Shoreham in West Sussex is one of those funny places that have two hyphens in their name. To distinguish it from other Shorehams, Shoreham in West Sussex is the one by the sea. There’s a Shoreham in Kent, in the Sevenoaks District (I’ve always loved the name Sevenoaks, I don’t know exactly why). So thatContinue reading “Visit to Shoreham-by-Sea”

Visit to Seaford
Last Saturday I took a day trip out to Seaford, a small-ish town to the east of Brighton. It takes half an hour on the train to get there. The weather that day was: cloudless blue sky, just very warm, seriously, not a cloud in sight. I was very warm the whole time and, havingContinue reading “Visit to Seaford”
end of september update
The last day of September deserves an update! I’m in Brighton, it’s 9.30am and when I woke up this morning I turned my head to the right and looked out the window and saw hills and trees and green grass and a cloudy sky. I see this first thing in the morning every day, onlyContinue reading “end of september update”
Rememberx2 the first of September
The first of September has always marked new beginnings within my field of signifiers and signified. The oldest September first I was taught about is the start of World War 2. The most significant September first to me is definitely the one seven years ago, when I boarded a plane from Gdansk to Leeds thatContinue reading “Rememberx2 the first of September”
Endajune Update
There are things I find hard to believe and things that I can believe very easily. For example, it’s very easy for me to believe we exist among ghosts and other beyond-natural creatures. But I struggle to believe that it’s almost the end of June already and that it’s 30 Celsius degrees outside and weContinue reading “Endajune Update”
The coolest place in Warsaw
What you’re about to see is way beyond coolness. It’s a PRL design aficionado’s paradise and just the perfect spot if you want to grab an iced coffee and chill in the shade for a bit. In front of you there’s parked cars and a road, but beyond that there’s the very big Park SkaryszewskiContinue reading “The coolest place in Warsaw”
Greetings from Warsaw; (not) the greatest tragedy
Pardon me for not providing any pictures, but I have a very good excuse. My phone got soaked on Sunday afternoon (maybe it was tired of the sun, everyone wants a cold water dip on a hot summer day) and since 10pm on that day it’s been non-functioning. I took about 4 photos during myContinue reading “Greetings from Warsaw; (not) the greatest tragedy”
Remembering my last week pre-pandemic
It’s been almost a year since all normal activities stopped in Edinburgh because of covid… and I sort of remember the first days when I started cutting out my outings, although I still went out relatively frequently – I went to Tesco once a day to get some fresh vegetables (I remember I was intoContinue reading “Remembering my last week pre-pandemic”
zimno, zimniej, zimnooooo – a quiet day on Philadelphia Boulevard
It was cold, cold, cooooOOOOOold.
Thoughts of week 2
Last week’s key thoughts were on amber and underwater photography. Also, islands.
2020: Summation/Share Your World
So I’ve lately been enjoying blogging for the sake of blogging, and it reminded me of the old good times when I started blogging as – I think – a 9-year-old. The sense of the blogging community was strong to me back in 2007, and I’ve recently felt it again. So in this post I’mContinue reading “2020: Summation/Share Your World”
