Remember…what exactly?
Today we quite rightly remember the Great War, but two developments this year I find quite disturbing. Everyone on the radio this year seems to feel obliged to say something like “and of course we remember today the thousands of men and women serving now in Afghanistan and Iraq…” and this is usually supplemented by
Wedgywood is 100
The following link takes you to a film explaining and showing the ambience of the thing we popped our heads up in last night in Knightsbridge at the Shytstem’s request. It was rather like being on an early channel 4 programme. And yes, that IS a compliment in my book. We had a great time.
H-hC & HFP audience video
A kind member of the audience had posted a video of what they saw at the event in the Foundry recently.

Tomatoes, beetles & tattoos – hooray for diversity!

The little ones are Moneymakers, the yellow ones are Golden Sunrise, the stripey ones are Tigerella, the normal looking ones are Gardener’s Delight.

Half-handed cloud round-up and more!
There are two half-handed cloud posts you may be interested to open in a new tab, as it were: Sounds Familyre is the blog of the Danielson’s record label, who also host some of John’s CDs. Magnetic Magpie is in a language we can’t download. We now have reviews in Russian and Japanese we’ve never read, which is
