bluebell line ... advertising that failed

 

bluebell line ... nice lettering

bluebell line ... i remember being sent with a book of vouchers to queue for dried milk at the church hall

 

patient lions on the bluebell line

the bluebell line ... i imagine that each of these levers and linkages will have an interesting name

bluebell line ... the train now leaving platform three

 

evergreens on the bluebell line

 

a very old traffic sign

 

the bluebell line ... raising the temperature for the climb out of horsted keynes

 

night turns to day about two hours into the shift

 

white doves at four wents near goudhurst

 

biddenden church ... bellringers' remembrance

 

biddenden church ... three surviving roundels depicting march, april and september

 

biddenden church ... john mayne and family

 

hilary ... conveying the butler's secret with enviable poise and delicacy

 

vic & glen, a couple of film stars moonlighting in the cheese industry

first wood shot of the morning

the new log pile outside shoreham power station

 

second wood shot

sawn timbers newly arrived at shoreham harbour ... i can't believe the quantity shipped through this small port in recent years represents the output of a sustainable logging industry

 

third wood shot

veneer stacked in a furniture factory at lewes

 

pasolini at gramsci's tomb

i don't know who was holding the camera




reading bulgakov's master and margarita, and then watching pasolini's gospel according to matthew, fills your head with sparks

our street sweeping lady might just as well try to paint the forth bridge

 

towcester race course ... modern, comfortable, well-organized, and where, for reasons which are mysterious, admission is free

 

towcester race course where lashings of rain cannot deter the punters
