Haha, yeah, pretty much! I can quite understand the record’s comeback, as good vinyl does have its own warm sound… I’m not sure the same can be said for cassette?? I think the article said it’s more about ownership of physical media, which many youngsters might never have experienced (quite a thought!) I’m sure they’ll enjoy it, until they…[Read more]

Oh man, I should have known not to say that word just yet!

Oh hey, I remember those! 😉 I mostly remember them being chewed up and playing with the tape. As it happens, I was only recently reading an article saying the cassette is making a comeback. What’s old is new again!

Well, Christmas is racing towards us – maybe you should put one on your list! My productivity is bad enough as it is, I don’t need extra distractions!

I love it! My sister got a lava lamp in the nineties when I think they qualified as ‘retro cool’, and I remember being entranced too. I haven’t seen one in the shops for a while here, though! Maybe there’s another comeback around the corner.

What a cutie! And yay for awkward – adolescence was only the beginning for me, it seems 😛 Puppies do tend to wear it a little better than us humans, don’t they – that said, maybe their attitudes aren’t so different!

Oh yes, they were totally posing to be photographed. I think they’d seen my kind before!

Aww, he’s adorable! I like the use of blue in this one, it really works. I remember one of the first times I travelled to London, I took my camera. By far the best photos I took that day were of some squirrels in St. James’ Park – such fun!

Happy Birthday to Philippe – a year younger, I think that’s how it works now! 😉

O-M-G, that looks incredible! And, having just had dinner, envy is well and truly setting in reading about apple crumble. The best. Blackberry crumble is also a favourite at this time of year. There’s a very popular baking competition on TV here at the moment and I would rather like to try it again, but I feel like me in a kitchen would require…[Read more]

Well that explains where I’m going wrong, don’t it? Bah! In that case, who needs cool anyway 😉

Definitely a cool kid!!

Haha 😛 All the cool kidz wear granddad cardies and jumpers (or at least they used to, I’m out of touch now!) so you’d have been trendy around here! 😉

Glad to hear it! 🙂 Yes, all is well here too.

Cute bird! And an interesting selection. The sepia flowers are refreshing and distinctive in their way, but the colours have IT, especially where flowers are concerned. I tend to reserve sepia for ‘old’ things/landscapes (a cliché surely worthy of next month’s celebrations) but you can’t argue with results!

It does look very cosy. My granddad had quite the selection of knitted sweaters and cardigans, and they always looked super comfy. We used to call those and similar ‘old man jumpers’, but I don’t care anymore as long as they’re comfortable! Bonus points for the Batman tee scenario, obviously.

Oh, and hi again, I guess 🙂 It seems like a while…[Read more]

Haha, he looks so cheeky! I just googled Toucan Sam, and one of the first images is a halloween costume dedicated to this curious character. That’s you sorted for this year!

OMG! Well, obviously that would change everything!

Boy, that’s one reflective trailer – it can only be yours! Much as I love the outdoors, I was never sold on camping and actually refused to do it as a kid, but trailers and camper vans make the experience sound rather more fun.

Ha, he’s sooo cool! The emu has landed – or maybe he’s in the process of landing 😉 I’m also as bad indoors as I am out, especially if there’s fancy floral wallpaper; I’m constantly looking for shapes and faces!

You’re probably right. Ice cream? I scream! 😉
