We went to the beautiful wet wedding of Jasper and Hannah last weekend, at ragmans lane farm in Gloucestershire... more photos on my flickr.






Tomorrow afternoon I will be speeding at 186mph across northern France towards the City of Love, many stinky cheeses, the Pompidou and the best boulangeries in the world. Hurray!
Expect about a zillion photos next week...

Children of the cold sun and the broken horizon,
O secret faces, multitudes, eyes of inscrutable grief,
great breath of millions, in unknown crowds or alone,
rooms of dreamers above the cement abyss, - and I,
who all night restive in the unsleeping rain,
awake and saw the windows covered with tears.

noon, and dark twilight, and night with argon peaks,
matchless city, terrible...and all, all
I see are innocent; not walls, nor men
brutal, remote, stunned, querulous, weak or cold
do crimes so massive, but the hideous fact
stands guilty: the usurpation of man over man.
