Disaster Day

When you heavily rely on something and it “goes down” the effects are immediate and so it was today. I was uploading the photos from my iPhone to the iMac when the fuse blew on the plug and the mcb tripped on the consumer unit. I expected it to be a two minute find the fault and fix but it turns out that the fault lies in the iMac itself.
A visit to Truro and the Apple Repair Agent will be high on the list of things to do this week.

Having planned a leisurely day it and had the first interruption with the iMac the second arrived shortly afterwards and was a call from the rugby club but it gave me an opportunity for a coffee and catch up with the electrical contractors before heading back home via town to restock on fuses.

Todays photograph will be the first in a series from Truro Cathedral, the access to areas not normally open to the public was too good an opportunity to pass up.

“The Finn Cross stands about eighteen inches high but contains a beauty, a power and mystery that defies any sense of scale.
Michael Finn flew as an RAF pilot in the Battle for Europe 1944 -45.
Towards the end of his life, Michael produced several bronze crosses, and in 2009 Canon Philip Lambert organised the commissioning of one of Finn’s bronze crosses for St Monica’s Chapel in the retro-choir.
The cross seems to defy gravity, with various brass blocks seemingly being held together by themselves. The glass plinth upon which the cross sits was designed and constructed by students at Falmouth University”.

I think it looks wonderful.
