So it has happened again! There are hundreds of sheep grazing on the golf course. This is great for sheep and reducing the local councils maintenance bills, but sadly not so good for dog walking. But they were only on there a few months last time and they had gone before Xmas, so it will be interesting to see if they are taken off by next year.

Instead of walking over there I have decided to design a series of flags. These flags are alternatives to the ones that would have marked the holes on the greens. I have slightly over 18 posts on this blog now, so I have taken each blog post and sketched out a design for a flag for each blog post. This then builds a visual set of 18 flags spanning the history of the site while it is dormant, a period of about 2 years.

I dont know if I will ever actually make the flags and stick them in the ground at the points that are relevant to their content. But a series of designs is a start. I thought they were quite heraldric and if ever I redesigned them I go down that route. They are a visualised version of this blog in a kind of secret language!

But for now this blog will go quiet again untill the sheep go, as I took a photo of the sheep it occured to me that it is cooler now and Autumn is here. Autumn that’s a good topic for another blog.
