suddenly appear,
every time,
you are near?
Just like me,
you seem to be,
made of seeds.

Visited Debenham's store where Ann purchased a very smart hat for a wedding in September. A real Paris model. Now we are off to Beachy Head for a blow.

Some absolutely life-affirming architecture here. It's from a PROPER century too, not this privatised, willowy, cheapskate pretend one.
This was fun to do
C20's Chair, @hughpearman.bsky.social, recently met up with Thomas Heatherwick to discuss the Humanise campaign with its criticism of ‘boring’ post-war buildings.
