My Water source


After tweeting with a couple of friends on Twitter I felt that it would be a good idea to show where I get my drinking water from. Just twelve minutes walking round-trip brings the loveliest water I have tasted and even the people who test the water to check for impurities say that it is good.

Top - the view looking upstream from the wooden footbridge at the end of the footpath leading to my home.

Second - view looking downstream from the road bridge above the water supply.

Third - looking across the river.

Bottom - the lovely water, tastes great as is or stored in the refrigerator and served chilled. This latter option is the one we choose

A few pictures from today's walk


I was invited to go on a walk because it was a beautiful day - mostly blue sky and a warm sun but there was a fairly strong breeze - and I felt that a bit of exercise would be good.

On the road to the cliffs there was an unexpected perfume, I could smell Sweet Violets - looking around the hedge I saw...

A bit further along the path I looked over toward the sea and was rewarded with this view.

One of the engine houses overlooking Porth Ledden - I have never photographed it from this direction before, it makes a fairly dramatic image, especially if in mist.

Just a few of the images from the walk - hoping to put more pictures in Explorer soon.

Photographs - Rain on the window


Just testing the photograph options here with a couple of shots I took while it was raining...I had intended to go out but was glad I didn't.

I think these work rather well and I will be showing more before too long.

Now up-to-date with this blog


This is just a short posting to mark the point when new information and events in my spiritual life are about to be up-loaded, this blog has been a little while in formation but I hope that it will be updated more regularly and frequently than the Dancer blog.

The postings should be more varied and contain quite a few things and events that Dancer really did not cover - even though it should have done.





Come into my world...

New musings

21 Jun 09

It has been rather too long since I added something here, I realise that it is mostly because I grew a little tired of my own recent rants. The direction this blog took me, was not the one that I had intended to travel, I may have to start again with another blog.

This general idea was what triggered the Dolphin Muse poetry [and other things] blog into creation, I am pleased with the way that is going and so, am spending more time there, rather than here. I had intended that this blog was to be more spiritual but making note of things that affected me in health and other ways was important too.

This is why I am considering splitting this blog into two parts; one to continue the health, society and conspiracy themes - the second [really the third blog] will be the one to explore more spiritual and personal areas of my life. I have yet to make up my mind about this and have placed it into active consideration. In addition I have to admit that I am not certain how to change this so that it will show as two distinct blogs, I may have to use 'cut-and-paste' to extract the posts I want to move.

There probably is a purpose and a place for a 'rant' blog but I fully intended that this one was going to be spiritual and special interest, like the information about the "Face on Mars near the beginning of this blog and my 11th Re-Birthday post for instance.

This is rather a ramble as opposed to a rant for a change and if anyone can offer advice or suggestions as to how I can make the changes I am looking for, please add something to the comments section below this post.

Thank you for reading this and for your comments too.

More water issues - Part two

13 Jan 09

As promised, an update on the latest crisis; the plumbers did arrive - twenty-four hours later than originally promised. This was excusable, they had an emergency call requiring work to go on for much longer than anticipated. The arrival today was a bit later than expected but the work went well and we now have hot water on tap. I don't know what the plumber did but he also sorted out the booster immersion element as well - this meant that hot water was available after only an hour.

I am impressed with the service and would recommend the company to anyone who needs a complete building service, if you live in the Penzance area and want details, use the e-mail link from this blog and I will let you have contact details.

Love to all from a very happy Ainsley
