When Eric Ravilious encouraged his students to try wood engraving, Tirzah Garwood took to it immediately. Still in her teens, she had work accepted by the Society of Wood Engravers within a year. By 1927, she was exhibiting her engraving 'The Window Cleaner.'

These incredible wind-powered sculptures, known as “Beach Animals,” were designed by Theo Jansen, blending engineering with art. They can walk across the sand using nothing but the power of the wind.

I often chatted with her at our nail salon, and she is so lovely and gracious! Everything a true movie star should be! I remember when she was on the Oscars wearing the same dress she wore in North by Northwest, we laughed because she was thrilled she could still fit in it! Amazing actress. #HappyBirthdayEvaMarieSaintw

Eva Marie Saint turns 102 today North by Northwest (1959) She’s the oldest living Oscar winner and one of the last surviving stars of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Her scene with Cary Grant is still among the hottest ever filmed; every look, pause, and line lands. This is how it’s done

Delighted to be writing about the greatly under-rated Simon Raven, whose terminally seedy Alms for Oblivion sequence came to an end half a century ago.

I want to see no unmanaged outdoor fires, no discarded cigarettes and no single use bbqs anywhere in the next five days. We do not need those kind of shenanigans this week
Lucy Easthope@LucyGoBagJun 21
Get your older and youngest kin ready for the next few days. This heat will be brutal in some urban areas. Windows and curtains closed, really good telly on. Lots of water. Pee should be a pale yellow (yes, talk about pee). Eat little and often. Use lolly ices.
