New Signs

So it's only taken me just over 2 years to make a street sign for outside (what a gonk).

I stumbled upon this art deco fire screen a little while ago in a charity shop and thought he would be perfect. After a day of painting this is what the finished product looks like. Neato huh?

Thank you to Louise Waugh for the use of your hand writing, temporary it may be, but i think your chalk skills were.....well, skill.

Royal Birthdays

Happy Birthday Your Majesty. Many happy returns, don't forget to make a wish when you're blowing out your candles. I celebrated by drinking luscious fresh peppermint tea from your face. x

Kitties

My cats are such cheeky little hoots!

Featured in the first photograph is Dexter. Dexter is a very handsome fellow and such a gentleman, he is very courteous and ever so placid; as you can see by the way he's just chilling in a plant pot.

Prudence on the other hand is a whole lot of fun and always up to mischief. So it was no surprise when my Dad showed me this picture he took of her having a good old natter with a mouse.

YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!

Narc Magazine

Narc is a free monthly music magazine based in the North East, published on the last wednesday of every month and is now stocked in ruby blue.

It's a pretty neat magazine as is it's accompanying website.

So if you're feeling a little behind the times when it comes to new music, this magazine will surely make you hip once again. This month there's even a free compilation CD, YAHOOO!

Limited Stock, so get one while you can.

Best Friends

So it turns out that my new bike Winston and i are best friends, i mean he's just 100% bodacious. I just know that we're going to have a super swell summer, just us, the sunshine, and the open road :D

Easter 2009

Last years Easter really was a triumph, as demonstrated above.

Dozing on Dolly = LOVE

I wonder what this year will bring? More of the same i hope :)

Wishing you a Happy Easter x
