These align quite closely with the interests of Dr Nacho, who specialises in testing the law of gravity by pushing things off tables, and the study of fruits containing seeds.

It's all happening for us train enthusiasts (or is it just me?) as today marks 200 years since the Stockton and Darlington Railway opened in 1825 - the birth of the modern railway.
So here are some of the many railway linocuts I have done over the years - too many, I hear you say? Surely not… 😂

Family history can teach you so much.

In the late 19th century, millions of migrants left Germany as a result of religious persecution, economic hardship, and political uncertainty.

Among them was Nikolaus Schrod, a cabinet maker from Frankfurt who - along with his wife Bina - moved to London to start a new life in the 1850s. 1/3

And I think last weekend the bulletins were including coverage of whatever Fartage was saying that day 😕 I don’t tune into 6 Music because I want current affairs coverage.

Thank you! I’m glad you like it. Linocut is quite a therapeutic way to spend time, I find 🙂

Haha! I’m glad you like it! 🚣

Here’s a #linocut print I’ve been working on (in a bit of a hurry). I think I might try some more like this… It’s a view along the towpath that runs by the River Cam.
