March 2024

This is a photograph I scanned in of my Wife's Mother - Elizabeth Craigie Baird - (b 1907 Hull - d 1995 Cardiff) - in her late teens or very early 20's as she was 22 when she was married.
The scene is of her gutting fish but we're undecided as to where it was taken. It could be in Milford Haven or in Hull.
It was in a sorry state when handed to me with several large creases, rips, and 'sellotaped' tears running through the centre / diagonally, and at both the centre top and bottom of the 'photo. Add to this the hundreds of scratches / blemishes / pieces missing etc.
I set about repairing the image and removing the 'defects' etc. and emphasising my Mother-in-Law. It's not perfect by a long way, but I'm in my Wife's 'Good Books' for attempting it ! ;-)

Sorry to see this shop close. Although they catered mainly to the messenger/fixie crowd, it was a very close place for me to get cotton bar tape in pretty much any color.
Depois de treze anos juntas e quase dois lutando contra um fibrossarcoma, hoje (09-02-2015) ela foi embora. Adeus meus olhinhos de azeitona, adeus minha gatinha-ratinha.

Hommage à ces personnes qui ont été assassinées pour leur liberté de pensée.
Je fais partie de la génération qui a été nourie au biberon de ces gens tels que Cabu Wolinski qui étaient aussi avec le professeur Choron les maîtres de Hara-Kiri et du Canard Enchainé. Toute une époque qui disparait d'un coup.

Cette citation d'A. Einstein prend tout son sens.
My friend Jake Coe died on 28.4.2014 of drug addiction. He was an incredibly talented poet and artist, father to a 2 year old son and partner to one of my best friends.
The last time I saw him, we painted this wall together. It seems only fitting to remember him by putting down my camera and painting his name on this wall.
Listen to his wise words here and don't believe those who tell you heroin is cool. We have to change our laws on drug use, making addicts criminals is insane.
I miss this man a great deal.
