Keep forgetting to post, so in the nick of time, here goes … This was inspired by the Halloween trip where daughter #2 decided to borrow a #leopardoutfit from my friend’s #dressingupbox … #inktober2023day27 #inktober2023 #inktober2023beast

Had a wonderful #pictureflow session with @PicBookCourse at lunchtime today. Not sure I was expecting to google #babytapirs nor try and figure out how to add in some #lightandshadow and a #smallsculptor either …

It’s Pissarro’s birthday today and apparently Mary Cassatt said he was such a brilliant teacher that he could have taught stones to draw correctly.

Am obviously behind the times as learnt a new word on Friday - #neek. It is seemingly the merge of #nerd and #Geek. Surely you have to do your own fringe if you are a #neek?

Jill Murphy was born on this day in 1949 and I grew up on her Worst Witch books. I am still disappointed that I was not allowed to call any of my children Mildred or Maud. #JillMurphy #TheWorstWitch #Mildred #Maud #summercheck

I swear we watched some of these in school: I definitely remember the train track one, building site, fireworks and electric pylons. Really it’s no wonder I have a thing for apocalyptic horror fiction now…

Your regular reminder that British public information films were like brutal horror films condensed into 30 second chunks, and shown during primetime (and children's) TV shows.

Loved Glenda Jackson on many levels for many reasons. She seems to have had a life that she lived well. A most brilliant actress. Fare Forward.

If you don’t know this book (where’ve you been?!) it will not disappoint you. It will charm you. You’ll find yourself smiling as you read. It will warm your soul. It will nourish you. You will return to it in dreams and contemplative moments. #3
