WELCOME! These pages try to show what is beautiful or interesting or entertaining in life and in nature, and highlight some developments in science and technology that benefit people and the environment. You will also find introductions to many good stumblers here, and hopefully some interesting links and a few laughs!

P.S. Even though sex can be beautiful and/or entertaining, and is always interesting, there is no "adult" stuff on these pages. It's only fair to warn you.

A SPECIAL WORD OF APPRECIATION to those of you who take the trouble to identify (and/or provide links that will get to) the authors of photos, paintings and other works of art, and who thank other people for stuff that you borrow or for giving you a nice review. As far as I am concerned, whether you have 1 fan or 1,000 fans, people like you are the real "Top Stumblers".

IMAGE SEARCHES - If you are looking for good images that stumblers have already found, or new images in various categories, I have some suggested sites and image searches that you may find useful. Try image-searches-art, image-searches-photos, or image-searches. These are tag lists that I add to from time to time.

HELP FOR STUMBLERS - Here is some essential reading, including some excellent guides, and some examples of HTML for hyperlinks and for laying out images and text (that work for both IE and Firefox).

See also "Subscribing to interesting stumblers" and "Friends & subscribers - what has changed?".

I'm taking a break from stumbling for a couple of weeks or so... SU fatigue setting in, and some other nice things to do!

I'll leave you with this little item (author unknown), snaffled gratefully from Pearl's delightful pages.

Meanwhile, hopefully you'll find something to interest you here, or check out my personal list of Gold Stumblers, where there is much treasure to be found.

Pictures taken on a walk in Leeds, by my daughter Rachel (a budding photographer!)

P.S. Rachel tells me that the first picture at top left was actually taken by her photographer friend Andrew Stone, whose site is well worth visiting.
