Monday 29 September 2008 - A first mention of the Redgrave gig was brought to my attention by Nilay from Istanbul; the power of internet! It is from the One Suffolk website...

This afternoon I helped Ben move out from Blackthorpe Barn...
The notorious 'Dick-Head' piece below...
I want to display Ben's work with my paintings, perhaps on a return gig at Cornhill Walk. I'm suggesting we do not mention the title 'Dick-Head' at the shopping centre, but of course Ben is adamant if the piece is shown, so is the name. I adore 'The Dolphin Seat'. Thankfully, it didn't sell at Blackthorpe Barn for £3,480 so we can put the price up to £10,000 minimum. It's a superb piece.
I also love 'The McManus Wheel' and circle. The shoppers at Cornhill will love it too...

On my way back from Heaven, while picking blackberries, Georgina from The Diss Express called resulting in a photo session with Mark Bullimore at St. Mary's Church, Redgrave...
Inside St. Mary's, the venue was a grand setting for the St. Edmund painting...
Here's a test shot before Mark arrived...
Tuesday 30 September 2008 - Andy Abbott, head of photography at Archant came round to photo 'St. Edmund' and 'Blooming Bury? Yeah!' This means I can varnish the paintings for Redgrave... Arsenal 4 Lisbon 0 - that's more like it!

Wednesday 01 October 2008 - There's a news report about alleged 'Holocaust-denier' Gerald Toben has been arrested at Heathrow. I find this bizarre. Why is some one arrested for an idea? We don't arrest members of the BNP for their ideas. This just doesn't seem right, even if Mr. Toben is a misguided misinformed nutter, why is he being arrested? What happened to freedom of speech? The charge is apparently based on 'denying, approving or playing down' the Holocaust...
'Holocaust denier' Gerald Toben arrested at Heathrow
Something about this isn't correct and it is the latest step that makes me question the 'official story' of the Holocaust. Does that implicate me for arrest? I'm questioning the official story of everything now-a-days. I'm not suggesting people were not killed. They quite obviously were. My friend Witold, a Polish survivor of 5 WWII concentration camps is a primary witness to murderous atrocities. I know I could, and indeed have, discussed the matter over coffee and chocolate biscuits with Witold, without being arrested...
What about the concentration camps the British ran? Africa? What about the 'genocide' of the North American Indians? What about the British conquering a 1/3 of the world? Did we simply knock on doors and say 'Excuse me old chap, would you mind awfully if we take over your territory?'
