The Gorwell Circle
Like a Neolithic Bloomsbury group, this magical circle of stones stand high up on the chalk ridge west of Portesham. They still command great glimpses of the sea and Golden Cap to the west. Even though they are all fallen they are still a sight of true calm and beauty.
I think so, although the nippers cried "not another pile of stones" as we walked the most pleasant of walks in perfect peace and quiet only buzzed by swallows and soundtracked by skylarks. Red Kites are now making more of a comeback in this part of Dorset - they are regulars on the slopes of Cranborne Chase to the north, but are still a sight that gets me excited down here on the Jurassic Coast - today we saw five different kites and all so close they even made the youngsters gasp.
It was the stones that shone today - there are 18 visible stones, not all visible and in the end even the nippers enjoyed a frolic and gambol by jumping, inspecting and generally larking about in the presence of such antiquity.
There is even a grotesque Friday Face in here somewhere - who says history is boring?

Friday Face
A chance find of a pile of posed photographers portraits got me ever so slightly excited that I may have chanced upon a selection by Ramsey & Muspratt, but I don't think so! They are still charming in their own right and you can't help but wonder where are they now?

Haven't done a FF for a while, but I can see many here. Is it just me or can you see them too? Green Man? OK, OK, too much home brew!

Hells bells! I wouldn't want to meet this fella on a dark night. I found him on the beach gawping at me...............he's now in the house gawping at me. Help!

Friday Face
I thought it looked a bit like Zippy from Rainbow, remember him? The rude orange one. Or perhaps it's what Mr Slater's parrot looks like? Anyhow, a joy to stumble upon this face of sorts at low tide.

I resisted all temptation to do anything rude! The time of squash has come. It is the season of squash, cider and fireworks. Hopefully all at the same time! Risotto?
