May 19, 2014. A Constellation of Vital Phenomena. My rating: 5 of 5 stars. I felt I had been through an emotional wringer by the time I finished reading and I'm glad I took the journey. The story is at once heartbreaking and uplifting and I defy you not to cry at the closing lines. Why it didn't win the National Book Award I'll never know. Anthony Marra deserves to win prizes for his writing. He has far to go and I, for one, will be keeping track of him to see what wonders he comes up with next.

September 24, 2013. Thames Sailing Barge 'British Empire' Update. Colchester Hythe c1900 with a Stackie in the foreground. I previously wrote about the Thames Sailing Barge, British Empire. And the rapid decline of a once handsome and rugged workhorse. The article was picked up by The Barge Blog. Who kindly included a link to my story and it seemed to generate some interest. I recently came across some information about Thames Barges on my local history website, Goldhanger Past. So, the sun continues to ...

January 11, 2014. 150 Year Old Holm Oak Cut Down in Maldon. They're cutting down the old holm oak in St. Peter's churchyard, Maldon. The base of the trunk has a fungal infection that has weakened it and it is in danger of falling down. It has stood in front of the Thomas Plume library for about 150 years and has become an imposing presence in the town. Without it there will be a huge gap and I'm sure it will be missed by a lot of people - I know I will. Links to this post. A Very Modern Car. One day a si...

Sniffy's Righting:: Gypsy in my blood

http://ramblingsofagrowingman.blogspot.com/2015/03/gypsy-in-my-blood.html

March 22, 2015. Gypsy in my blood. I've been researching my family tree again to try and find out more about my Gypsy heritage. We heard after my mother's death that her real father was a fairground worker and the man my grandmother subsequently married was not my maternal grandfather. My Brother and sister-in-law had a child who died soon after birth. He had Fraser Syndrome. There are other complications; I have found a record on Family Search.org.

April 11, 2014. Pope Francis takes on evil which some priests had committed. The poor ole pope taking on evil. So, pope Francis has asked for forgiveness for the "evil" damage to children caused by sexual abusers in the clergy. Does this include the clergy and the vatican who have moved these evil abusers around the world to remove them from the places and the people they have harmed? The people who have moved the abusers in an attempt to hush up abuse by an institution that is supposed to protect people?
