Ironically it was today in Houston that I found out Bill Bryson has a new book scheduled for publication at the end of May. In many ways it will be a follow up to his "Notes from a small island" shown above. His new work will be eagerly anticipated in this household.
The title is fixed but as yet there is no indication of the cover or the exact date of release. What is known is that the majority of chapters are based around his usual wry observations from different locations around Brexitland during the last year. Most feature England. However, there will be at least one chapter from Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
With his gentle but incisive insights, it should be a fascinating read from a gentleman who holds dual nationality - born in America but who has spent most of his life in Britain. In the new book, he apparently looks on at the utter chaos in a country he clearly loves - but one that is falling apart at the seams.

They've never sat on my lap at the same time before. It was so cute! I leaned back in the recliner and grabbed Short Bus, then Crooky joined us a little later. I also got some shots of Crooky licking him while we were sitting there... although sadly, the cuteness was too short-lived because Short Bus jumped off.

Mr. Zoom is MADLY waving at me at the end of the long NYC block. I look back at the palm reader one last time, then hurry on. Mr. Z grabs me and points to the young man in the felt hat.
Mr. Z: Please tell her what you told me.
Man In Felt Hat: Yes, I have seen your Demi. She was here just before the sun came up.
Mr.Z (really using his head): What, exactly, did she look like?
M.I.F.H.: Gold. She was gold. AND she was with a friend, also gold. They were reading the letters on the board.
I looked closely. They were old love letters from the 1930's. I tilted my head at him.
M.I.F.H.: I think they were looking for love.
Me: How do you know it was Demi?
M.I.F.H. (looks me straight in the eye...see below) and says: She left a note.
Mr. Z was smiling and already holding the note in his hand.

1. Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.
2. The choice of tool limits the possibilities.
3. Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.
4. The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...
5. The moment of observation is the real find ...
6. Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.
7. Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.
8. The meaning of all this is the process!
9. Let it be!
