It is how I respond to my world. I am driven by mood and intuition. I always begin outside. In that sense I am a landscape painter. Seasonal changes catch my attention and I can rarely resist the changing colours and textures of the natural year. I sketch and paint in watercolour, charcoal or oil then return to the studio where I make larger mixed media pieces guided by memory and feeling. Work gets cut down, torn up, collaged and reformed.

  • “'The Paranoia Was Fulfilled' – an Analysis of Joan Didion's
    “‘THE PARANOIA WAS FULFILLED’ – AN ANALYSIS OF JOAN DIDION’S ESSAY ‘THE WHITE ALBUM’” Rachele Colombo Independent Scholar ABSTRACT This article looks at Joan Didion’s essay “The White Album” from the collection of essays The White Album (1979), as a relevant text to reflect upon America’s turmoil in the sixties, and investigate in particular the subject of paranoia. “The White Album” represents numerous historical events from the 1960s, but the central role is played by the Manson Murders case, which the author considers it to be the sixties’ watershed. This event–along with many others–shaped Didion’s perception of that period, fueling a paranoid tendency that reflected in her writing. Didion appears to be in search of a connection between her growing anxiety and these violent events throughout the whole essay, in an attempt to understand the origin of her paranoia. Indeed, “The White Album” deals with a period in Didion’s life characterized by deep nervousness, caused mainly by her increasing inability to make sense of the events surrounding her, the Manson Murders being the most inexplicable one. Conse- quently, Didion seems to ask whether her anxiety and paranoia are justified by the numerous violent events taking place in the US during the sixties, or if she is giving a paranoid interpretation of com- pletely neutral and common events. Because of her inability to find actual connections between the events surrounding her, in particular political assassinations, Didion realizes she feels she is no longer able to fulfill her main duty as a writer: to tell a story.

  • 1 Committee(S) Dated: Standards Committee 5 October 2018 Subject: Declaration of Gifts and Hospitality in Relation to the Specia
    Committee(s) Dated: Standards Committee 5 October 2018 Subject: Public Declaration of Gifts and Hospitality in relation to the special provision made for the Lord Mayor and Shrevialty as Ceremonial Office Holders Report of: For Information Executive Director, Mansion House and Central Criminal Court Report Author: Vic Annells Summary To update the Committee on the Lord Mayor and Shrieval declaration of gifts and hospitality for the year 2017/18. Recommendation(s) Members are asked to note the report. Main Report Background 1. Following the meeting of Standards Committee on 20th February 2015 it was agreed that as of 1st April 2015 gifts and hospitality which breached the threshold, as applied to all Members, would be declared unless they fell within the caveat outlined within the previous report of ‘special provision’ for the Lord Mayor and Shrievalty as ceremonial office holders. 2. The last report on gifts and hospitality was made to the Committee at its meeting in October 2017. Current Position 3. Since the last report, the Lord Mayor has made declarations at broadly three monthly intervals, declaring gifts and hospitality publicly via the internet page - http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/about-the-city/the-lord-mayor/Pages/default.aspx The gifts and hospitality are detailed on separate documents. 4. Members will be aware that the Shrievalty commences in September, therefore, the attached appendices summarise the Shrieval year of Alderman and Sheriff Timothy Hailes and Sheriff Neil Redcliffe. 5. The Lord Mayor and Shrievalty have no separate declarations to make to the Committee under the special provision. All gifts and hospitality have been declared in the attached appendices.

Strategy for the Historic Industrial Environment The Brewing Industry A report by the Brewery History Society for English Heritage February 2010 Text by Lynn Pearson Brewery History Society, 102 Ayelands, New Ash Green, Longfield, Kent DA3 8JW www.breweryhistory.com Foreword The Brewery History Society (BHS) was founded in 1972 to promote research into all aspects of the brewing industry, to encourage the interchange of information about breweries and brewing, and to collect photographic and other archive information about brewery history. The Society publishes a Newsletter and a quarterly journal Brewery History, which first appeared in 1972. It has also published a national directory and a series of county-wide surveys of historic breweries; the Society’s archive is held by Birmingham Central Library. Further details of BHS activities may be found at <http://www.breweryhistory.com>. The ongoing threat to the historic fabric of the English brewing industry was discussed at the conference From Grain to Glass, organised jointly by English Heritage (EH), the BHS and the Association for Industrial Archaeology (AIA), which took place at Swindon on 13 June 2003; the joint BHS and Victorian Society study day From Hop to Hostelry: the brewing and licensed trades 1837 -1914 (Young’s Ram Brewery, Wandsworth, 25 February 2006); and during the AIA Ironbridge Working Weekend (Coalbrookdale, 29 April 2006).

  • Reciprocal Clubs
    RECIPROCAL CLUBS RECIPROCAL CLUBS Using our reciprocal clubs is easy, opening up a worldwide network of 153 clubs in 36 countries. Most of these clubs have websites which are almost invariably full of good information about their facilities, times of opening, and detailed location. Members should make their own arrangements directly with reciprocal clubs. If a letter of introduction is required please contact the Oxford and Cambridge Club on 020 7321 5176 or email [email protected]. Members should always carry their card of introduction (the membership card issued at the end of January) when visiting reciprocal clubs. Obviously Members should observe the rules and regulations of the host club. Clubs are listed alphabetically by country and then by city. The textual commentary attached to each club entry shows the principal facilities. Members seeking more information are invited to make direct contact with the clubs concerned. Members are reminded that several clubs do levy a guest charge. All bills should be settled directly with the reciprocal club and before leaving. We learn much from the comments of our Members. It would be positively helpful to tell the Secretariat about your experiences in, or your impressions of, any club that you visit. The Club website www.oxfordandcambridgeclub.co.uk will be updated regularly, so please check online for any amendments or additions. At the time of going to press details are correct.
