Careful you don't trip over that tripod there. 🙄 #gym #SocialMedia #influencer #art #caricatures #WeekendVibes
Grotesque caricatures of a stereotypical gym couple. They're posing in front of a phone camera fixed onto a tripod. Big veiny muscles are bulging horribly all over their bodies, and they have ridiculous fake tans.

May your #February be a pleasant one. 🤞
Marmot holds a placard that reads: 'don't make lonely people feel even worse' whilst Mime is on one knee blowing kisses. February 14th is just another day. Appreciate the special people in your life the other 364 days of the year and not just when companies want to sell you things. Visit a nature reserve. Imagine this whilst you go about your February days: a late 1980's TV sitcom about a man with 4 daughters and a domineering wife. The main character is named Dane, he's a scaffolder and his best friend is Jack, a wise-cracking security guard at the local sewage treatment centre. Dane likes nothing more than watching Bromley F.C. and sinking a few pints with Jack at their local pub, The Sly Fox. The sitcom is entitled 'Keepin' 'appy', and the theme song is performed by Dennis Waterman. Sit and experience the rain once in a while. Have a good old chuckle at a grown man vaping like a choo-choo train. Aw, bless him! Set aside a day to cook some food with music on and relax in the evening in whichever way suits you. Have you descaled that kettle yet? lost in the lines dot com

Today's agenda. Artists will do what they do. #Draw, #paint, #perform. Be happy in your #art. #introvert
An agenda, written in childish fashion with crude drawings beside each item. 'Agenda: pop on some music; draw some pictures; let the world carry on'. Beside the music item is a picture of a musical note. A pen scribbling is beside the drawing item and a picture of Planet Earth beside the carry on world item. Beneath the agenda is a smiley face.

Mushy #ValentinesDay guff. Hold their hand and skip merrily along. #ValentinesGift
A medieval plague doctor runs merrily hand-in-hand with a skeleton.

Smell these. The next #ValentinesDay, is less than a month away. If you fall for it all, then this design - available as a card, #TShirt and more - may be your thing. If not, well done. #ValentinesGift #WeekendVibes
A bouquet of bright and colourful flowers but no... upon closer inspection, these are actually skulls. The artwork is in a messy graffiti style with splattered edges and thick outlines.

I hope it's a good one. 🤞 #HappyNewYear
January 2026. Mime has his hands shoved under his arms and grimaces as he struggles to keep warm; Marmot holds a placard saying 'cold, skint, miserable'. January suggestions from Marmot & Mime Support pubs and restaurants; they’re not just sitting there waiting excitedly to welcome you back in December. Don’t use phrases like “this will be a year full of challenges”; January is bleak enough as it is without your ominous foretelling. Try saying “nice to see you” instead of “Happy New Year!”; maybe they’re not in that ‘year full of possibilities, yay!’ mindset. Switch off the morning news and watch 80’s and 90’s cartoons instead; much better! Descale the kettle; it’s about sodding time. It’s disgusting in there! Stop looking for life advice from unqualified strangers on social media (why are you reading this?!?). Purchase some new underpants from a ‘real’ shop (not online). When they ask if you want a bag, smile confidently and say, “no, thank you”. Walk proudly along the street with your pants in hand. lost in the lines dot com

Rain returns, but the threat of #snow isn't far away, esp if you read the tabloids. Some love it. Some hate it. Some wish it upon others; an all-encompassing shroud of icy misery. Who let them into the #ChristmasParty?!? #Christmas #ChristmasGifts #PlagueDoctor #WeekendVibes
A series of 4 cartoon heads; 3 of which are snowmen, but 1 is inconspicuously a medieval plague doctor. The snowman to his right looks concerned, as though he is the only 1 to have noticed the intruder.

The spirit of #Christmas will never die. Neither will #Santa. Did you hear the sounds of gears and rusty metal grinding downstairs on #ChristmasEve?... He was in your home. #CreepySanta #ChristmasHorror #SpookyChristmas
The word 'joy', crudely carved into Santa's forehead. Close-up of Santa's frightening dark eye sockets, illuminated only by unnatural light where his eyeballs should be. Close-up of Santa's metal neck, consisting of scratched and rusty rings. A nightmarish depiction of Santa as a cyborg with the word 'joy' carved into his forehead. Glowing dead eyes, scraggly oily hair and a lower jaw which has been replaced with rusty metal. Santa's head sits upon metal coils and pumps, giving the impression of a cold and terrifying abomination.

