Best Nine From Instagram

Best 9 photos from 2021 on Instagram. Collages more popular than last year.

A Game Of Dixit

We had a game of Dixit yesterday afternoon. Can't really explain the rules as they are long winded and complicated. It's fun though - better than Monopoly or Ticket To Ride!

Exquisite Corpse

Family fun making "Exquisite Corpse" drawings and collages.

Archie Home For Xmas

Hoorah! Archie is home for Xmas and already constructed this personage from an old dummy body and a hairdressers Mexican wrestlers masked head.

A Walk On The Wild Side

Yesterdays wander down the "conk conk" path near us after dropping off my prescription form in that little post box at the group practice. It's a bit grim and grotty round the back of the dump yards but not without it's certain charms and we spotted a squirrel dodge behind that stump of a tree. That land seems earmarked for yet another hastily considered housing estate ( little boxes made of ticky-tacky as the old song goes ). We went through the small park and avoided all the dog poos. Hazel wanted some sparklers for New Years but the dodgy garage man who sells fireworks down the back alley said they were like "Hen's teeth". All due , he said seriously, to Covid, Brexit, the high price of oil and that ship that got stuck in the Suez canal.

Blakemere Antique Emporiums

Vickersway Park

Nice wander over the travcks to Vickersway Park. Longest walk for a while. Nice and sunny and milder than of late. Sat under the impressive willow arch. Budgies and other small birds chirping away in nearby aviary.

New Hand Carved Rubber Stamps

Rubber stamps carved from erasers and printed onto blank postcards.Originally for a Pollocks Toy Museum collaborative project with Stephen Fowler and others but that seems to have been postponed until 2022. So I may do a new version for that if it ever materialises.
