I used his studio for a while too.

Bunker tax. It's the future...

Wash House Press Blog by Ian Harrold | St Ives | The New Pier | New Perspectives The story and history of the New Pier, St Ives, Cornwall. Re-imagined through 3D modelling

Many of the #shipwrecks on the coast of North #Cornwall were the product of #gales barreling up the Bristol Channel. The #wind would start as a southerly then veer north west, trapping ships on 'The Ironbound Coast'.
The New Pier at #StIves fared no better.

Excellent! I think I will watch them again at some point.

Kresen Kernow might if prompted?

We did museum drawing at the British Museum, Natural History or the V&A when I was at college in the 70s. Taught by the Private Eye illustrator Bert Kitchen. Four years of it every Tuesday morning. I loved it, and i have talking about it this very day! Recommended.

There are ones out there with the bottom half textured.

Looks like a Rembrandt lamp? Maybe this, all appear to be in the states. A torchiere?

Budeful here too!

I thought zoom was dead. You should have seen some of the ones we had with the BBC in lockdown. Chaos.
