The music festival

Easternhaze 21st -23rd July - Somerleyton estate

Mad Mag

The fifth Mad Mag finished with a bang with "Rocket Robins" firework performance on saturday night. This one day festival is staged on the Magdelene estate in Gorleston. there used to be large meetings in the early fifties but the area had not been used before. Started in 2001 it stages music, dance, workshops and stalls for various community groups in the area. Even poetry for the first time this year.

Another 6 years and it will have a legally binding right to be held every year. Who could argue against that?

Street Theatre

Alfred Hitchcocks "The Birds" - Live performance Lowestoft High Street 07- 07 -06

Apparently the seagull is playing the part of either Tippi Heddron or Rod Taylor.

Can't tell from here as all seagulls look the same. As this performance is about natural diversity the seagulls in the original film are played in this adaptation by pidgeons. With cones employed as extras. The theatre group is funded by Nature with the odd help from Mankind.

When Adverts lie.

This caught my eye

Is Bill Stickers this small I wonder?

The dangerous bus stop

At the dangerous bus stop

Even the cones go around in groups.

For safety sake watchout!!!!

Are they waiting for a bus or intent on mugging you?

Infrustration because they can't board the bus because of being physically incapable.

Watchout for the one acting as look out by the bins over there.

He's the ring leader.

Or prehaps encouraging the bins to gang up on you?

The dangerous bus stop.........

Before your journey it was non of this.

No walking infront of the taffic you just hold your arm out to summon the bus.

Watchout for that paper cut from the ticket you have purchased and have held onto for the duration of the journey.

The worry of getting the correct change.

Indeed have you the correct money for your fair.

Do you know where your journey terminates....?

And no talking to the driver whilst the bus is in motion.

....but you have alighted now...

All that has passed......

At the dangerous bustop......

Operation Zeebra

Film still from "Maltese Dreamer"

The past couple of weeks I have been dodging the football over in Germany. By a strange twist of fate the recordings I made of the Quill art exhibition poems will go off to Germany. As films they will have to play off other world entries in a poetry film submission called ZEBRA Poetry Film Award 2006. No cup I think.

Details can be found by the following link.

http://www.literaturwerkstatt.org/index.php?id=124&L=1

So far I have the following films to choose for entry for this.

A Somewhat Fuzzy Recollection of a Collection -Sue Wooden

There's still a couple more I haven't finished and even all these wont fit into the required maximum duration of ten minutes. But still it's good that this has come out so quickly and has an avenue to to express itself. There's a model for doing this elsewhere with other writing groups something I would like to explore in the future.

is whispering something to me.

Sue has already finished recording her poem.
