Day Ten

Emily has suggested that in addition to Derek Jarman I should also look to the masters for inspiration; Capability Brown, Inigo Jones and Old Uncle Jim.

Mr. Brown.

Mr. Jones.

Old Uncle Jim tended an allotment in East Finchley, directly behind the Martin Primary school, and he occasionally produced a sweet nugget of substance, but mainly I recall my mother concocting our dinner from endless bags of rhubarb, runner beans, swedes and turnips.

Unless I have an epiphany in the next couple days I'm siding with Derek Jarman's vision of landscaping.
