of the seven deadly sins, the eighth and worst by far is emotional blackmail ... the diligent practise of this subtle and ancient art creates a constantly evolving darwinistic moral vacuum in which the brightest new manipulative ideas and stratagems flourish ... and which only you, or i, can fill !

sunday, bleary sunday !
it is my turn to do the dusting but in my mood i prefer re-arranging the titanic's deckchairs & playing with the new camera, hence the pointless bit of domestic scenery above ...

a luvverly day
left the flat at five and cycled on frozen snow that crunched and cracled all the way through the side-streets of putney & wandsworth to nine elms
near croydon around seven there was more snow and it flopped down in big wet looking flakes on a robust looking lady who was crossing the street in four-inch black stilletos
on the south coast the sun shone & i stopped between worthing & brighton to photograph the shoreham lighthouse
i love the curved "pedestal" and the tiny carved apertures that light the stair-well, the cast dolphins-heads, & the weather vane that's big enough to see a mile away, as a seafarer under sail might wish to ... if only someone would gild it !

lisbon is lovely
those little trams are cute & the 28 tram ride was the most exciting thing since the roller coaster at new york, new york on the strip in las vegas
the people are lovely & the food was great, especially that "killer" bread soup with garlic & coriander that etches your tastebuds & makes the wine taste so much sweeter
but our poor feet ached from walking miles on rough cobbles in unusually cold weather

post valentine appraisal time
we were drunk, but not terribly
she was reading aloud from the travel section ...
she wanted to tell me how cheap it is to get married in las vegas
maybe next valentine's day ...

mystery pillar at chichester
sorry about this picture, it was hand-held at some distance
i was delivering cheese in chichester, as you do, when i spotted it around the back of the signal box to the west of the station
does any one know if it has a history ?

the putney debates
i cycle past this church every morning about ten past five
is this the same one where the first real public debate in England about the rights & obligations of people in a modern society took place ?
if you won't tell me, i'll be forced to do some more research ! ... and take a better photograph !
