plane

Well, here we are, 365 days after we started. Here's where I'll be doing it all again.

diet

There were no free brownies left when I got there. Good job that I'm on a diet - sorry, healthy eating plan.

wheel

wood alien

cinema

drinking glass

This is Hattie; she prefers drinking from a glass.

Christmas Day

Merry Christmas everyone. I realise this looks like a dodgy 70's Christmas card. But these are our candles in the fireplace.

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve and the Easter chocolate is already in stock. Give me a break.

Ai Yamaguchi

This is a print by Ai Yamaguchi, one of my favourite artists. Her work can be a little dark.

running shoes

silhouette

railway tunnel

sequins

tracks

Santa Yoda

Slightly creepy.

cold and damp

shopping

You've gotta love internet shopping.

leaves

moon

da Vinci

We managed to get to the da Vinci exhibition at the National Gallery tonight. Some real highlights but my favourite has to be Salvator Mundi or Savior of the World, and I'm not usually into religious iconography.

work tinsel

Finally we got a bit festive at work.

christmas tree

plastic

tribal

This is a tshirt designed and printed by my clearly talented son, Liam. I wholeheartedly approve of what he gets up to at school.

net

stilts

books

advent

radiator

The view from my sick bed.

chocolate

Made some chocolates for the advent calendar. Now I've just got to make the advent calendar :)

dice

the Wookies

A really good band. They're all about 14.

last leaf

tree

This is in small celebration of finishing my first book club book - When God was a Rabbit. Strangely. it also reminds me of an episode of Tales of the Unexpected called Skin, about a man had a tattoo on his back by a famous artist and an art dealer ended up killing him for the skin. Creepy.

rainbow

These are my snazzy socks. I am wearing them.

kindling

There's a cafe around the corner from where I work called Green Cuisine. They always have some free cake or bread outside to try, but today they had lots of kindling for sale instead.

champagne

I won this champagne today for the fancy dress competition at work last Friday - I still maintain that Ian (day 322) should have been the sole winner; but very grateful nevertheless.

beads

Went for a coffee and a lovely chat on Monday night with Cliff. There are some lovely Christmassy things about.

phonebox

Our lovely local yarn shop, the Wool Bar, were instrumental in this piece of 'yarn bombing', covering an entire dis-used phone box. If you're in Worthing, go and check it out - inside there's a little (knitted) woodland scene with birds and animals.

West Pier

Captain Jack

Ian at work dressed in his amazing Captain Jack Sparrow outfit and made LOTS of cash for Children in Need. He should definitely win 'best dressed'.

Hattie

This is Hattie, who has today joined the Purtell family. Very cute and hard to photograph as she's very fast on those paws. Welcome Hattie.

clubhouse

cosylights

These look they'd brighten up a dark winter night; they're also made with feathers and look like they'd catch light at any moment.
