Banks, Bridges and Rows

On a variable Wednesday, we headed down Frodsham Street onto Eastgate and left down St. John Street, where we waited for a bunch of students to shift for a better look at the Welsh church. Peeling blue railings barred the three-arched doorway, atypically clad in yellow sandstone. At the end of the street, we crossed to the amphitheatre to see small kids being drilled as Roman soldiers. Having…

In memoriam: Tony Bramwell. Condolences to his loved ones.

Photo 1 by Bill Connell or Les Chadwick; photos 2 & 3 by Tony Bramwell.

“[Prior to reconnecting on the bus to Litherland Town Hall in 1960, Bramwell and George had last seen each other] when he was a delivery boy on Saturday mornings for one of our local butchers, E. R. Hughes, who had a shop in Hunts Cross. […] I can remember the first time that George zoomed around to our house in it [his new car], a big smile pinned to his face. He honked the horn and Mum and I came running out. ‘Get in, Mrs. Bramwell,’ he shouted. ‘I’m taking you for a spin!’ We climbed in, and off we went on what was to be the first of many Sunday afternoon drives. It was the kind of thing that families did back then, going for a drive after lunch on a. Sunday and stopping off at some quaint little old-world teashop for a pot of tea and a few sticky buns. We would go to little landmarks like the famed Transporter Bridge at Runcorn, or to local beauty spots like Frodsham, where there were sandstone crags you could scramble up. Sometimes we went to the medieval black-and-white Tudor town of Chester, which on a Sunday was mostly shut up. We were quite happy to stroll around window-shopping and then have have tea in a cobwebby little teashop down a cobbled alley, or we’d go to Chester Zoo, one of George’s favorite destinations.” - Tony Bramwell, Magical Mystery Tours: My Life With The Beatles (2005) (x)

One of the most horrific stories Health Impact News has ever covered involving child sex trafficking through the foster care system is a story we have been following and reporting on in Arizona since 2017.

It started with the story of Devani, a 2-year-old child who was removed from the family who loved her, simply because the mother had a previous history of drug abuse, and then was put into the home of David Frodsham, a top civilian commander at Fort Huachuca, a major Army installation in Arizona, where 2-year-old Devani became part of a pedophile ring and was repeatedly raped.

David Frodsham was eventually arrested and is currently in prison, but Devani was not placed back with her family, but with another foster family, where 80% of her body was burned. See:

Arizona Child Removed from Loving Family and Placed into Foster Care Where She was Repeatedly Raped – then 80% of Body Burned

This story is so horrible, that the national corporate media has also reported on it, and last year (April, 2022), Michael Rezendes, writing for the Associated Press, provided new details of the Frodsham child sex trafficking ring operating through the Arizona Foster Care system, as three of his adopted sons came forward to file lawsuits for the years that they too were sexually abused and trafficked.

Frodsham Street Public Toilets, Chester

For my first blog post on this site, I decided to set the overall tone of the type of strange, unsettling and intriguing topics I will cover from this weird and wonderful universe we live in.

So, what's the best place to start? The bathroom, of course!

The Frodsham Street toilets in Chester, England are reported to be haunted by an apparition, greatly regarded as being Chester's most disturbing ghostly resident.

Going by 'Tom', a name that the living residents of the area have given him, as no one seems to know his true identity. He his described to be a pale look to his character, but very visually striking eyes, which most witnesses state to look 'sparkling and very alive'.

It is believed Tom died in the 1950's or 1960's by means of suicide in or around the general vicinity of the toilets. It is claimed that Tom can sometimes be observed with blood pouring from his wrists which have been slit open, or holding a razor blade.

He has been noted to appear in the corner of the men's bathroom, staring at those who are attempting to use the urinals.

Sightings have been said to have increased since 2011 after the bathrooms had been renovated. Tom does not seem to be pleased with the change, and frankly, nor would I if I were him.

My, what a difference a week makes! Last Saturday I was sitting a mock Welsh language exam and afterwards rushing over to Frodsham to take down my last exhibition, while today I've a relaxing day looking after my mum-in-law after last night's drinks reception at the new art show. My mother-in-law's still a little poorly after her accident a couple of weeks ago, so we're having a quiet weekend. I'd hoped to take her to the new exhibition, but we can do it another day, as it's on 10am till 4pm every Tuesday to Saturday, till 22nd June. It's in Gallery 3 at Castle Park Arts Centre, off Fountain Lane, Castle Park, Frodsham, Cheshire, WA6 6SE, where I'm exhibiting with Louise Barson, Maggie Hollinshead, Diana Bernice Tackley, Kate Hughes and Cathy Mulhern! As you can see from the second photo, we had great fun hanging all the work on Tuesday! On Wednesday the wonderful Sue France opened the show with a lovely coffee morning, and we partied last night with anyone who fancied seeing the art!

And that's not the last event! Louise is running a creative session 11am till 1pm on 1st June and I'm hosting a drop-in session making earrings from recycled items 1 till 3pm on 6th June. Please see the fliers in the images below for more details! Thanks! Sam aka LymphomaLass xx

Starlink Installation Frodsham.

Here we have a Starlink installation carried out in Frodsham by Andy and a Ethan for a customer who was fed up with the 5 mbs connection she was getting from BT so took the plunge into Starlink and the high speeds it had to offer.

She contacted us for a bit of advice and then ordered the equipment and 2 weeks later rang us up to book the installation. We installed the dish as out of sight as possible and fitted onto the annex building with cable routed into the lounge, the dish was fitted on an alloy mast and galvanised wall bracket to prevent rust and create a permanent mounting solution for the Starlink system.

Customer had ordered one Starlink Mesh node which didn’t really cut so advised her to achieve full coverage by using a 3rd party mesh system which she is ordering the TP link Deco system.

Happy customer with 220mbs

Misdirection in Chester

A somewhat chilly short stay in Chester began with a smooth Monday afternoon direct rail journey.  The interminable Manchester apartment expansion eventually gave way to a pleasant backdrop of sheep and cow pastures as the train looped into the Cheshire countryside.  Arriving promptly, we trundled our cases to the lift where a woman selfishly pressed the button to ascend alone, leaving us to wait…

started writing a "gained in translation" post about how "since there are no fish in the clear stream / sweet and proper it is to drink this water" is an anglophone poetry/cultural reference And a qu yuan reference but i can't now, either too clumsy or too pretentious and it won't come out

(i panicked a little and checked against the frodsham translation (p.82) and he has something completely different so like. sits there.)

(tbf there are lines of poetry in this book where, comparing, i Do think i did a better job at writing poetry. but still.)
