Wifi-less in Gower

[steepholm]

I've now got the photographs of our Steep Holm trip from Dru. I've put some of my favourites under the cut.



On the battlements (gull-deterring alexander in hand)



The life cycle of a herring gull, ab ovo to roaring out its victory having just shat on my shoe.



A grey seal pops up to take a look



A peregrine falcon, resting and in flight



A plant that Dru assures me is known as welcome-home-husband-though-never-so-drunk



The island, near and far



Ever the flibbertigibbet, I'm off again now for a few days, to revisit my friends Ronald and Ana (and others) on the Gower Peninsula, where we'll be devoting the weekend to the myth of Perseus, a subject about which I know little more now than I did at the age of 10 - but that's all about to change. I will be netless until Sunday, and until then I leave the digital world in the capable hands of you, oh friends list.

I like you and the seal especially. And the island, which I cannot look at without thinking of you.

So that's what it's doing precariously stuck on the roof.

Yes! Thanks to the way that we come to identify icons with their users, whenever I see her pictures of Steep Holm, I actually feel like I am looking at steepholm herself.

I feel that way too, pace John Donne.

No man is an island, but a woman may be?

Apparently so!
