naked lights
jane took this photo out the car window. it’s the gubbins in traffic lights (before they stuck the head on them)
parable of the lost coin
last sunday esther lost £1. we spent ages looking for it. eventually we found it. it was in the turnup on her skirt at the back. very much like looking for spectacles which are balanced on your head all along. sort of.
back from holiday
we’ve been on holiday for the last week so there’s been no real time updates since last saturday to the blog. best i’ve had is minimal text access to email.
anyway, i’ve got tonnes of pictures (i took about 500 photos and have saved about 350). so expect a few days worth of mega-blogging before it’s back to business as usual.
here is where we stayed near Thomas Hardy’s birthplace near Dorchester. The place was built by his dad and was very good !
benjamin’s electronic eye
here is a small chap called benjamin. he has an electronic eye. or so he told us.
hat
there was a glove nearby, but i didn’t see it (it was reported to me later). but i did see this hat on a bench.
unhelpful post box
more tape fun.
more danger
most of london is now covered in danger tape. including this electricity cabinet with no front door.
red tape
there’s definately too much red tape these days. and yellow.
lego Bible
this site has been going a while but i love going back to it to the latest Bible stories which have been built in lego.
last ram
a ram in the street.
glove
a nicely presented glove
snakes and ladders
as a blueprint for life, i don’t like snakes and ladders. for some in becomes a complete allegory for the rest of their lives:
wheels
this picture was esther’s idea. she said “look at all the wheels”. so we did.
worn out flag
this flag is all worn out. that’s probably symbolic.
emergency stop
this sign informs us that if you push your trolley past this point then the trolley will stop suddenly.
perhaps the reason it would stop suddenly is that you will have driven it in to this brick wall ?
cards at tate modern
someone (yrret?) had written their name on the floor in the tate modern in Iraqi war villain playing cards which was nice. it worked quite well in reflection from the mirror ceiling.
