Dragons

I have just learned about a splendid bit of public art called the Taunton Deane Dragon trail. Around 30 colourful dragons erected in and around Taunton (Deane in Dorset, not MA) for children to climb on and be photographed with.

Sensibly, the dragons will be expired and auctioned off in October. No time to get tired and tatty.

With thanks to LPH for drawing my attention to the dragons. You can read all about them at http://deanedragons.co.uk/, a site which it took me a little while to find, not having read the original notification very carefully and having confused dragons with dodos.

But there was an up side as, on the way, I came across an art site from Saatchi, from which it was clear that he did more than provide a platform for body parts, the offensive and the inane. The fatuous if not the vacuous. He, or perhaps they, operate a site at http://www.saatchiart.com/ which appears to be a showcase for modern art for sale. And despite the presence of some body parts, I actually like some of it! But either the site or today's broadband is a little creaky and I did not quite get the hang of how it all worked.
