Fight the shower

Although I think violence isn't the answer.
And peaceful protesting is key.

What else can they do..

Strike?

If you can't find a dog, knit one

My dog died under tragic circumstances a few years back.

It is well known that the real tragedy was that it was my parents who financed her murder.

So I have knitted a new one. I am debating giving it to my mum as a subversive Christmas gift.



Although I wouldn't mind something to stick on the end of my woolen dog lead.

Art-sy.

When strolling around the back of a redundant shopping center in Hull,
I came across this Plantsy Original.
And photographed it,
for your délectition.

Scrumpdiddlyumptious

There's no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going
There's no knowing where we're rowing
Or which way the river's flowing
Is it raining?
Is it snowing?
Is a hurricane a-blowing?

Not a speck of light is showing
So the danger must be growing
Are the fires of hell a-glowing?
Is the grisly reaper mowing?
Yes! The danger must be growing
[yelling]

For the rowers keep on rowing
And they're certainly not showing
Any signs that they are slowing!
[screams]

The Rowers - Roald Dahl (1959)



Rather a nice touch to slip it into Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971) don't you think?

Funny little critters

This is not a particularly hardcore post, although I did have to mutilate a toy pig to get the stuffing.

But.

LOOK WHAT I MADE.

Photobucket

And yes I did set up a miniature photoshoot in my bedroom.

What of it?

..& another things

Listen to these wonderful delights also, they tickle a certain fancy.



Beautiiiiiiful.




For thinking, swimming and cooking.




For those days when I can't find what to wear.




I would like them as my knitting buddies.


Oh and I can't find any of these on youtube but maybe have a research...

Foster The People - Pumped Up Kicks (RLYNX Remix)
My favourite thing about my life.

The National - Afraid Of Everyone (We Plants Are Happy Plants Remix)
(CONSTANT REPEAT)

Swim Platform - Paranorma

Willow Smith - Willow Smith - Whip My Hair (Starfoxxx Remix f. Nicki Minaj)
Bit of a sore thumb here, but what the hell.

Tame that nasty shrew

I have been wrong about a lot of things, notably when I argued for two days that paraphernalia just meant things relating to lighters and matches and er.. paraffin type things.

I do think that country and western is the new folk though.



I hope cowboy boots stay away, else I shall be resorting back to dance music.
