Raking Pit update as promised...

So here it is. Small but perfect. Refreshed and renewed. The Caistor St Edmund Raking Pit on Caistor Lane.

It has now been returned to the parish as a beautiful local amenity rather than just being left as a wasteland/dump.

A project funded by the National Lottery, taken on board by the local Parish Council, and Matt and the Norwich Fringe Project, and with support from Community Payback team.

It will be a delight to walk around the neat, new, inviting pathways in the spring and summer of 2013, when the fragrant woodland and wild flowers surround the water's edge, and the ducklings zoom around the pond after their parents.

Check out the info on the panels. Admire the tree carvings. Absorb the peace and tranquility. 



Bring a picnic, find a shady log bench to sit upon in the dappled shade, and relax...

East COAST to West Coast

Now back from San Francisco and have collected the two photos that were chosen for the busy 2012 COAST Festival "Reality Check" exhibition (see TUESDAY 10 JULY 2012 and MONDAY 8 OCTOBER 2012 for details) 

Apparently "footfall" was tremendous, but sadly there was not a single sale in the whole show, or indeed, hardly any throughout the festival overall. 

SF was extraordinary. We hit it at a busy time. What energy!

Elections :  Obama v Mitt (phew)

Hurricane Sandy on the east coast. SF Open Studios at Hunter's Point - a former US Navy shipyard. The World Series baseball (the SF Giants won!) and a BIG hallowe'en scene....
