I only write occasionally here now, as you will see. However, there is an archive of over 2,000 posts which I’ve made over the last 20+ years, which are all still accessible.

  • Do I know you?

    Last night Phil and I went to Ipswich Regent to see Mark Watson. His show is called “Do I know you?”, and it is loosely based around the idea that lots of people come up to him asking him “Do I know you?” because he’s been on various different TV programmes (Mock the Week, Never…

  • Day 92: Orchid

    Day 92: Orchid Originally uploaded by phillsacre Phil has an Orchid she was given a while ago. The flower died a couple of weeks ago but grew back in the last day or two. I decided to forego usage of the flash and use a separate light source. Quite liked this one.

  • Visitors

    We had visitors this weekend 🙂 Matthew and Ellie came up on Friday night, with Samuel (now 11 months old! – he’s walking and everything. Scary). It was great fun anyway, we had to go out to 21 but we came back to find Anne-Marie and Sarah round as well having a great old chat.…

  • Forbidding Sky

    Forbidding Sky Originally uploaded by phillsacre Lots going on in the clouds today! Quite like the desolation in this scene, even if it’s not far from civilisation (or the A12…)

  • Lots of Colleges

    Apologies for not updating here much the past few days! I’ve still been uploading photos to Flickr but haven’t got around to actually updating this blog with anything much.

  • Day 86: Leafy Grove

  • Day 82: Winter Flowering Jasmine

The colouring came out a bit weird because of the light conditions but actually I rather like this. I did enhance it slightly but it did have a very blue sort of tone in the background.…

  • Day 80: Flower Thing

    Day 80: Flower Thing Originally uploaded by phillsacre Um… yeah. Not exactly sure what these are but I think they looked pretty! Oh, and … 80 days! Achievement! Only 285 days to go… 😉

  • Day 79: Lest We Forget

    Day 79: Lest We Forget Originally uploaded by phillsacre View through the machine gun nest of a WWII pillbox. I always find remembrance day particularly moving, something about all those brave men and women who fought and died, and suffered much, in order that we might have our freedom. We owe a huge debt to…

  • It didn’t rain today.

    It didn’t rain today. Originally uploaded by phillsacre I love the sky in this picture. The first time I’ve been able to go out at lunchtime this week!
