De Lün, terdhegves mis Genver

Monday, 13th January


My a welas an argebmyn ma en glawjy buss en Falmeth. Thewa rag disqwedhyans ow tòchya morladorn e'n Gwithty Arvorek. En kensa my a welas galleon en gòlyow leun warbedn loor leun. Wòja hedna my a welas dr'ew dastewydnyans an loor hanter iselha a grogen. Pur godnyk! Calish ew dhe gemeres foto an loor leun. Ma re a splander rag ow hamera. Saw thera howldrevel teg ha spladn e'n mettin ma.



I saw this advertisement in a bus shelter in Falmouth. It is for an exhibition about pirates in the Maritime Museum. At first I saw a galleon in full sail against a full moon. After that I saw that the moon's reflection is the lower half of a skull. Very clever! It's difficult to take a photo of the full moon. There is too much brightness for my camera. But there was a beautiful, splendid sunrise this morning.

Or perhaps I ought to write 'my world is blue'! I have two books with blue covers and lots of blue-wrapped chocolate. I shall read the books and eat the chocolate with great pleasure. The books are both written by women, one in 1811 and the other in 2023. There are troubled young people in them. Will there be happy endings?
