Interesting reading this on

Posted on Mon, 26 May 2025

Interesting reading this on the day a court in Manhattan has ruled that Trumpenstein's global tariffs are unlawful. What will the tangerine man do now that he's being held to account by the institutions. Watch this space!

"..surfing pure breakers...white

horses that feed on flights of fancy,

That's a lovely way of capturing the notion of waves.

Thanks for reading it, Di. It's a move that's 8 years in the making. Tried to move to the outskirts of Bristol in 2017 but it fell through and then life happened. Happy to be here now.

I'm glad I'm not a loyal Trumpling. Just image how hard it must be.

He's wittering on about re-opening Alactraz now along with 100% tariffs on non-US made movies or summat. Barking, truly barking.

"..and I would admire this toiled beauty

standing in splendour triumphantly."

That's a great finish and a lovely homage to a place that clearly means a lot to you, Jenny.
