The gardener picks armfuls of flowers from the Charleston cutting garden to display in large vases on the festival marquee speakers' platform. This large pot is glazed lapis blue.
I was there to listen to Angelica Garnett, author and artist, daughter of Vanessa Bell and painter Duncan Grant, and niece of Virginia Woolf. Angelica grew up at Charleston, the country home in Sussex of the Bloomsbury Group.
Oh, and punctuation mistakes - I was taking notes at a fast pace while listening and drawing - that's my excuse.

I made this card using the Simon Says Stamp Handwritten Floral Greetings and MFT Horizontal Stitched Strips. I used gold embossing powder and vellum for the leaves. I made this for the latest SSS flickr challenge #51
Most of today has been spent making notes. Zoom meetings, phone calls, reading student work, planning for further socially distanced course delivery and drafting sections of a paper that I should have had finished *ages* ago. I'm still one for old-fashioned pen and paper. I'm also quite OCD when it comes to pens and notebooks. For example - in this particular work notebook I have to use a fountain pen with a specific blue ink. Yeah, I know. Weird.
A 10.3-metre, single-door Leyland National of Cynon Valley District Council, seen on Friday 29th December 1978. The bus had been new earlier in the year and is seen in Aberdare. Cynon Valley was, of course, the descendant of the town's UDC operation; I believe it was eventually absorbed by Red & White. Livery was a sort of sang de boeuf, with a propensity to fade. Note donkey jacket, right, a proletarian fashion of the sixties and seventies, usually with plastic yoke, lacking in this particular example. Last year I found an identical garment in the bottom of a trunk. It was one of a CEGB-issue pair, donated my by first father-in-law. I can't remember what happened to the other. Following the reinstatement of two missing buttons, it served me well throughout last winter.
Lift a shell to your ear and your hear him
the young master recites at the shore
far from the maddening crowd he plays
his melodies in tune with the notes of the sea
until his music is submerged in the tide
Ever wanted an outfit but just never got around to getting it as there were many other outfits you wanted more? There are SO many Francie outfits I wanted that ‘Note The Coat’ always got passed over for something else, but I always really loved its simple, clean lines and that wonderful bark-like texture of the crepe fabric! I also LOVE those short 60’s double breasted coats, and the fact that its white reminds me of something that Courregés or even Valentino would have done, as in that famous all-white collection he designed in 1968. This coat of course, was released a year earlier, as Francie was always a trendsetter! I decided to go ‘all-white’ here and do a typical 60’s head-to-toe monochromatic look on my 1966 bend-leg Francie, using the stylish white cotton hat from the later ‘That Girl’ doll from 2002 and the white pleather pants from ‘Leather Limelight’. She also borrowed Tressy’s camera for the day, as I needed something black, white and graphic swinging from her arm! I may do another look without the pants and substitute some space age white Mod boots next…
As part of the hidden gardens in Vannes, this garden of pots was not hidden but beautifuly laid out in a wave.
