Just got back from a wonderful holiday in the south of France. Plenty of sun which was a real treat :)

Lots of inspiring things, I was especially enjoying the typography and a particular street artists work who places mustache stickers over signs. Some of the more unusual are below

I also particularly liked the weight gain powder in the gym opposite the apartment
called “MUTANT MASS”

I have absolutely no idea what this is but it had to be photographed…

On the way to Monaco for the day…

If you visit Nice be sure to go the the old part of the city called “Vieux Nice” which is a warren of small old streets full of specialist shops and amazing finds.

OK so those aren’t exactly your typical holiday snaps but you don’t want to see me in my swimming costume - do you?

A relative of mine recently took this photo whilst traveling in Spain.

The expression is priceless :)

We’re snowed in today, and on looking out of the window this morning I saw a snowball rolling itself across the field! The wind was so strong it was collecting snow and as it blew it along it was gaining size until it was over a foot across! PS That’s my arm holding the snowball!
