The Blue Motor Bike: 5

She certainly can.
OK.
I'll let her ride the bike.

The Blue Motor Bike: 4

But Mrs D says she knows someone who can ride that bike.

The Blue Motor Bike: 3

But it's true. My dreams are shattered.

Je suis trop grand pour ma moto bleu magnifique.
Mrs D says it just won't work. I'm just too big a thing... moi.

The Blue Motor Bike: 2

See what I mean?

I just love it.

The Blue Motor Bike

So Mrs D just couldn't resist this little darlin '.

She did find it at that Penzance emporium of desirable objects down Chapel Street - Steckfensters.
(Shop is featured in this post from "pasties & cream" blog.)

Who handmade this lovely thing I ask myself.
I can't wait to get on it.

Kneehigh's Early Chough Offer Opens

OK.
So I'm unsure how I feel about Kneehigh's new show for the Asylum being "Steptoe and Son". (See previous post on the subject - here.)

But this is to remind all you lucky people of Cornwall that Kneehigh are repeating their money-off deal on early booking for Cornish residents. Booking for this offer opened on April 1st. Check out the details on their own website by clicking through here. For those of you that don't live in Cornwall... there is a discount price offer for early booking starting May 1st.

I guess I may be tempted ... It is my beloved Kneehigh after all.

Up The Hill And Down Again

 Another beautiful day and we do go up the hill near us that we be very fond of... (Can you be fond of a hill?)... Godolphin Hill.

It's very conical... very bare.
But maybe it was more wooded once?
Cos much of West Cornwall is an altered landscape...
I also wonder about the wooded thing...because at this time of year you do see wood anemone and wood sorrel amongst the heath and granite. Not much of a tree in sight. Just some small windblown trees... holly.... hawthorn...

And being a suburban born Kentish girl, I do remember wood anemone and sorrel at the edge of small copses that I did know in my childy days.

For sure, you get to the top of Godolphin and you do see an amazing  view
... both coasts at once, bits of both bays north and south ....
St. Ives Bay and Mount's Bay.

Prinspolo

Did find this piece of Icelandic music-making via Radio 4's Saturday edition of Excess Baggage . (Edit: Ha! just heard the news that  BBC Radio 4 is axing this programme. I can always trust they will do this to me.)
The band is Prinspolo. Find out more at their site Prinspolo.com .
