Kathy's idea. She loved the Roman sketch. Michael chose the Agatha Christie, which was abitious as loads of characters, and impossibly quick hat changes - if only we'd stuck to hat (not hat, scarf, moustache, wig, glasses). I took some closeups of a dead Inspector Tiger, Chief Inspector Theresamanbehindaya, Constable Lookout. Backed by two non… Continue reading Lockdown Monty Python with the family

One of our Aircraft – Robin Holmes book
Yet again, my past returns and weaves in and out of my present, even into a future. It's Richard again, who keeps popping up unexpectedly.

Images of June days
Some images of this time the first few days of June. Forest School zooming, going well and collaboratively between Mell, Rachelle, and I. The sex lives of trees is being revealed for the first time in my life (kaliwood.wordpress.com). Walking the dogs with long shadows, on familiar paths.

Trump at Lafayette Square
Following the death of George Floyd, killed by a police officer, his knee in George Floyds neck, America arose. Peacefully, in the tradition, mainly.
