Here are the cut out metal signs I'd like to put forward for Holton Pits road entrance, to be situated on the southwold road. The cut out metal references our industrial past. John knows someone who makes these kind of signs. I first saw one when travelling in Eastern Europe - one of the images… Continue reading Signs potential
From Christopher Titmus
May you remember your entrance into this new year to dissolve shadows lurking in the wasteland of last year, with eras to forget. May you remember the new year takes you further, further beyond the old where you gasped for air in punctured days. Pathway five minutes walk from home. Totnes, Devon, England May you… Continue reading From Christopher Titmus
Blyth 4 – Walpole
I had no idea of this plan until I rose, late, then in the space found this an obvious choice. Walpole Blyth. On known and unknown paths and past known and unknown peoples homes. Started in the Quiet Lane, passed a house I would have once yearned to live in - now far too much… Continue reading Blyth 4 – Walpole
Blyth 3 – Heveningham to near Laxfield
Ended in the Huntingfield Arms, too late for lunch, and with dangling glasses, broken when lifting Kali over a stile. Set off from Heaveningham, parking at the start of Barrels hill (which was not a hill). Dallied by the church, now a private dwelling, as a polite sign describes, since 1981, with graves neatly lined… Continue reading Blyth 3 – Heveningham to near Laxfield
Sal
Hi Rachel! I was stoked to receive your long newsy letter what an amazing person you are who is touching a lot of hearts and not only helping people but also the planet with all your tree planting - my real proper eco warrior oldest friend. I did look for you in the movie you… Continue reading Sal
Walking with friends – Christmas 2023 – Blyth 1 & 2
I am staying put, not moving. It is too challenging with Kali, needing night time pees, and he needs a known and certain landscape to walk in. Although I will miss the warm welcome and cosy family gathering and cooking at Maidens, I am also content not to move, and in that space it has… Continue reading Walking with friends – Christmas 2023 – Blyth 1 & 2
Solstice 2023
For the first time in a long time, I did not venture to the Locks to witness the Old Glory coming across the marshes, their torches on fire. It was a different day. Rupert and I rose when it was still dark and set off with lights on for Southwold. There we gathered with Mell… Continue reading Solstice 2023
Barbara
As I turned 66, at Tinks, she found some old photographs. Some of Barbara, younger than my age now, some of me aged 15 in Alpbach. Walking with Alou, and sunning outside How mill with Zandy

Stephen at 93, greeted me. "Welcome, and good to see you. You are someone I definitely know, not only the name". The theme was various degrees of memory. Fading and remembering. We reminisced back to the old school days, recalling names, the moment Jenifer and Owles broke out of the cockloft onto the roof. Provoked… Continue reading Community
Robert Booth
December 9th, Robert calls me, and reminds me it is my birthday. He does this every year. I imagine he has a calendar of birthdays, with people he has met throughout his life. It is a pleasure to hear from him, to be taken back to then. I hear that voice. Once a continuity announcer… Continue reading Robert Booth
