Okay, thank you very much for the compliment @ianpspurs
Okay, thank you very much for the compliment @ianpspursI agree withNick(look where that led) @Annb the kaleidoscope is splendid but I'll admit I'm a sucker for your kaleidoscopes. Your view on your creatives sounds like my view on shots I hit at cricket - others thought they were great but nearly 50 years on I'm still unhappy. Have a rest and reflect later on how people value your creatives.
Thank you very much @dunelmWinner for doing something even when weary and your very fancy address book makes a splendid kaleidoscope. Enjoy that flask of tea and the catawaterbottle.
Interesting postI have never heard about or read the attached before. Comes from this piece. As an aside, this guy sounds quite the character and comparing Bojo to him is genius. Stay away fron Skeggy is my advice.

feral media class. Under Johnson, many newspapers ceased to hold the government to account. Instead, they dedicated immense resources of time and effort to the production, dissemination and normalisation of the lies and fabrications produced by the Johnson political machine.
That mistrust of all media suits a certain type of leader - left and right - just fine. That has been the tactic of Trump/Putin/Modhi/Stalin/Mao et al. Their USP is you can't trust the media - especially the unfavorable outlets or experts.- trust me. What the COVID inquiry has exposed is the sceptical media, experts and our own eyes were right all along. The take no notice of that lot approach was a big win for Johnsonian/Trumpian serial mendacity and misrule. I know you're better than that and do your own proper research and thinking.Interesting post
Once we're rid of this administration, i'd say THIS, is the spear that pierced the bubble of the democracy we all think & hoped we lived in & the virus we now have to eradicate.
I might be the only one, but I've lost faith in most of the media,
It's all lies, darn lies, & Tory lies.
None I trust.
I'd love to think at some point they be worthy of trusting again....
but I won't hold my breathe.
Thank you kindly for the kaleidoscope comment @Lamont DApparently, at the game this afternoon, I was in the middle of a named storm!

I remember my mum talking about him. I think he thought he was Daniel in the lions den in Skegness between the wars. He shouldn't have played around with big ***** cats. The dog collar has no effect whatsoever on the lion.Interesting post

Yes, they are so wise @ianpspurs. I was really pleased that they vetoed walking in the rain.them there doggies are so, so wise.
Another smashing piece of brush pen artwork. I do like this traditional form of Chinese artwork. Pity that the wind didn’t blow those lights clean away - you need to tie a ribbon to a fence or tree and invoke the windsFbg 6.6
Stormy and foul weather yesterday. The ravens were being buffeted across the sky. The little birds closer to the ground fared better in that wind, and a whole variety of them were feeding in the relative shelter of my garden. I went out to put some night food for all the soggy nighttime beasties. I do feel sorry for them this wet weather. So on the ground were peanuts, cat biscuits my strays won't eat because they like the more expensive food Midnight has (yes they come in through the bungalow in the night to get Midnight's food - how on earth do they pass that message to each other the precise instructions where the better food is?), and I had some stale bread which I was going to put in the freezer to make toast with but I have some peanut butter that I really don't like so I made some peanut butter sarnies for them. No food is thrown away here.

Boy Badger gets on swing twice then has a good old scratch.
Both Boy Badger (and previously Pa Badger) covet that spot at that end of the swing where both cats Jade and Midnight sit, and sit there and have a good old scratch and groom. I don't get it, why do the Badgers want what the cats have?

Creative is another brush pen drawing, aided by easel Midnight.
And I now have to get ready for Skype....
Have your best day.
Oh, by the way, Mr Insensitive Christmas Lights Neighbour left those flashing, all singing dancing lights which the wind had ripped off his gutters and put in extreme disarray, on all night. And over the road, another bungalow had left their neat and tidy and immaculate well anchored Xmas light display (which totally covered every inch of their bungalow and front garden) on all night and there is not one bulb out of place...

Big hugs for you and Mr Slim.10.12

Still not finished writing the few cards I wanted to send - but have realised why I am struggling with what seems a simple task. It's the emotional impact of estrangement. Aunts address is still in my book, but neither she nor MrSlim will budge so am unlikely to ever see her again. Should I send a card? If so what can I write in it? Pretend all is well? Beg forgiveness for something we didn't do? MrSlim will never forgive being accused of manipulation and stealing, she will not look for the missing treasures because they have been stolen. Total impasse. This estrangement gives MrSlim and I even fewer reasons to visit UK.
Also realised I don't have current address for two of my sons. Although son2 moved only recently. Son1, rarely responds to messages or phone calls. I have no idea where he is living, or even if he has an address, because in the summer he was living in a van and moving about all over the country.
So today screwing myself up to bypass these issues and write remaining half dozen cards.
MrSlim was pressing on with his work yesterday, despite the back problems. He is currently restoring a pair of iron gates to replace the rotting wood set we have at present. I think he has overdone it because this morning he said he is not fit enough to carry on today.
As for me I have taken the final antibiotic pill of my ten day course. In theory I should be totally recovered and raring to go, but am still lethargic and lacking in energy or motivation.
