Bimbling down the auld Corpse Road with a view to a pint or two... Love a good walk, pubs, music, beer, art, cider, Leicester Tigers RFC, the Sooty Show. Occasionally packin’ a Vintage Camera https://corbypubsafari.blogspot.com/

I’m always amazed when these pies come out of the dishes in one piece. Seems to be so easy!

There’s nothing serious or uplifting about someone deciding the movement they thought would benefit them, and fuck everyone else, is now not worth supporting because it isn’t benefitting them. They’re still the same self-interested arseholes.

They also had a long tradition of never featuring the single you were desperate for them to feature, Bowie was my ‘kin ‘ell, not again’ moment most weeks.

Standing room only in the Beerhouse again. If they push the bar counter back a couple of feet there’d be room for another row of tables… I told them 😬

I don’t think I’ve ever liked this one, an attempt at a new wavey synth kinda sound, thoroughly unmemorable songs. The instrumental album that accompanied it is much better. Gone…

Working my way through the rarely heard Hillage albums. Live Herald is going, too much twiddly guitaring and Hurdy Gurdy Man 😖. And Not Or is proto-System 7 so quite good really. Rainbow Dome Musick and Fish Rising are keepers obvs’, the rest looking very shakey…

Remember a time when Muslims stood up and plainly stated that ISIS did not represent the teachings of Muhammad, and do not represent the Muslim faith. Well, perhaps now would be a very good time for non-fundamentalist Christians to do the same…

Seems to me there’s all kinds of things that can go wrong with film photography that are in fact right when viewed with an open mind, I’m not sure I’d put this roll quite in that category 😂

“Shield Maidens”, 12x12 inch acrylic on wood panel. Appalled by the war. These three took many layers to reveal their comforting message. May we be the “warriors” that end this. Just finished and listed on my website. www.jeanietomanek.com/new-products...

Latest film scans back, the last roll of long-expired Kodak 200. Some editing required but generally pleased with the progress, much fewer duds this time. New film for the FED incoming, running out of excuses now 😂
