Flowers and filth. Winds and rains is cold. Sun is warm. A dry leaf in winter. Where are my shoes?
Really? I had hoped for something far worse/better.

We hear you Sire. Supermac is still scoring. Lindisfarne not so good.

It’s almost as though your paint is alive. I see things. Almost whole stories. I look again and everything has moved on.
I find myself thinking of Ray Bradbury but that’s probably my obsession.

Wind’s up.🌬️ And there be holes about the fabric of the house. Strange whistlings can be heard here.

Hell of a time to be a serious chronicler of events with insight. Trump degrades us all.

Yes. New patterns seem to form only to be countered by aberration. Extremity becomes the norm with moments of misplaced conformity.
There is still a joy in rainbows. Especially in times of long shadows.

Bummer…

I like a single strong coffee. If you’re ever feeling flash with the cash get some “Velluto Nero” from these people. It’s not that expensive. I am gifted this from someone I work for. Long story about trust and looking out for each other. Sometimes we should have nice things. Not expected. Just care

Do you have a Fray Bentos story?

Almost a Barry Smyth moment.
Toff: “I’d like you to cut down these trees Barry. Do what you want with the wood.”
One year later.
Toff: “Do you know where I can buy some wood for the fire Barry?”
Barry: “Yes.”
I miss Barry. He had a rare wisdom.

It was damn cold. February. Two weeks in to a 5 month stay in Colo. Fresh from UK. My aunt’s grandmother died. Settler family. An open casket funeral. I know history is dark. But that day I met some people beyond those today. Welcoming and generous and a sense of fate and joy. It has stayed with me.

The dark season of The Shed. Soon it will be spring.

Me and the band in Weskan, Kansas. 1982.

Ahh.. Colorado in 1982. Up in the Foothills. Alone for weeks. With a circular saw. And my O level metalwork skills restoring running water. Adopting a cat. And watching Hummingbirds. The sadness at the death of James Honeyman-Scott. And the love of people amid some strange types. Wyoming was weird.
