Trump claimed today that "if the price of oil comes down, Putin's going to drop out of that war". Same Trump that insists there can be no U.S. sanctions on Putin until Turkey, Hungary and Slovakia stop buying Russian oil. A move that would surely drive the price of oil...up, no?

I visited a small Hiroshige exhibition in London - here’s a small selection of the woodblock prints I liked 🙂 (the images were captured with my phone)
In the foreground 2 boys play with their pet dogs, while a villager leads his horse home. In the background a silhouette of travellers - one on horseback - cross a bridge, with the full moon rising behind themVillagers steering rafts laden with firewood & charcoal down a river with overhanging trees; a full moon is rising
Some geiko (geisha) - female entertainers - greet each other outside a shrine; they are carrying parasols to protect themselves from the falling snowTravelers wearing protective thatch costume & hats scramble for shelter as a sudden burst of rain catches them by surprise
