Today’s guest picture was sent to me by my Newcastle correspondent and she tells me that it shows her daughter both celebrating ‘wrong trousers’ day and supporting the Dutch football team in the World Cup at the same time . She is supporting the Dutch team because she is half Dutch and if you askContinue reading “More like it”

Sedentary occupation
Today’s guest picture is another of Matilda taken a few weeks ago. This was sent to me by her mother, Clare and is one of my favourites of the many portraits of Matilda already in existence. In recent days I have often had a plan of waking up early, leaping out of bed and goingContinue reading “Sedentary occupation”
Making an exhibition of myself (and others)
Today’s guest picture was sent to me from Edinburgh by Bruce. He was trying to see what it felt like to be noble by standing on the bridge of the Royal Yacht Britannia.

Today’s guest picture is another of the Santander statuary spotted by my brother on his Spanish jaunt last month. He remarks that the figures look a little put out by the building works.

Old History
There is no current significance to this picture but I have put it here as it is two years, more or less to the day, since I started this blog and this was the first picture that appeared. I note, somewhat sadly considering my present state of health, that I cycled a hundred miles, includingContinue reading “Old History”
Hung
Today’s picture is a third from my sister Mary’s recent visit to the Thames. It shows the magnificent glass house in Kew Gardens. I was going to do a lot of things today – go for a bike ride, mow the lawn, take some nice pictures and who knows what else but in the endContinue reading “Hung”
