Spurn, monday 27th August 2007

all thoughts of art were over shadowed by the unfolding rescue by the lifeboats fron Spurn and Grimsby as the lifeboatmen got into trouble themselves whilst saving lives, overturned boats, fire on the yatch.
All turned out well in the end.
Always a big thankyou to those who risk their lives for us regardless of the perils ahead.

Nice start to the day, turned to rain at lunchtime.
I found this large, Convolvulus Hawk-moth on a post halfway along the point, beautiful colours.

I've finally got back to the lighthouse, the flooding in Hull and Holderness has been awful, so many people have been affected.
My lights are broken with the damp but my artwork is ok, and its drying out slowly.
The sea and river are so calm, as if nothing happened in the last couple of weeks.

SPURN WALK Saturday 23th June 2007

The thunder and lightening, the pouring rain which struck us as we reached the point made for a spectacular yet slightly scary experience. One not to be missed. We got back to the lighthouse in time for a sandwich and a dry off.
