Day trip to France

Weather on the continent

The walk area

Hamish Fulton Kent walking series, walk 3 in Boulogne, France.

Mel asked if I wanted to be involved in an art project that involved going to France for the day. Just up my alley, a random creative project. We left in the morning and travelled through the

Channel tunnel.

THE WALK

Division of space.......landmarks in the tarmac...

division of time..........constant steps with a rock......

sometimes cold.....suddenly three minutes,

two more to go to reach the third within the quarter of the whole...

two minutes to get to the end of the third..........

enjoy the movement of each step.........

everyday thoughts occasionally drift in and out.......

drip, drip, drip....BANG!

And I jumped!

I went to France and walked 4 metres in 1 hour.

My first London rooftop

Here it is—my first London rooftop just outside Angel Islington tube.

I was relieved to find that I could be me in London. I was worried I'd left myself behind in St P. This was after a great drawing workshop by Cubitt Artists.

View of St Pauls from Tate Modern

Museum of London archives—a Roman shoe I'm working on.

Working part-time at DPG.

N.B. Sorry there's been such a gap GT. Thanks for giving me a prod.

Farewell St Petersburg!

Some final rooftops marking the end of an era for me. Living for five months in St Petersburg was brilliant. Lucky I'm returning for an archaeological dig with the Hermitage beginning of August, makes the parting easier. Naff, but I totally fell in love with St Petersburg and I know I will have a long relationship with the city, for the rest of my life.

Intending to share my rooftops in a Russian cafe in London, my mission statement.

Rooftops and fairytales

Something in this city seems to hit the right spot in my brain. They are only small images, I reckon they'd look lovely framed, methinks in a Russian cafe in London, a little display perhaps.

And some fairytale characters Russian styley, sugar bowl, miscellaneous alcohol bottle, Mr candlewick and in the park. No substances Shelley!

Sometimes I love my camera. This is the awesome ceiling in the place where one buys train and plane tickets, beam me up Scottie or perhaps Dr No will appear.

And the window sill in the corridor.
