What a spring and summer it has been, travel, injuries, deep thinking, too hot to bop and in the end cooling rain and thunder
April 2026: We made it to Iceland which you can read about on my quest pages. The time spent traveling there and back bought forth lots of profound thoughts and experiences that have stayed with me since. Traveling always brings forth many aspects of a Craft nature, interesting & symbolic artworks to be seen inside historic buildings, with stories to tell for those whom can decipher. Representations of the Serpent Priesthood, all there for those who can ‘see’. The ‘All Seeing Eye’ too, depicted as being ‘up on high’ or in the sky & is sometimes known as the ‘eye in the sky’. Of course this is all symbology that relates to something else, something that has been hidden in ‘plain sight’ for centuries. If you know the answer you will also know the recent ‘trip to the moon’ to be so false… All seasons and all weathers were experienced on this trip – the wonder and magic of the land of Fire and Ice.
In photography, it’s not about perfection at all, it’s about raw emotion, how the photograph make one ‘feel’. That’s why this is my favorite photograph taken for a long time. Snapped in an instant from a moving car.

I have been saying this for years. Time to open your doors of perception.
May 18th 2026: I am still in a lot of pain, so phoning my friend the chiropractor. Thank goodness for Amazon when one is injured! Thank goodness i have an appointment with my chiropractor friend on Thursday. The pain has been intense. But I will have some quiet days to recover with time to think.
May 25th 2026: I don’t mind recovering in this weather, far too hot to venture out, i would be staying indoors anyway, seeking the ‘Ice Queen’ within….. Not really myself yet. Seeing a ‘physo’ at my docs next week. Lots of lovely Quest photos to browse through though.
June 1st 2026: Thinking about dragons and a long forgotten truth… What if the stories of the past were based on something real… and what if what we’re told today is only part of the picture? Long forgotten kin that once lived outside of our dreams. Ancient legends describe dragons with wings, scales, and terrifying power. Modern museums display giant creatures from a forgotten world. Coincidence, imagination, or fragments of a much older memory? See my sleeping dragon below….

June 2nd 2026: We are all individuals and must be accepted as such. The physio program was meant to build my muscles but did not work for me! They did not work, for they addressed the symptoms and mot the cause. The good news is I am slowly recovering.
June 16th 2026: A wandering mind travels to realms of darkness, escaping the heat…
June 27th 2026: Missing the days when i could walk for miles & miles. Don’t take anything for granted dear friends.
June 29th 2026: There’s a much greater game afoot. Manipulation by media….
July 1st 2026: A ‘Craft’ day was planned but dear Karl took one look at my garden yesterday and was like a man on a mission to clear it all, even before he had a coffee! What a lovely gesture and i cannot thank him enough! It is worth bearing in mind that he is very poorly himself. A true brother of Craft in every way.
July 4th 2026: Lightheartedness; I found the cure for my low mood & depression – the new Take That single! Brilliant & cured me in an instant!
July 5th 2026: Many thoughts take me back in time to the decade of the 60’s in Cambridge for a mention of Waffles cafe came up on FB. I loved Waffles, it was very retro even in the 1960’s and always an ‘in’ place to hide out. Sadly demolished for The Grafton Centre, now on its own way out…
July 7th 2026: I keep well away from politics, religion & trends. All controlling, all fake, all purposeful – don’t be fooled my friends… In life i adhere to the Templar code, a code that goes back to the beginning of time itself. We can’t change the ‘bigger picture’ but we can make sure our own part in it is positive.
July 9th 2026: It really is too hot for anything apart from sprawling on the bed with the fan on! But so grateful for my life and for being alive…
July 18th 2026: I am so happy to say i am getting better – i still can’t walk far but i am not in pain anymore – very happy!
July 28th 2026: Just watched a black squirrel on my patio, twas like a stunning creature from another realm. very ‘otherworldly
July 30th 2026: There comes a point when the sun is not ‘fun’ anymore as we glimpse into a future world. A world far nearer than we think…
Rain! What a gorgeous and precious scent!
August 5th 2026: I stepped out of the illusion and entered into the truth. Who is willing to join me?
August 6th 2026: Not many folks are willing, or even brave enough, to step out of the illusion to see our reality for the fake it actually is. It’s not about what you see but what you don’t see…
August 7th 2026:
They laughed at the lies
Were blind to the illusion
Ego led and dead….
August 9th 2026: Sadly another week of horrendous heat & staying indoors. Keep cool and safe everyone.
August 21st 2026: Letting go of items that bind one to the illusionary world is an important part of a Craft journey.
When the truth is revealed to a curious mind.
When the adventure keeps going with still plenty to find.
With a parting of ways of what was once cozy
Saying goodbye to what was once rosy
It is not love and light that will lead us all home
But a path of detachment for a freedom to roam..
Eras come & go & with them certain ways of life & living. Nothing last forever. I silently watch & witness the fading of this era….

I drift upon the tides of time awaiting the coolness of the ice to take me home..<
