Here’s a cheeky robin, unsuccessfully trying to hide behind the chain on the floating table. Though today started off quite dull, the afternoon was gorgeous. The sky was blue, the temperature cold, the sun was big. A perfect winter’s day. … Continue reading →

A week in 30 seconds

Posted on November 14, 2011 by Gary

Tonight I went to the Farnham Maltings to see a show called Death’s Cabaret (though I do keep calling it Death’s Cabinet for some obscure reason) with Dawn. I’m not exactly sure why it was called a cabaret. Actually, that’s … Continue reading →

Boats, blondes and big bangs

Posted on November 12, 2011 by Gary

We had a very big day today. It was our second London Saturday and, coincidentally, it happened to coincide with the Lord Mayor’s Show. First up we popped over to tour the new Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior III. I took … Continue reading →

Path & plumbing

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Gary

It’s been a cold and dusty day at the house. Cold because the plumbers have been installing the new boiler which means there’s been no heating and dusty because the brick saw has been gradually getting closer to the back … Continue reading →
