1 2 3 4 5, this is number 25...

Oh scheisse, this one is definately late?

Whats been happening? WELL...
On 5th it was Bonfire night, of course, so we went round to shanty house & munched on nommy gingerbread which I made (Silje helped a bit, we went 1/2 and 1/2 with the icing) & looked at the fire & did story stuff etc....... and then I skipped off to Zef's (www.popuppirate.com) and had grrrrrrrrreat fun with truth or dare Jenga & then Worms. WORMS! Never played it before. Pretty sure I mostly failed. Needless to say, after that night I was not very in the land of the living the next day.
The land of the mostly dead continued into the weekend & beyond (insane amounts of snot & coughing & ohhhh all that sneezing...) but I went to shanty house again & did a LotR1&2 extended edition watch anyway. That ended at 5am. Eek.
Anything else happened? Yeah... some stuff. Mostly no-work stuff. We're currently in an advertising project, joint work soooo... I'm a little tricky currently as I'm used to working on my ownsome lonesome. Plus I like to come up with actual final pieces, but we just have to make visual roughs and BLERGH! Oh well. End of friday we get a new brief - childrens books! Highly exciting. Can't wait.

Oh oh, today I got a book in the post, it's very laavly. "Fingerprint: the art of using handmade elements in graphic design". Nom nom nom. I miss doing more graphicy stuff. I also miss doing more PRETTY stuff (for uni). Faye & I were talking about that t'other day, it's true: we can't do pretty stuff. It has to be all conceptual all the time, and thats a bit poo. Some illustration IS just plain old pretty. Alas.

I feel like I have a moustache, due to all the snot & blowing my nose parts of my face (nose etc) have gone all crusty. Hiw delightful.

Right, lets throw some pictures & linkages at you. My face is too tired to think of anything useful.

If this beast will ever let me upload any imageywotsits, that is... commmmeeeee on...

Now, have some linkages... (ohhhh BOLD...)

Yum, a disgustingly long link. Now, if someone bought me those boots I would love them (both the boots and the person who bought them for me) for a very, VERY long time.
