🌥⛈ Actually any Holiday 2021 / 22 / 23/ 24 / 25

No, but have sen many there in the past. There had been a big event in the harbour and probably too much boat activity.

We’re in Ilfracombe now. I really struggle to understand the Damien Hirst statue - Verity, representing Truth and Justice.

Half of the woman is stripped open revealing her skull, organs, muscles and the foetus in her womb.

Why?

Because it’s Damien Hirst.

Gormley is…Hurst not so.

Well, he’s got a gallery in Vauxhall but it’s near Pimlico Plumbers so people aren’t sure which is which…allegedly

I know what they mean…


I don’t like it all…but I do like a lot of his figurative work…


He’s overrated imho but the luvvies don’t like to admit it.

I like him…but of course, I’m a patron.

I worked for the Company that built Gormley’s studio in Kings Cross. He had an event when it opened and our site manager (sadly no longer with us) was invited along with a few more of our project team. Gormley was showing people around and showed off some sketches and the like. There were a bunch of small ones which looked fairly unconvincing and Gormley said two of them were sletched using his semen as the medium. Amongst the assembled throng of arty types, our Site Manager after a few glasses of champers, pipes up, “thats why its a load of old wank then!”
I think the final account negotiations were a little harder than expected.

Just getting round to doing me photos from our Norway and Iceland sojourn over the last couple of weeks.
I thought I start with this as it illustrates the “selfie age” has taught all young ladies how to pose…

No that’s Gullfoss…the one I posted is in the north of Iceland, Godafoss.

It’s Iceland innit. Looks all the same when it snows.

Ladyslowlane doesn’t like snow hence the June/July timeline.

The place in Rhodes we went in May is fucked - Kiotari

Hotels being evacuated due to wildfires - people being collected from the beach :flushed:
