Pigeons make me crazy! 2010-12-7 A whimsical treatment of another slide from the archives. This is from Florence, so it must have been taken around 1975 or 1976. Very encouraging comments on yesterday's icy lavender - for which I thank you. Have a good Tuesday.
Whitstable Beach 2010-11-17 The last of our 'holiday snaps'. After this we got in the car, went through the Chunnel, and drove home. If my geography is correct, due left is the Thames Estuary and straight ahead is the English Channel. P.S. One of these huts is for sale with all the usual mod cons (i.e. nothing). I have a telephone number if you are interested. Many thanks for the comments on yesterday's church sculptures.
Greta 2010-11-15 The Greta is the oldest (1892) Thames Barge and the oldest little ship to have evacuated British soldiers from Dunkirk in WW II. She is now privately owned and sails in the summer from Whitstable harbour, seen here. I'm not sure if this view is showing the entrance to the Channel or the Thames Estuary (probably the latter). I was busy the last few days and didn't comment much - I'll try to do better today.
