Today we went to a local picture framing company who was celebrating 10 years of trading, of which five years had been in the premises on an industrial estate part of which is shown below. Outside I spotted a very flashy car with the logo "Greenplanet tuning.co.uk" I was intrigued by this and wondered whose car it was. I asked the chap who was helping serving drinks and he pointed to the singer...

Afternoon tea and cake – Acker Bilk’s resting place
I noticed that St Mary's church in Compton Dando was offering tea and cake of a Sunday afternoon in summer between 2 PM and 5 PM. As so often happens, the advertisement jumped out of the page at me so without knowing anything of what would happen, off we went. Compton Dando is a niche village, very friendly with a wonderful pub, and one of those whose property values reflect the fact that it is...
preparation for going away – a telling cartoon
It's not like I'm going to the other end of the world but I know I'm going to be hammered by EMF.

If music be the food of love + Useless UK Home Office + Evangelism done right

Maybe this is is attempt to deal with unrequited love, his aim being to stuff himself sick with his own passion. I'm...
Celebrate CO2 – a day full of lots of things
Neither of us slept very well last night. I reckon I was unconscious for about three hours. When we were in Cornwall a few weeks ago, neither of us had any problem sleeping through the night but here there is too much energy so we must simplify our life somewhat. It sounds so boring to an ever active Gemini but we got to do it. I wrote a great 'to do' list today most of which I've achieved....
Boredom-on-Sea…. the very classy Town of Wedmore.
Saturday is play day, especially with a clear blue sky and the promise of warm sunshine so off we go at about 10 AM to Wedmore. This town has many cultural activities during the year which is very good for such a small conurbation, somewhat shy of 4000 people. This was the annual Street Fair. The town is affluent. There is money around. You get the feeling that people don't need to prove a...
