Final demise

Regretfully, if this page appears, then the author is more than likely horizontal, either temporarily, or permanently, and the blog will either resume at a later date, or will terminate at this date, the latter being the more distressing!

There is a very small chance, and I do mean very small, that the author has lost his memory!

Photo book

There has been a hold up in the publishing of photos on this blog due to the concentration on getting a collection of photos into a self published book form, this now having been completed.

It has been published as 'Photos John Likes' through the Blurb site. You might like to have a look at it through their site.

Photos should on the way to this site again in the near future - fingers crossed.

Mass carrots

There's quite a 'tail' about these carrots. What a terrible pun!

These were on display in a French market. Rather attractive.

Reflected stalls

It might be difficult to make it out, but with a little bit of patience you will see that the scene is of a stall in a market place, with a mirror at the rear of the stall, this reflecting stalls behind us. Quite fascinating.

Village stall

This market was in France, for those who may be interested, though those with experience of such in that country might well have deduced this already. Did I hear a whisper about healthy and safety regulations in the EEC - surely not!!!!

Bonaquil village street

Click on photo to enlarge
This photo is of a street in Bonaquil, a village in France. This particular street is extraordinarily narrow, and it has been retained like this as part of the traditional area of the village. Though I'm not sure that i would like to live in a street like this, it is difficult to argue against the thought that it has a charm about it that would be lacking if it wasn't there.
