another one closes bitches!
I have no regrets though, just a feeling of relief and purpose that supports a strong sense of justification.
So, filmmaking projects are now on hold and it looks increasingly likely that I'll not be able to get access to the footage I shot on the last project. Damn shame as I feel its some of my best work and I put a lot of time and effort into it. I'd completed 11 edits by the time it came to a halt.
I'm missing the historical swordplay at Hotspur School of Defense, an endeavour that quickly became, and remains, a genuine passion for me. There is a group down here that seems to offer some form of historical fencing, but my experience leads me to believe the quality of inspired and learned coaching at Hotspur cant be found anywhere else. I enjoyed Swash in Leeds but it was clear Hotspur have one of the leading instructors.
I'm off back to Newcastle in a couple of weeks and may do the Reivers Bike Route from C2C. Then I'm off to
Samye Ling Monastery in Scotland for a couple of days to catch up with friends
and chill.
I've increased my art projects to one a night, but I am having trouble locating flint down here. In the north east you can go and pick it up off the beach.
I came across a website with some american indian wooden utensils with rock art carvings on them. I'm on the look out for some similar items to have a go.
Got my tent and a couple of new bags for the bike so I'm all set to go on the
Reivers.
