I found some bacon in the fridge with today’s date so I thought
I know what to do,I’ll cook it and then keep it in the fridge and use it for sandwiches…. so I put it in the frying pan on a low heat and went to sit down for a new minutes… you can guess the rest…it might make one sandwich… possibly.How time flies when you are playing with a camera….
How my heart sings 
I’m glad you didn’t blame it all on men, as some ‘feminists’ do 🙂
No man I have been out with was interested in shapewear… or high heels [ on me].They didn’t know what they were ;.anything tight like shapewear makes it harder for men to get hold of one’s flesh so it’s a sort of chastity belt!Is it teasing men?
I took a closer look at the Steer painting of Walberswick and noticed the tiny waists of all the girls. A year or two ago, I did a little research into Victorian fashion and came across the following account:
“I was placed, at the age of fifteen, at a fashionable school in London, and there it was the custom for the waists of the pupils to be reduced one inch per month. When I left school at seventeen my waist measured only thirteen inches, it having been formerly twenty three inches.”.
Although the medical profession had been pointing out the dangers since early in the century, the fashion persisted until the 20th-century.:Nowadays the concern seems to be ‘Anorexia’ – what is this obsession with thin-ness?
Yes,I remember seeing some information on your blog on the model railways when you were making the figures for that .I wonder if some masochism is for Victorian historical reasons built in to being “female” in our society. i was once very thin but i didn’t feel it was a good way to look.I remember at Oxford some women asking me how I kept so thin and I didn’t realise till then how much it mattered.it was easy: a single parent. grief,strain,not being given alternative food if 1 could not eat what was given to me.. possibly thyroid over activity,walking or cycling a lot… and though the student grant was enough it was not generous.I think many of the other girls came from wealthy backgrounds.
i saw some “shapewear” in Marks.It began at size 8 which is tiny.. they don’t need it and anyway it’s probably dangerous.I read a tale of a woman on a date who bought some to wear under her dress.Halfway through the meal she went to the Ladies and got the attendant to cut the shapewear off her!It doe not say what her date thought when she got back!I feel women think we are never ok as we are.
One thing I like on WordPress, being a ‘techie’ sort of person, is that the ‘EXIF’ data remain attached to photos. That means that I can see the type of camera used, together with all the exposure details.
I was admiring your lens cap before I scrolled down the page to realise its origin – it looks like one of those ‘special edition’ features that some people pay extra to get.
I always enjoy your photos for their simple realism and the glimpses they give into ‘your’ world – nice paintings on the wall, too.
I have found the lens cap on the table outside.But this honey jar lid is deeper so I think it’s safer so the honey can have kodak on it!.I think many of us like to see into other people’s lives We used to go out on Sundays at dusk to walk down a very wealthy street and hope we could see inside.One Georgian house had tartan wall paper!It looked horrible/:) BTW I would never buy a special erns cover to make me seem well off !The opposite in fact.I am said to be “too modest” by some folk.
