Just wonderful!

Yes it made a great present. (Thanks Moira). Just read the last page. We've never met but I've lived on the cut on and off (three boats) since 1990, a southerner though. Always lovely to have good wordsmith validate parts of ones lived experience. Many thanks. I'll be recommending it.

This is rather wonderful. I miss working with these old tape machines. Liked the Revox B77 best. Now they can have a new lease of life. Bravo!

This is where it should come from. Clenchwarton Marsh near King's Lynn. I'm old enough to remember it being sold from a horse and cart.

What the actual F*** is M&S doing selling Samphire FROM Israel in a shop near the east coast marshes (Clacton)

Old geezer fully awake to the craving sensation but not attached to it. Life can't be avoided.

Well the audience at King's Place want to read it. x

Starting something without a proper plan is a recipe for disaster. Especially when it comes to combatting the climate crisis. That's why we’ve joined forces with @chrisgpackham.bsky.social, Drag Race UK star Crystal and Dylan Bachelet to help demand a #BigClimatePlan that delivers a brighter future.

Mmm .. I thought you were going to a lot of effort to see the Mayor of Haringey!

If "god's" creatures aren't sacred.. I don't know what is? #churchofengland rewild your land!

Proud to have been part of this essential action. Disgraceful that the established church is party to such degradation of wildlife in the UK.

Once seen hard to erase from one's memory. A great and poignant photo.

Highly recommend this stunning film. Amazingly shot in secret in Iran. #seedofthesacredfig

Just finished "How fascism works" by Jason Stanley. Got the shivers at many points. Is this where we are going? Excellent book.

Yep .. contemplating resigning my membership right now. I had such high hopes.. now dashed.

The Focaccia was fab!

In endorse this wholeheartedly. A beautiful film. And here's an interview with the directors, a brave couple ✊🏻

Found this magical place today "Parole d'oro" in the hills above Lucca. It collects water once transferred by the Acquedotto Nottolini into the old city. The walk worked up an appetite for yet more pasta in the close by Casina delle Rose.

A little seasonal offering from my choir. El año viejo "I won't forget the old year. Cos it gave me some really good things: It left me a goat, a black donkey, a white mare and a good mother-in-law" youtu.be/p6vPpr60QIM?... Wing It Singers wingitsingers.org.uk

Met all these lovely people, today, helping out Ben @pinholelondon with his "Pinhole Photography for Wellbeing" at the Dugdale Arts Centre (Enfield) Such a great project. #pinholephotography

It seems a few people enjoyed one of the photos from my old project on UK Fairgrounds. These were shot in 1977-1978 during my final years at Harrow School of Photography. I'm pleased to say they are now part of the National Fairground & Circus Archive at Sheffield Uni. #photography #fairground

Sure I understand your point.

It's all manipulation! Do you think your eye and brain are like a camera? We create images in the brain from tiny amounts of information. There is no pure image.

I love Bill Brandt. His moody, later photos were a real inspiration when I was a student at Harrow School of Photography.
