Wishes for the weekend

Number one (and this goes for all weekends, please) some sunshine! A few fluffy clouds skudding along will be fine, but more blue than white, OK? (Try not to be too hot though, it’s nice n’all but I can’t…

Life and death

My traisping around the local cemetery is well documented on this blog (promise I’m not a goth. Not anymore). It’s Victorian and not used any more but is beautifully overgrown and maintained in its ramshackle condition as a historic…

Beach

Yesterday was fab, today was fab too but yesterday I got to go to the seaside with my long neglected Polaroid (the Spectra)… I wonder if this tap has ever had his photo taken before? I love the crispness…
