I'm trying my hand at an art instructional video. This is a painting demonstration of a pen and wash technique painted in the style of Edward Wesson.

Hospital Radio Reading M and M show Vlog

Something a bit different and more to come. This is a video of the hospital radio show I do weekly. In England on Hospital Radio Reading is a normal thing and intended to give patients to the hospital free entertainment if they can't afford the bedside television. You can find out more about the work by visiting the Hospital Broadcasting Association website. I hope you enjoy the show...

Woodley and Earley Arts Group October Exhibition

This year is the 25th year of the Woodley and Earley Arts Group, of which I am the current Chairman.

To celebrate this the group produced a calendar for 2018 featuring images voted by the members at the June AGM.

The Calendar is going to be on sale at the Autumn exhibition 27-29 October at the Oakwood Centre, Woodley.

Whistling throw

 

Seeing through on a promise to Samuel I brought him a toy for being good. Debs was in the toilet and I was guarding the handbag and stuff. The whistling toy was just inside the shop and I gave Samuel the money to buy it himself. I could just about see the shop counter and he managed brilliantly.

On the beach the whistling toy worked great, but it was a really hot day and we kept dipping our feet in the sea to cool dow

Debs drank coke leaning against the rocks.

Little red ice cream van

 

Walking from Wisemans bay to Saundersfoot is hungry work. We stopped daily at the little Ed ice cream van and sat to watch the tide. It wa a handy half way stop to the heritage park where we were staying.

The pathway itself is the old narrow gauge railway that took coal from hertiage park to the harbour at Saundersfoot. I imagine the pathway has been made wider with the sea defence, but the two tunnels that you pass through on the way are 100 per cent original. Apart from the LEDs in the path.

Crocs on rocks

 

It was a windy day when we stopped on the south Tenby beach in front of the harbour. The tide was coming in and the jelly fish were collecting on the sand.

It turns out I'm not great with heights and when three young lads stated to climb the rock on the beach I became queezy. The fact they were wearing crocs didn't help. Who wears crocs to climb? Bear feet would propbably be better.

Fortunately they made it to the top and down again without any incident. I'm thinking of buying some crocs to see if they help my fear of heights.
