myserious manequin
wonky photo, but nice effect
clive and a spare moustache
how do christmas crackers know so much about their owner ? so often hairless people get combs, and boys get make up items or lovely hair decorations.
at a christmas lunch yesterday clive got a false moustache, not unlike his own moustache. still, it’s good to carry a spare in case there are any unfortunate facial hair incidents.
through the veil
i should have left this one to easter really. but, you know.
behind the reflection
i did this deliberately. not sure how well it works though
warning – polished floor ?
polished. see what i did there ? nearly.
gloves
gloves on a soggy day
fantastic music tv
i don’t normally do telly reviews – so excuse my attempt !
if you’re interested in live music and love jools holland-type showsthen check out From The Basement on SkyArts. I know i work for the company that broadcasts this, but i don’t do anything with telly things, so i think i’m being impartial. You can watch lots of clips on you tube here. i think it’s rather special.
Whilst i’m mentioning TV i can tell you i also watch My Name Is Earl, The Mighty Boosh and Flight of The Conchord. and not much else really.
that’s the trailers over with. now, back to the blog …
christmas in brussels
niceness in grande place. (probably spelt wrong)
toast bar
regular readers will know i love signs like these which show the food looking proud to be eaten. this ‘toast-bar’ also serves chips, as seen here.
i initially read the sign as ‘retro-snack’. toast would make a good retro snack
pew surfing
it’s the craze that’ll have ’em flocking back to church. it’s pew surfing, as demonstrated by our church warden. he’s seen the light. have you ?
esther – the people’s friend
our friend sally is an illustrator and as a result esther appeared in people’s friend last week !
polish motorway
this is one of my favourite photos from my trip to poland in september. slightly tinkered with to get the retro colours, but it sums up all that is great about modern life.
found passport photo
i can’t explain the buzz i get when i find an actual lost passport-sized photo in the street. it is quite marvellous. especially if it’s face down and you have to turn it over to reveal whether it’s a real one or not.
