I like to have a view. What can you see from your windows? Through the window in the kitchen (and through the window in my office) every day I see a hedge. There are  little brown birds in it, dickybirds - sparrows and other birds. There's a viewpoint in the upper garden. From there I can see beyond all the hedges - to the fields or the sea. There aren't many houses to be seen. Today we looked at a house in Truro. That one has a view of allotments and the city.

Julia McKenzie made a lot of beautiful little birds out of maps - folded pages like Japanese origami. But what kind of bird are they? And why are they significant? They are swallows - considered good luck by sailors, because of showing that land is near. (A swallow is never seen in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.) She painted swallows, too, with maps on their bellies, forked tails and red throats. I love this exhibition.

Bes avel mab an vodreb o ev cosin Calvin ewedh?  Families are fascinating. My ancestor had two wives. They were sisters. The first wife, Mehitabel died, when their son Calvin was only ten years old. T hen Stephen married Mary, Mehitabel's younger sister.  So, Mary was Calvin's aunt and his stepmother. Stephen and Mary had a son, Henry. That son was Calvin's half-brother. But as the aunt's son was he also Calvin's cousin?
