July

Here is a summary of my life this past month .It was my Grandpa's Birthday recently and we celebrated in our our Romanian country house, where I have milked cows, washed dogs and bathed in a few salty lakes.

Bought a old ring from a Romanian market




Celebrated my Grandpa's Birthday




I have a new passion, fire





the sun has also made my hair much, much, much blonder



My doggy, Ollie


I had lemonade with my Grandma


Watched black and white TV, on my Mum's 70's from when she was a teenager


Had a look through my Grandma's boxes


Persuade a chase to drink coke from vintage glass bottles


Drew to my hearts content


Bought, melon's from a gyspy and his horse-pulled cart



Climb up a few trees in search of apples


and had a climb, up a hill


Spent time in a Romanian hot spring


Played Badminton, with only thing we could find. A couple of 80s rackets


Spent a few day at my friends house


Went to the mountain


Went to church


Went to a Romanian town. Too obvious?


Had a large tub of my favourite Ice cream, Cassis


Had a ton of berries


Adopted a cat


Spent time in a Romanian Salt Lake


Bye bye x

Gilbert Garcin

Born 1929, he only started his art work when he was retired. He makes all these photos on he's kitchen table. Using only Scissors, Glue, Paper, Clay and parts of Mecano. I love him at the moment and quite amazed by what he does.








Also these leather beauties:

Doc?

I recently saw the new Harry Potter. But I'm in Romania, so I saw it in Romanian. Not all the same, considering that when there was a joke about Neville's (unfortunate) surname, Longbottom, it wasn't translated. So I was the only one bursting out loud in the cinema room. At the end (trying not spoil it for anyone who hasn' seen it yet) they're a '19 years later' bit, which completely spoiled it for me. Harry Potter is cool and full of adventure and all that, and they showed him, a dad, settled in London living a normal life.



 I don't really follow Harry Potter, I just try and follow the movie whilst I'm watching it, but Clemence de Poesy, (which doesn't appear for very long in the Deathly Hallows) I am completely obsessed with.
I find her quite amazing.
Being in the middle of nowhere for a week, help me remember movies I haven't seen in a while, so I watched the trilogy of 'Back to the future' and have fallen back in love with the eighties, along with a 'younger' Michael J Fox  and with 1950s music, especially Johnny B. Goode.

Delta

The Romanian Delta is were the not-so-salty water from the Danube water meets the salty sea water of the Black sea. Pelicans are extremely rare and today I saw a massive group of them, and here are some of the photos I took.

















Hopefully I'll have a video up by tomorrow xxx
