| "Celestial Swimmers" © Allan Renshaw. |
I have been talking by email this week with Allan Rustad-Renshaw .
.Allan is one of the strongest men I have ever met.
Several of my regular silent readers will remember him when he used to go to Rochdale Hamam I havnt seen him in maybe,what, 14 years?.Allan is one of the strongest men I have ever met.
He now lives in North Wales.He is an artist. You can see some of his work & writing on his website here.
I shared with him some photos of him from the Olden Days at The Turkish Baths.I also share them with you too..............dont I look young & rather handsome ?(Rather than the mature George Clooney-figure of today)
(by the way,my Sepia Saturday post is on my Hebden Bridge blog this week.)do not cease swimming in the seas of love,
rising with the wave, then descending;
now the wave sustains me, and then I sink beneath it;
love bears me away where there is no longer any shore.

;o~Mary
dude...digging the art...all about it...
Cool. Of all his work, I believe I like "Celestial Swimmers" best, and then "Matrix 2."
I know nothing of Turkish baths, but, life goes on....
You look like you might have wreaked some romantic havoc... ;)
I can't believe they're closing it. Next they'll start closing the camera obscuras.
F&M Dont Be Scared!!!!
Thanks Brian
Teresa..........Arghhhhhh........!:)
Kurt.Allan suggests a meeting of Old Timers to mark the passing of The Turkish Baths (it closes in a few months)A Sort Of Naked School-Reunion...........
They may be closing it but you'll still have all those good memories. :)
Love the 'Celestial Swimmers' and the Rumi quote.
And you haven't changed a bit : )
The trouble with swimming in the seas of love is that the water is so bloody cold.
