Ginger Zulu Album Covers


Along with the usual ecumenical adverts showing racial minorities, there's a pernicious increase in adverts showing ginger people. It's as if the powers that be are trying to normalise gingerness and portray them as people like you and me - as if! We all know they're lizard aliens in zip-up human suits...


Yesterday I had a Cornish cream tea and Hay had the bright idea of recreating famous album covers using me as a model. This is her first attempt.



Think I might continue the theme in future posts. Suggestions welcome.

Spotted this amusing advert in St Mawes.


Hay performed her March, cold water swim on Saturday in the River Hayle. 


Brilliant place to enter the water. It's right by Lelant railway station and 100 yards from our AirBnB place, so a hot shower was just a short walk away.

We visited a Trelissick House National Trust property yesterday and I saw this portrait of one of the past owners.


He bears an uncanny resemblance to Michael Caine in Zulu.


Not a lot of people know that...
