Having contrived to close the car door on my jacket pocket which contained my precious Panasonic digital camera (another €300 down the swanee but at least it was a fairly dignified exit, the one before that drowned in Chinese fish oil) bloggin' has been even lighter than normal.
However at choir practice a tenor, a fan of modern art, passed me a photocopied page and asked me to translate into Italian the title, or description, I'm not quite sure what it is. Anyway, it is the catalogue page of the piece, a pen drawing, that he has bought.
The drawing consists of a dotted line that starts at the top and then sort of veers off to the left, below that is a squiggle with a black dot in the middle; to the right of where the dotted line starts there is what would appear to be the rendition of a 1950s plastic lampshade.
This is the title and/or description:
"Since the House is all wall and possibly not going to fall down, I go within to take a bath. Nanny has turned it on. Alone, I feel full of desire to copulate with the water, which is green and smooth coming out of the taps."

Blimey, he's been there that Alastair hasn't he? Sorry about the camera though, but you know you can rely on me for advice on replacements and shameless plugs.
Sorry about the camera Ron, and you just had your birthday, and Christmas is so far off...what is one to do?
Sorry not to have visited for a while - love the last few posts Ron. We have a post office just like yours -
fish oil?
I was knew a bloke once who when his brand new Hasselblad stopped working he lubricated it with cycle oil.
It's clearly been a bad week for cameras.
