Stuff to share, stuff I like, things that make me happy, things that bring joy
and lots of other things as well. It might make no sense, infact if its here, it very likely is a load of stuff & no sense

Pant Cottage, Rhiw, North Wales

far away, at northerly point of Wales, 
where you can gaze longingly over the Irish sea....
.....lies  a little cottage called PANT
... it sits at the tail end of a steep 
off road 400m long grassy and rocky track


.....beautiful Snowdon is nearby

The cottage is part of this Country House's estate, Plas yn rhiw


if you want to blow the copwebs away... go for a walk on down the path, 
across a field, down the road,
down a rocky road and muddy dunes..... and there you can find this beach




Snowdonia, North Wales


its a beautiful tranquil upside down world

Portmeirion



I first went to Portmeirion when I was about 10 and I loved it
I particularly love the 
colours, they are 
like a glorious 
bonkers english sorbet
...even without the distortion 
of my Toycamera app 
...the colour of this wall against the
turquoise twiddly bits is really tasty
it is the mad whimsy of a true British eccentric






there are layers of glorious twiddly bits 
and then extra layers of 
gorgeous twiddly bits
have been added








this lovely shade of turquoise runs throughout Portmeirion
- I think I might be painting my bedroom this exact shade
and in a bonkers eccentric place - there are some really extreme bonkers touches


.... I loved this shade of blue also
this lighthouse's dome is an unturned pig boiler
the word electric doesn't really cover it for Portmeirion 


take your hat off to a a true british eccentric, Clough Williams -Ellis
