Here's a sweet kitsch cover of Andy Williams' "Music to watch the girls go by" - hope you all like it!

Les pieds dans le ruisseau, moi je regarde couler la vie

Here are some assorted snaps from the last couple of weeks: hearty breakfasts, plenty of sunshine, some good reads and the loud shirts are out of hibernation. Hope you've all enjoyed the recent sunny spell too!

Une kermesse pleine de charme

Kate and I spent a lovely day at the wonderful summer fair at St. Werburghs city farm.

J'aimerais tant retrouver les parfums oubliés des bonheurs ordinaires

Je lisais un beau livre d'images quand une ombre est sorti d'une page

L'aventure c'est le trésor que l'on découvre à chaque matin

Various snaps from my daily strolls around Bristol.

Nino Ferrer - Mirza

Each year, as the British summer approaches we begin to swap our large umbrellas for those mini ones that you can take anywhere; there is widespread confusion between chamomile tea and calamine lotion; male shoppers in the Bedminster Wilkinsons stop wearing t-shirts and the collective calloused foot of the British populace is released from its shoe-based captivity into the pedestrial freedom of the flip-flop. As an ode to all shoes-that-have-proper-foot-retention, I present herewith this delicious slice of French groove which features a most excellent foot-stomping organ solo, guaranteed to elicit vigorous foot-tapping capable of displacing an unsecured beach flip-flop along a trajectory of up to three metres.
