Wishing you a Happy Christmas. Hope you have a fun time, whatever you’re doing. We’ve had some great sunsets recently, so thought I’d share this one. Taken from the top of Fore Street in Exeter Town centre. Keep well and I’ll be back in 2024!
I managed to get to see See Monster art installation at Weston-super-Mare last week. It was great, a creative use of an old oil rig. Just very sad that it couldn’t last and is now being recycled, melted down. So for those that didn’t get to see it, here’s some photos It was a grey …
