The Squarish Thingy With The Figure On Top
…(cheers for the title Frag’)….
…the squarish thingy with the figure on top is bro’ in-law Steve’s (significant) birthday gift and his “cake” decoration….
…twine wound in two directions around a custom made cardboard box, over a plain brown paper wrapping….glued on all edges and across centre of flat surfaces to frustrate any attempt at cutting….pinned at corners whilst drying to keep edge twine in place….
…hand written instructions added….
…two or so hours to “wrap”….
…some beer may have been involved….
….”brown paper parcels all tied up with string…(er…”twine”)….these are a few of my favourite things” – Mary Poppins….
…but possibly not Steve-o’s….(any more)….
…(note sticking-plaster over twine-cut)….
…at least twenty minutes of family entertainment….
…and the present?…
…800 Twinings Earl Grey teabags….
…(Twinings…twine…get it?)….
…and a giant Belgium biscuit instead of a cake….
…tea…check…biscuit…check…golfing reference….check….
…successful first project from the new work bench.
Still Here
…amassing unfinished works…
…trying to find time and space to relax…
…whilst getting to grips with the new self-constructed workspace….
….nearly there….
…nearly back to blogging!!
What Is A Boy To Do
…..that’s it….less than a crate of stock left…three items still to be collected….the large radio station record unit (that’s still in the pictures) has gone to it’s new forever home….
…the record shop is finally closed….(apart for some tax stuff)…
…now I can have my hallway back….
…and my free time?….
…I’ll be dealing with these….
…75 or so “donor” paintings, just waiting to be “Otcopied”, that have amassed whilst I’ve been busy….
…(has anyone seen my paint brushes?)….
…(and why does there seem to be rather of a lot of wooden items accumulating ’round the house?…are they possibly associated with “Toneware”)….
….(hmmm, I’m going to be busy, aren’t I?).
Now In A Near Kidney Shaped Bowl

Never Start With The Big Ticket Items
….unless you are brimming with stupid confidence that nothing could possibly go wrong….
…Toneware….now brimming with stupid confidence.
I Shoulda
…taken a photo this before I “octopied” it….
…the original artist tried to sell at the price in the picture below….
….and when it appeared in one of my local charity shop haunts it was priced at….
…which I considered to be way too much for the amount of beige it contained….waaay too much….
…then, after a long period of time, it popped up in the “free-bin” out side said charity shop….and feeling the need to adjust the amount of beige in the composition …it became….
…and was immediately claimed by Dee…who also likes partially covered beige…and the Otago harbour….
…but not cruise ships….
