The Griffin.

Every time i hear Nick i think Peter.

It's won't go away.

Of course, there is only one Griffin.

San Frantastic.

San Francisco, we salute you!!

Amazing intuitive.

Burning Man.

Pretty nice little clip of Burning Man.

Time Lapse glow sticks.

More here.

Canyoning.

So, i went to Switzerland.

Whilst in Switzerland i went Canyoning.

With that in mind, if you are ever in Switzerland, get in touch with this lot and go, if you don't you are stupid and silly and should probably have some form of regret.

The Jackson.

I have been awfully saddened by Jacko leaving us all so suddenly, so unannounced.

He was a legend.

He pushed pop.

He pushed dancing.

He pushed the music video.

And of course, some would say he even pushed himself onto little ones, but hey...who knows.

Anyway, i just saw this, his games room.

Sad you have left us Michael, your music will keep entertaining us for a double long time.

And to think, without Mike we wouldn't have had the hee hee.

Cha'moan MJ, cha'moan.

Only in America??

Switzerland of milk and honey,

I went to Switzerland.

Switzerland is good.

Go to Switzerland.

That's it.

The Garden of England.

I went to Kent's delightful Sissinghurst at the weekend, it was a staggeringly beautiful piece of The Garden of England.

Or so i thought.

I have always called Kent 'The Garden of England' because that is what i thought God named it when he made it.

Apparently, Kent is not The Garden of England anymore, as it is now considered to be North Yorkshire.

I am sorry, but can they really change it willy nilly? Is that right?

It isn't like when Exeter got voted 'City in bloom 2007', and then Norwich took it in 2008.

Surely The Garden of England is one place, Kent, and should always remain one place, that being Kent!

I have been slightly perturbed by the entire thing.

Sorry.

A man's home is his castle.

I love castles, churches and cathedrals, simply can't get enough of them!

So you can well imagine how excited i was at finding this list of most immaculate castles from around the world.

Now, take that excitement and double it as i just found this, which is residing here.

Architecture and art together as one, I'm a having some troubdsfdfle typiungnging.

Thanks history, thanks Lucky Spot.

Drumlin.

Mother Hale and i spent the weekend in Northern Ireland.

It was a truly wonderful thing.

Originally it was a road trip to ride the spectacular Antrim Coast Road which runs along the east coast of Ireland ending up at The Giants Causeway.

But, we landed back in England having experienced more than just the Antrim Coast Road.

For we both learned a new word.

Drumlin.

A drumlin is a rather small hill which looks a bit like a whale out of water.

They are simply fabulous.

I am now going to go out of way to see more drumlins across the globe.

I might become a Drumlin Spotter, i'll let you know if i do, you might want to join in.

Anyway, Drumlin, an elongated whale-shaped hill formed by glacial action.

Keep your eyes open, you might be closer to one than you think.
