There's something foreboding about The Sower. And Van Gogh's other sunflowers.

"Pure Hokusai"
That was how Van Gogh described the quayside scene that inspired this painting. Not perhaps what one first thinks of with VG but what an image!
Come ha detto così memorabilmente Melvyn Bragg, le arti non sono la ciliegina sulla torta.
Sono la torta.
I love this.
The Arts, as Melvyn Bragg so memorably put it, are not the cherry on the top of the cake.
They ARE the cake.
Pretty sure you'll be able to find such a label on some bottle or other.
Whether it will do what it says on the bottle is another matter...
It's easy to get those mixed up in Italian too - aspettare (wait for) or the reflexive aspettarsi (expect).
Also, to be bilingual is a dream I'll never achieve.
Brava!
The Weald looking pretty good in this morning's crisp weather.

My former MP and a woman I voted for many times. She knows the truth when she sees it.
Though sadly her party lost touch with the truth when it insisted (as it still does) that men can change sex and become women. And calls out people who won't go along with that dangerous nonsense. 🤦🏻♂️
Sometimes the light at the end of the tunnel IS an oncoming train.

Five years ago today - and today.

Tbh, you could probably have styled it out... 😎

"Flooding is not as widespread as thought".
I think they may be overestimating how widespread thought actually is...

New mugs. Same tea.
Cool designs by @gailmyerscough.bsky.social - which we're very pleased with. 😁
Well,this is pleasant.

Just followed you from personal and business accounts. Nearly there.
Have a great Christmas.
The lower branches of a Christmas tree - complete with a varied selection of mainly handmade decorations - and beneath them a pile of presents, mainly in brown paper but with individual labels.
I can't work out which of us is more a slave to tradition: my partner and our grown-up son for expecting this array. Or me for surreptitiously making it happen.
But it looks like it's continuing - inc the family tradition of plain wrap & bespoke labels.
