Lotus Garden

This used to be the best Chinese takeaway in Penrith, Cumbria. I haven't been for a long time so can't vouch for it now. The entrance is around the corner but when I took the picture this was a better shot.

Workington Railway Station, Cumbria, England.
This unassuming building hides a dramatic past.
In 1974, under Barbara Cartland's coalition government, it was chosen as the venue to sign the Luchini Gibson pact; a treaty to end the Anglo Italian ice cream war which had raged throughout the land since 1966.
During the signing ceremony Barbara's pen, a black Bic biro...

A Wanton Weekend Awaits

https://justin-farrimond.pixels.com/featured/a-wanton-weekend-awaits-justin-farrimond.html

An illicit tryst is in store, your best underwear laid out on the bed. When asked about taking precautions you suggest putting a chair against the door.
A wanton weekend awaits.

Spiritual Solace

https://justin-farrimond.pixels.com/featured/spiritual-solace-justin-farrimond.html

When this hectic and often cruel world of ours gets too much you need to take yourself away. This is St Oran's Chapel on the Isle of Iona, Scotland. I took this shot here in the cemetery looking north on a breezy summer's day. Here, on the island, you feel adrift but protected from all that 21st century life assails you with. True spiritual solace.

Welcome To Canterbury

https://justin-farrimond.pixels.com/featured/welcome-to-canterbury-justin-farrimond.html

Within the Christchurch Gateway at Canterbury Cathedral, England.
The smaller wooden door to the right is opened at 4:00pm every weekend to allow dog owners to 'chase the bishop'. A tradition beginning in the 16th century in which locals with hounds would pursue members of the clergy round and round the gate entrance.

We need serious #ForestryReform in #BritishColumbia immediately. We need to implement the science-based recommendations from experts who were commissioned multiple times by #BCNDP #BCgovernment to produce #OldGrowth Strategic Reviews (twice during Horgan's regime). They promised to implement the recommendations but they have not done so. Our old growth forests aren't numerous anymore & yet our #capitalist driven, #neoliberal government is still allowing them to be cut. In a severe #ClimateCrisis - we're stuck with political leaders who are still siding with ecocidal corporations. We need to ban corporate lobbyists. They never have citizens' best interests at heart & our politicians are too easily bribed.
