The Man Who Abseils by Cliff Edge

Okay, so that was a sad joke. Almost as bad as the Gardening Guide by Doug Spade; or Running To Town by Miss D Buss; How To Tie Shoelaces by Ben Dover; Entering the Madhouse by Lou Nattikk; Telling The Time by Hans Tern. I’ll stop now.

Over the last few days, the workers have been attaching wire to the cliffs to, I assume, stop any more landslides. Just around the corner some of the cliffs gave way and crumpled. If they were to do that here, it would crush the houses. I would love to do something like this.

Just recently, some workmen have been into the derelict building area and have been ripping up the weeds and bushes. The result is that some of the 12th century buildings have been out in plain sight now, and the building work is glorious.

A Few Random Moments From Today

I went for a stroll along the seafront today and took a few shots.

The rocks are where they are bolstering the sea defences after the horrendous flooding that we suffered.

I loved the seagull sticking its head under the water, and managed to catch another one coming into land.

A couple of the statues, and couldn’t resist the one with the perch.

Why do seagulls fly around a ferry like thunder flies around the bottom of the garden?

The constellation Orion complete with the nebula in Orion’s sword.

The Oast House is generally associated with the south-east of England and are (or were) used as kilns for drying hops to use in the brewing of beer. There are some in several other places in this country and other countries like Australia, Belgium and Czech Republic. This particular one is in Faversham in Kent. Oasts have the tell-tale white top (kell) which pivots in the wind to allow the wind draw the hot air through the hops and out through the tops. Kent Oasts have the Invicta prancing horse – the symbol of Kent.
