From a Cornish Clifftop


          For me, this Wednesday will mark nine weeks of The Solitude. 
There is a longing to be Elsewhere. To see the sea again, to watch green hedges sweeping over Welsh hills. To follow clouds and the light changing on mountains. 


Some photos of another time, another place. The cliffs between Looe and Talland Bay. Spring 2018.

Good for lifting the spirits.

I am with you absolutely with the longing to go places -see the sea again, visit a favourite spot, to actually get in the car and GO somewhere instead of seeing the world on foot. I think we will be channelling extreme longing for some time to come . . . I would settle for just "going for a drive" - the way my parents used to do on a Sunday afternoon. They would get to their destination - a favourite spot in the New Forest, or down to the beach at Lee-on-the-Solent or up to "Little Switzerland" above the Meon Valley, get the deckchairs out and read the Sunday papers and look at the view. That would be lovely right now. Haven't read a newspaper here for 2 months now!

Thank you for taking us down to Cornwall - I hope the memories are still vivid for you, and that eventually you will be able to visit those cliffs again in person.

Oh, me too. I like home but I long to see different places and, of course more than that, the family.
