auntie Jess

three of the most important women in my life, my mum, amafrodolily and auntie Jess, who I must say shouts a lot less than the Boss, but sleeps a lot more.

Venterdon

my village, how sweetly it doth lie.

christmas morning

sun rising through the trees, waking the church spire with golden beams, rebirth, hope, beauty.

boxing day 2005

well, that was fun. I'm all done in, and looking forward to next Christmas tomorrow. All of us wish all of you peace and goodwill, friendship and love on this most beautiful and fertile of worlds.

Happy Christmas everyone
