Bad fog of loneliness - We've had a lot of fog over the last few days, mainly overnight and in the morning, but today it hung around all day. On Joss Bay this afternoon you could hardly tell where the sea ends and the sky begins.

You know I miss warm cookin' mama, that you lay down - If you see a cookbook that looks like this, then you know it works. A good cookbook should be dog eared and stained, it should fall open at your favourite recipes.

An old streetlight was painting mystical circles - We popped into Sandwich late this afternoon for a hot chocolate and a slice of cake. Then spent an hour walking around the back streets and alleyways of the town as the sun disappeared.

You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me - Sometime a joker turns up and helps!
