One Man's Notes

Rush hour, London

So, I finally did something I'd been longing to do since we rented the flat in Shoreham-by-Sea. I donned my warm jacket and walking boots, I grabbed my tripod, cable release and camera, and headed for the beach near sunset. And I took photos:

I suspect only a handful will survive my first pass cull - but I'm pleased with that handful.

It's wonderful having such beauty on my doorstep.

On the beach

This is rather good, and I have no memory of taking it:

City Poly? Before the removal of the University/Polytechnic divide, then.

And a band on a truck - all demos should have a band on a truck…

I'm busy scanning and editing some photos I took on a student demo back in 1989, inspired by this weeks' events. I remember this photo vividly:

I am, however, slightly shocked at how dated it looks. Students look rather different these days…

I'm aiming to have the full set up on One Man & His Blog at some point tomorrow.

Update: Now up.

It has, to put it mildly, been a little busy of late. I've been rushing around the country for various events, I've been helping family members move. I have, in short, been having a hectic time of it.

Time for some time out. I am off work next week, with no major plans other that visiting my brother, some belated birthday drinkies, and a party on Saturday. And, this weekend, I'm back in Shoreham. And it's my favourite weekend: the farmers market.

Have a little video:

I managed to spread my purchases a little wider than the beer and sausages that dominated last month's purchases. :)

I expect you might see some more photography and video that's been lying around my hard drive over the week to come…

Au revoir, Exeter

Today has been something of a stroll down memory lane. I'm in Exeter for a conference (which I'm busy blogging), but it's taken me to places from one of the most important few days of my life. For example, the hotel where this morning's immersive session was held:

That'll be the hotel that Lorna and I were staying in the weekend we got engaged. And the restaurant for the lunch session?

Yes, it's where we ate the evening of the day I proposed.

The Cathedral I proposed in front of? 

Under renovation. There's probably a metaphor there somewhere… :-)
