Seats decorated by the Minnack Theatre’s founder and creator Rowena Cade, using a screwdriver in her own special mix of concrete. Each one represents a play that has been put on at the theatre.

Highlights from my post-Christmas trip to the southern tip of Cornwall. Â Thank you to Anya & her family for inviting me to join you for a few days!
I’d also like to say a special thank you to my brother Steven, who bought me a year’s subscription to Adobe Photography suite for Christmas. Â I’ve enjoyed editing these photos using Adobe Lightroom rather than the freebie editing software I’ve been using to date. Â A whole new world has opened up to me!
