FPS

When I got to the last number in the usual sequence, I wasn't even half way through the album. It seemed a shame to waste that many pictures, so I added a few more.


































Then, of course, there's the Goren Groin slideshow...

Alternative Sources

I found an old APS film in a camera, finished it off, and had it developed. Surprisingly (joke) it had a lot of animal pictures on it.


This is how my old boy Shelley is looking these days.


This is how he looked when the film first went in.





And cuddling up with Mitzi.

Dandy strikes some interesting poses.











Jaspa commandeers this drawer whenever I leave it open. It contains catnip.


I also took some stills from the short movie I made in Canada in 2006.
My cousin Leah is an opera singer. I caught her on the treadmill.


Leah's mother and aunt, my cousins Linda and Joyce.


Part of Linda's house.


The old dog, Joe.


The garden and lake.


My cousin Lorna.

That profile (no. 5) just sends me to paradise.

Quite a cast

A production of Samuel Beckett's Waiting For Godot is currently touring the country, and will come to London for the summer at the Theatre Royal Haymarket. Apart from the fact that tickets are rather expensive (most of those remaining are nearly £60) I would LOVE to go and see it, as it is starring:

Ronald Pickup

Patrick Stewart

Ian McKellen


Simon Callow


No wonder it's already almost sold out!

Sound Bodies

Although I have caps of the complete episode, for some reason there are only 201 of them, so I cannot complete the selection from my random numbers. In any case, the first two were a bit uninspiring. So I went back and just clicked on any old number that appealed to me.

Even self-appointed rules are made to be broken.

The Full Moon


Anyone who teaches massed children will know that they are definitely affected by nature phenomena - rain, wind, and - the full moon.

There wa a full moon yesterday. My class (usually so well-behaved) were a bit bonkers. Two children hit others in the face. Another pair who spend life winding one another up managed to wind up staff instead.

Now today I did some teaching at my other regular place. I discovered that they'd had a memorable day, too, with an autistic boy flipping out, throwing stuff around, then vandalising some cars.

You parents out there, please tranquillise your children when there's a full moon!

A Murderer Among Us

There are some real goodies today, but still I couldn't resist a couple of bonus shots.

Well, it's so hard to confine myself to just six!
