Aidan Meller gallery are in Turl Street Oxford City, UK. They have a piece of art that caught my attention, A child prodigy drawn by John Everett Millais.
Child prodigy's had great teachers and training, people in their lives that brought them on, in a great way and really they owe everything to these people.
My first great teacher was Rhys Dogan, he took me from nothing and taught me how to write and more importantly instilled confidence in me, I owe a great debt to this man.
My second great teacher was the great Anthony Heath, Professor of sociology he taught me social skills and generally how to mix in society.
So this picture just conjures up a good feeling. The link is below

Left a comment on the Times newspaper http://www.thetimes.co.uk/ congratulating Trump on becoming President http://www.trump.com/biography/ and who should write back to me but Alan Bennett https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Bennett who wrote the Lady and the Van book and film.
Anyway, John Lewis http://www.johnlewis.com/garden-trading-outdoor-barometer-clay/p231733895 do some fine barometers, some to go outside and some for inside some are like a clock and some are digital.
Have not bought one yet but definitely keep it in mind for when I get my pay check at the end of the month.

This is one for all motorcycle lovers, yes there is art involved because you can paint your bike, how cool is that and there are some pretty cool bikes out there just waiting to be painted.
There is a special offer on the magazine at the moment 3 issues for £1 and see if you like it, I personally think paint and motor bikes are a great hobby.
You can park it all over the place and just make it stand out with all your art skills.
The link to Great magazines is below.
good luck with the painting

Hi Guys
Was walking down Cornmarket Street in Oxford City and met a guy selling candles.
Bought one the size of a horse and has served me well. Cost £10
I like candles very much, dead useful especially being on an electric meter because I am always forgetting to top up. But lucky for me there is a Coop where I live and I can take the electric key there, so not really a problem.
I first fell in love with candles at our church, Wesley Memorial Church which is a Methodist church. It is open most days and I go in and light the candles, you are supposed to chuck them a donation for doing it but I usually forget.
If anyone is interested in lighting candles for free I will give you the link for the Church, I should add that the children are allowed to light a candle as well for free
this is the link

Hi Guys
I of course went to the cinema in Oxford City and saw Star Wars. I went back to find out about Spiderman and found a Star Wars mug with a straw (£1).
I cleaned it and took it straight to Café Nero and had a nice Frappe Latte in it for £3.
It is brill, and I keep it in my reusable black bag from Marks and Spencer.
The link for the Cinema is below
that's all for now
