Finally got around to hanging some of Harry Brockway’s woodcuts, up the stairs to Agnieszka’s studio in Gorzów Wlkp. They are from his Mulcheney Pottery commission and I bought the first print from the Bankside Gallery in 2017, the last 3 I got from Harry in November 2023. I first came across Harry’s work from a book he illustrated, Jean Giono’s “The Man Who Planted Trees” (recommended).
So sorry to hear of his passing to cancer recently - we never met, but I will think of him when climbing and descending these steps.

Saw the excellent AMC Trio with John Daversa at Jazz Club Pod Filarami in Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland on Friday night. Bought some vinyl, catch them if you can!!

Fab visit to Museo Archeologico Regionale Paolo Orsi in Syracusa this afternoon, and well needed shelter from the midday heat. Admirable flooring too 👍👍

A year on from building the path and getting rid of the grass on the front garden. Happy with the result and wondering why I didn’t do it years ago! Bricks were recycled from local skips, hardcore rubble was dug up from this garden (original building waste from the house construction in the early 70s). Soil was sieved and combined with local horse shit and composted kitchen waste from our own house. No need for a gym membership when you have a home project like this!

A Rose Chafer beetle flew into our garden and landed on the ballerina, such a beauty.
