I wish it was my own work but found this in an artwork group I belong to. Wish You Were Here album cover meets 2025 global reality.

A sad forsight in to today's reality.

The 30% of those eligible to vote in the USA that gave us Trump have done a great disservice to their country and the world. Let's hope we all survive it. Democracy has to be better than competing parties with nothing much apart between them.

Spent the weekend trying to paint clouds, not easy.

Ok, had a lovely afternoon trying to teach myself to paint. Haven't picked up a brush in over 40 years, its really chilling and a nice way to spend some time. I'm hoping practice will lead to perfect.

A walk in the woods.😄👍🎨

My first attempts at artwork since school and I'm 62. It's not perfect by a long way but the next one will be better. This was my 8th try across the weekend I've learnt a lot along the way. I'm happy enough to post it here....

Ben, there is no cult its perfectly normal for people on mass to wear bandages on their ears.

Bus stops #IsleofSkye style. Love the place so much I'm even missing the sheep.

Been home two months and actually miss the place. Can't wait to get back next year. Takes beauty to another level.

Love the idea. It doesn't mention in the article but does in the documentarty about the movement, Eric Claptons racist rant was the catalyst for RAR. A man famed for playing the blues naming his heroes and inspiration the blues men of old, Muddy Waters etc.

Does anyone else have a favourite local #tree ?

This tree is very special to me and my wife, we had a wedding ceremony under this tree. We visit two or three times a year and smile at how wonderful it was.

Our families had never been to anything like it and loved it.

The other night me and my headphones had a Dark Side Of The Moon night and it was as always brilliant. It is a perfect album. Soaring highs moving lows. It never lets me down or dissapoints. An old friend I am always pleased to hear from. 🎵🎸🎤

Watched it yesterday as Disney offered it up as a Christmas film, I'm comfortable with the idea that Disney know about these things.

Alan Rickman as always perfect for the role!

A bit of fun.

A close relative or friend of yours has been murdered. Who would you most like to be leading the investigation:

Benoit Blanc
Columbo
Hercule Poirot
Miss Marple
Sherlock Holmes
Vera
Another choice

Who would you pick?

Solidarity with those marching today to demand a #Ceasefire and to #FreeGaza.

I am dumbfounded by those who feel that to march today Armistice day is disrespectful to the occasion, rallying troops to oppose it. That is an insult to the memory of those who lived the great stand still of arms.

Honestly, what is the point of the Liberal Democrats and their leader Ed Davey?

BBC radio 4 interview this morning.

Question:

Does your party want a ceasefire?

Answer:

Yes we want a temporary ceasefire.

Question:

Isn't that the same as a temporary pause?

Answer:

No?

Cynical word play!

I could go Zeppelin, Sabbath or Floyd. But this is the best album I have heard for many a year

Tool, Lateralus....
November 7, 2023 at 4:55 PM
Then of course there are the Blue veined varieties... very popular.
November 7, 2023 at 8:21 AM
Love some of these. We are off to Skye next year so need to go to the Needle.

My first post. My profile will tell you that my wife and I love visiting gardens. 5 points if you can name the garden in the photo, which by the way is the best we have been to.
