@adollarmore @Fortnums @grub_street Thanks Anne! Much looking forward to first bound copies of Preserving, Potting & Pickling!
Gorgeous gardens open last weekend in Cranborne, Dorset: rambling roses, 10-ft delphiniums, sky-blue clematis, hedgrerows awash with Queen Anne's Lace - who needs the Chelsea Flower Show?
Boiling volancanic firepit on Maui, Hawaii, painted from the glass cockpit of a tourist helicopter abut 10 years ago - volano semi-dormant at the time. Top pic is lava-fall arching into the ocean, sending up plumes of steam.
Just settled down to @thomeagle 's brilliant reading-book on cooking: joined-up writing, thoughtful, useful: "A raw tomato...if cooked for a very long time...in a very low oven, becomes intense, jammy and savoury." Yes!! Pic is counter-crowd, Little Duck, Dalston, eating.

Bethlehem church of the Nativity, 1982. And the crypt, also 1982 - very quiet, very dark, very empty - perhaps of the stone-throwing and buring tyres on the road between Jerusalem and Bethlehem.
