Mule gasp: Request 003

So there I was in a big small room with about 50 people I'd never met and we all drawed a picture and I drawed some of the picture although perhaps I should have tried to draw bigger and more noticeable as my contributions got kinda eaten.

You can see the results here. See if you can spot cardboard armour being obscured by a big bollock.

Oh yeah and the above picture was inspired by the words 'mule' and 'gasp'. Thankyouverymuch.

Tides killed Harold Bishop (before it turned out he wasn't dead)

My future brother in law is a drummer in a band
A band called Seagull Strange
They have an album out called Better Angels of Our Nature
I'm not in the habit of plugging things
But it turns out I liked album more than I figured I would
Cynical me
It's pretty darn good.

Focus your eyeballs on their doings and sayings here:

Godspeed you giant porcelain emperor. Claret Cliffs 037



I've joined some kind of drawing round-robin club thingy called Anna's Roundabout. It's like a cult without the creepyness or the cyanide laced Koolaid.... Okay it's not like a cult at all.

I understand it involves a piece of paper being sent in the post to all the participants in turn. They add a bit to the drawing and then send it on to the next person.
So you end up with a picture made by loads of people with no knowledge of what everyone elses intentions or expectations for the picture are.

Just hope I don't ruin it by dropping bits of dinner on it.

feeving 'ound. Claret Cliffs 036

The things they say about flat pack furniture are a bit unfair in my opinion. They're pretty easy to put up really.
However the things they say about paper-cuts are all true.
ow ow ow.

Bovved. Claret Cliffs 035


I think it's about time for some shameless product placement.
Bovril will sort me out. They'll give me what I'm due.
I'm not sure they'll be so keen on me portraying Bovril as a ruthless killer though.

Wonky floaty. Claret Cliffs 034


My first experience of amateur comedy nights leads me to believe that dying on stage is incredibly painful.
More painful than pregnancy and tetanus put together.
So unless you try standup or give birth to a rusty metal baby you're safe.

Before I try I need to thicken my skin up quite a bit. I tried coating myself in layers and layers of PVA glue but it was just too much of a temptation to peel it off.... and now I have no arm hair.
