Where I was born .Photograph / David 1917. “Non” you said. / “Non” and something like “le matin” / Grass stains on the lace of your petticoat. / Some one had said petticoat, now today. / I remembered your foot pushing towards my face through the grass. / Rubbed my cap badge clean on your petticoat, chemise? / Could we find it? Thought I’d lost it. / Field, water meadow. / Hung wet stockings over the grass. / Mistletoe, yes mistletoe in the trees, other side of that river. / Green woodpecker, red trees. / “I like birds” I said “Never seen that one”. / Wet in places. / One white stocking, like mist. Oh bloody hell. / A white line / A line creased into the flesh at the top of your leg, / Undone ribbons. / Cold collar stud, cold buttons and red marks. / Wet and sweating, you had hair in your eyes. / Wet legs, this lot think I invented it. / And wet again in the grass / Dampened the edge of your light grey skirt, dark. / All over, all disarranged. / A hat in the grass, black and shiny, painted straw, a little boater / With flowers a cheap Easter hat. / You had washed your hair and the hat stained your head, laugh. / No, non-, you said and you tied up your hair, tried to say no, in the morning, / Little solider in your very bad English. / Matin and I think you sang “Ave”, in Latin, ha. / I said, not my church, not my religion, couldn’t think of a useful God just then. / Watching the other side of the river / Could not see us. / They were honestly Gypsies, caravans and all / And a fire and later songs, bloody hell and black bread and potatoes, red songs and cheeks and nights and days, oh God. It was a long time before I could afford you. Saved up, bloody stupid they said I was. Did nobody like you? The officers, yes. / No sillier than the rest of them I suppose.

The Corn Market The architecture of Wimborne is regarded as one of the foremost collections of 15th, 16th and 17th century buildings in Dorset. Local planning has restricted the construction of new buildings in areas such as the Corn Market and the High Street, which has preserved almost all of the original buildings. The most interesting examples of English architecture include the centuries-old Wimborne Minster, the Town Hall, the Priest’s House Museum and dozens of original 16th, 17th and 18th century fronted shops and pubs. The town is also home to the Tivoli Theatre, a 1930’s art deco cinema and theatre. Date: 28th June 2008
Featured in the Adelaide/South Australia group this old pub in Hammond a little near ghost town in South Australia had certainly seen better days.
Getting a bit homesick so here’s a few shots of home. The White Horse Inn in Beverley. First mentioned in 1666 as a coaching inn, the coach entrance can be seen on the left. From 1927 till 1976 the pub was owned by the Collinson family, Miss Nellie was the licencee and the pub became affecionately known as Nellies. More people know it as Nellies now than the White Horse. It is one of the few pubs in the world with its original gas lighting and on cold winter days open coal fires burn in each of its many small flagstoned rooms, so well known it even has its own website.
The Bar you see on the right (Carriers Quarters) is one of the oldest unaltered Bars in Leith,I had the pleasure of working there for a wee whiley….........It’’s a small bar but with a room at the back they named The Carriers Cove ,still in its original state, of stone walls and roaring coal fire,it was so cosy in the winter.It lies within the heart of Leith and just down the road following the light is the Shore with four Bridges and quite a few other Bars and Restaurants,then heading out along the same road it will take you along the coast line towards the Forth Rail Bridge and Forth Road Bridge….......Leith Links is not far from the Bar and not far from where I stay,and is said to have been the place where the first game of Golf was played…....I feel quite Lucky sometimes when I look around me and where I live,Edinburgh is a spectacular City,to look out your window and be looking at a Volcano is amazing but then add a Castle on top of the Volcano ,the Image becomes Magical…................................ / AS IS…....... /

A pub crawl through Ireland
The Alice Lisle Situated about a mile from the busy A338 Ringwood to Salisbury Road, the Alice Lisle is a delightful New Forest Inn, which does excellent food and has a good choice of beers & wines. An unusual feature is the small entrance gate, which allows the customers in but keeps the New Forest ponies out! Lady Alice Lisle (1617-1685), also known as Dame Alicia Lisle or Dame Alice Lyle was a local English gentlewoman, who was executed for harbouring fugitives from the Battle of Sedgemoor at her home at Moyles Court, near Ringwood, Hampshire. Her trial was presided over by the infamous Judge Jeffreys at the so-called ‘Bloody Assizes’ in Winchester. She was found guilty of treason and sentenced to be burned, but her sentence was later commuted to one or mere execution! Alice is buried in a tomb in the church of St Mary’s, Ellingham, and a plaque marks the place of her execution close to the cathedral in Winchester. Date: 15th February 2009
There’s a pretty hefty fence and barbed wire all around what would appear to be the entrance… tough crowd. New Westminister, BC

The Sentinel lorry was a very well engineered vehicle with an unconventional horizontal engine mounted in an underslung position behind the cab produced in four-wheeled and six-wheeler form and when introduced was ahead of its time with a stylish all-steel sliding door cab. These lorries were very popular with breweries because with no engine intrusion in the cab three men could be accommadated but this example was employed in the delivery of cooking stoves and heaters made by Flavel of Leamington Spa and is seen here passing through a typical English landscape in pre-motorway days. The original painting in oils on canvas board 20”x30”is for sale at £1000. E-mail mike@transportartist.co.uk or phone 01202 392277. In a nine year production run only 650 DV44s were produced so the Sentinel was a rare sight indeed, but undoubtedly a pleasurably one with arguably one of the best looking cabs ever to grace the humble lorry.

I apologise for Sally draging me along to all these Pubs, it’s a situation I have no control over! / The 17th Century building has been a hotel and public house for many years. The name hints at its local history, the ceiling beams in the bars containing ships spars from some of the ships that have been wrecked in Trevaunance cove, the local beach. / / /
