Fields, Birds, Wind

I do this little walk, it takes you up the Great Lines in Chatham, across the big field and in to Gillingham. The reason - good charity shopping. And the view. You can, you know, breathe up there, on the lines. x
See what I found this morning.

Swedish summer

is absolutely amazing. A zillion lakes, deep and dark and sweet. Miles after miles with tight forests, filled with trolls and älvor, moose, bear and wolf. Big giants turned into mountains.
Fields to hide in and boats to row. And the light. THE light.

I have to go there soon. I miss it.

But England's pretty good too today. Sunshine and friends.

Two dusty pics

scanned of a dusty contact sheet. Been in the darkroom today. Good stuff. x

Brekkie

Toasted german rye bread with cheese, rocket sallad, cucumber and cherry tomatoes. Plain yogurt with muesli, and a black coffee. There you go, a typical breakfast at mine.

Have a smashing day! x

Birdie nam nam

I made a bird hat for miss Tukru, she made me a fantastic electric blue lace knitted beret! 

Check her out wearing her purple fascinator hat with black hat netting and a bright orange birdie attached to it. 

She also blogged about Three Little Birds here. Thank you Tukru. 

Sorry for the poor image quality, mobile phone pic. Should really put up some decent pics of my work..

Living it large

Our bedroom is like a koja

Windy saturday

Me and my bike. Will ride as fast as I can, to make my hair messy in the wind. Will buy some film for my old camera. Walk up the hill. Make paperbirds with Jane, maybe put a flower in my hair. Then drive on the big roads, find the little roads, find my friends new house and warm it up with the people I haven't seen for so long. It's gonna be good.

Being tired

So many things spinning in my head. Making 'characters' and 'nature of the call' situations for a role play for tomorrow. Working in a school - bringing creative thinking into teaching kind of thing. Also made a new fascinator hat today. Purple with black netting and a bird on! Crazy but cute. Swapsie for a knitted beret, yay!

Got an exhibition this summer! More to follow on that later... 

Love and Peace kids.
