#FotoVorschlag : 'Dem Boden ganz nah'
PhotoSuggestion: 'Close to the ground'
...but close to heaven too 🙂
In the mid 90s, friend and I went on a road trip in north Wales (pretext: harvesting magic mushrooms!) and spent a few hours in Portmeirion
Beautiful place, but wasn't as mindf%$&ing as it probably would be now cuz back then I'd only caught the occasional episode on repeat.
#FotoVorschlag 'Zahlen: Sechs'
Photo theme: Number Six.
How could I post anything other than a photo from our 2011 visit to Portmeirion, shooting location for the 1967 TV series, The Prisoner?
"I am not a number, I am a free man!"
Currently on the set of "People" by Alan Bennett, but why does everyone give me a funny look every time I have a coffee break?

Watching the recent The Prisoner of Portmeirion documentary on the BBC. Is on the iPlayer for UK folks. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002fxw0 #ThePrisoner #TV #Wales #Portmeirion #Fandom
📺 Enjoyed this documentary about The Prisoner and Portmeirion, the Italianate town on the Welsh coast where the cult 1960s #tv series was filmed, as sinister as it is beautiful… #bbc #theprisoner #prisoner #patrickmcgoohan #portmeirion #wales
"Ginger's Birthday"

Both Ginger Rogers and Barbara Stanwyck were born on this date, but I don't have a figurine of Babs.

I was going to make a joke with Portmeirion. However, a breeze intervened, and I lost it.
I'm going to praise "Bob" instead.
"Bob" be praised.
Portmeirion and very tasty Welsh lamb for lunch. #wales #portmeirion #lamb

The fruits of summer are ripening. My wild strawberries, warm from the sun, bursting with sweetness; the blackberries forming, salmonberries blonding, thimbleberries broadening, blueberries getting heavy on their branches....

Oh, the industry of a little hummer,
As spring flings itself toward summer.

The enameled bird was a gift from a friend. The Portmeirion mug was a gift from a different friend. I love that they blend nicely in a teableau even though those particular people haven't met each other. Unconscious cooperation.

Very sorry to hear that Rachel Herbert passed away on 7th March 2025, at the age of 90. She gave a most memorable performance as Number 58 in the 'Free For All' episode of The Prisoner. "Tick... Tick!"

"Thursday After Thunder" teableau for 03/27/25
There was a wild storm last night- momentous lightning, ground-shaking thunder, hard rain- that caught houses on fire & blew out windows. Yet today, it's as if nothing at all occurred, just sedate calm all around. Storms be that way.

I love vintage greeting cards. The one here is from the 1950s.
