Wake up.

End of September mornings are tough. Even alarm cat has slunk off to snooze somewhere.

Cards.

Pokemon battles. The great leveller.

Weights.

Heavy basket of washing. I’m taking you all with me if I go.

Autumn starlings.

The swifts and swallows have gone. Only to be replaced by the chatterings of gathered starlings weighing down the telegraph wires.

Ahead.

You know you are not allowed upstairs Bonnie.

This is a grey area the stairs isn’t it?

Does one head count as being upstairs or on the stairs? My dog has out-thought me.

Pink.

This is Millie’s expression on finding out that I may have bought her a “pink” scientific calculator.
I didn’t obviously but was it a bit cruel of me to let her entertain the thought for a while?

Seriously though, if you’re going to make calculators, at least start with a T.A.R.D.I.S. design not a pink  one, although they may need to figure out how to make fluffy ones for Evie…

Story time.

Gruff reads one and then I get a turn…eventually…

Square eyes.

I think I need a fog-horn to get through that tv induced daze…

Interview at Gwernyfed High School.

I was interviewed by the Creative Champions at Gwernyfed High School in Brecon today.

I talked to them about how blogging has helped me as an artist creatively. I thought it only fair to draw them as they interviewed me. As you can see, some of them directed me in how they wanted to be drawn.
It was a pleasure to visit such a beautiful school. Thank you for having me today!

Wrapping your own exercise books for school.

It’s that time of year when Millie brings home her exercise books to be covered for the year.

I’ll leave you with Millie on this one…

Smashing conkers.

There is a particular way of getting into a conker. Leg up, heel aimed at the spikey little sphere and smash down with full force revealing your shiny prize inside.
