My photo shows a Roman fresco of a brown rabbit with long ears, curled on the ground, with a rounded, soft-looking body. Its head is lowered as if nibbling at three figs placed in front of it. The figs are small and round with short stems, painted in dark reddish and bluish tones. From Pompeii. Now on display at the National Archaeological Museum in Naples.

Here’s a charming Roman fresco of a little rabbit eating figs 🐰❀️

From Pompeii, 45-79 AD.

I am alone in the house and playing COMPACT DISCS. They sound OK but are a bit fiddly, and the track lists and sleeve notes are too small to read. I am not sure they will catch on.

After #chippytea watched β€˜Paul McCartney: Man On The Run’ 🎬: snappy, honest and heartfelt, with more than a little of the Julian Temple way of cinematic music docs about it. Big weepy #Macca thumbs up to all involved πŸ‘πŸ»

Unfortunately the movie is 5 months behind schedule and 30% over budget and the custom-made camera lenses still haven't arrived from Sweden...

Oof, yes, walking into a old-fashioned bakery, early morning, but not being able to smell the bread - this is the longing of Wim’s angels

If you were like those angels in the Wim Wenders film, you know, looking down at things but unable to taste, smell, touch - what do you think (aside from scent & touch of loved ones) you’d long for most?