Whistles, squeaks, hisses, and pops ring out, but the worst of all are the ones that go unheard. Eeeeeeergh! Jesus! #Christmas #ChristmasDinner #fart #ChristmasShirt #flatulence #ChristmasGifts
Two grimacing faces of men wearing paper Christmas hats, immersed in a cloud of brown gas. Text reads: 'Silent fart. Deadly fart. Christmas lunch.'

1/2 #TrueCrime story, based on an untrue crime story. In November 2024, 43-year-old father of 2, Billy Boggleson, avid rambler and nu metal fan, set off on a hike across the lush green countryside of somewhere unpronounceable. He was never seen again; until later that night.

Don't put all those #skulls away, just yet. #Halloween may be over for another year but that doesn't mean you can't still represent the morbid. #SpookySeason #skull #autumn #SpookyArt #WeekendVibes
A graffiti and abstract style skull that could be either laughing or screaming, set against jagged bands of contrasting colours.

Don't waste all that juicy flesh. Eat your #pumpkin's guts and let the goodness flow through you. Savour the taste and lose your mind to the flavour. #zombies #Halloween #Halloween2025 #SpookySeason
A dead-eyed zombie clutches a pumpkin and bites into it, pulling away the string flesh and seeds. Text reads: 'Mmmmm... pumpkin'.

There's still time to pick up a #pumpkin or two... or few. #Halloween isn't far away. Make your jack-o-lantern a reflection of your mood; all 15 of them. #HalloweenTShirt
A montage of 15 different cartoon pumpkins, each displaying a different emotion.

The #weekend has finally bloody arrived. If #RealAle - or #CraftBeer - is your thing, head to the #pub and enjoy a lovely pint of #CaskAle. Or should I say... 'casket' #ale? Mwah-ha-ha-haaaa... nope, I shouldn't. Less of that nonsense. #Halloween #SpookySeason #WeekendVibes 🍻 🧟‍♂️
Two zombies enjoy a pint of real ale that has been poured from a coffin, in which sits a corpse. The corpse links his lips and holds one of his eyeballs in his hand which gazes longingly at the pint of beer. Text reads: 'casket ale'.

Dip into #horror for #Halloween. Even #vampires get terrified. That moment you realise your clothing was in the toilet as you unleashed hell. #HalloweenVibes
A series of 4 pictures depicting a vampire walking towards and then sitting down on a toilet, straining and then standing back up. The vampire looks horrified to see that the back of his cloak has been in the toilet and is dripping with poop. Text reads: 'dip into horror'.

Whilst I'm busy working on other art projects, please forgive me for recycling older artwork. The #zombies are lonely. They may eat brains but they still want to win your heart and feel the warmth of #love. Zombies are forever, not just for #SpookySeason. #autumn #WeekendVibes

I'm not quite sure which is my favourite part of #homebrewing; naming the #beer and creating my own label for it or enjoying the beer with friends. I'm really pleased with how it turned out, on a gorgeous sunny afternoon no less! #BeerLabel #BeerLabels #homebrew #RealAle
Beer label. A moustacheod gentleman with top hat and monocle wearing nothing but underpants, socks and garters and dress shoes squats whilst cupping two strategically-placed lychee fruit. Text reads: 'Dry Balls: cascade pale ale with lychee flavouring. ABV 5% from pint Harmonics. A beer cask with an insulation jacket on, placed on a table draped in flowers. The 'Dry Balls' beer label is affixed to the front of the cask jacket. A hand holding up a pint glass containing a third of a pint of a delicious-looking pale ale with a bright white head. The beer is clear and looks golden in the sunshine outside.

We all have #skulls. Skulls unite us. Celebrate the wonder of skulls. Here's a bright and colourful skull. You could wear this skull to a gig, to a #festival, to a meeting with a chartered surveyor... the possibilities are endless. #WeekendVibes #FestivalVibes

We know #FestivalSeason means 'changeable' #weather. Here is the #forecast for today. A high chance of #metal #rock and all that these genres spawn. #summer #WeekendVibes #FestivalVibes
A series of four weather icons which also depicts different subgenres of metal music: a cartoon sun shouting and raising the devil horns hands; a glum-looking cloud with corpse paint; raindrops all singing along; a lightning bolt with a mullet hairstyle.

The sun's shining. A #heatwave is upon us. The natural musical choice in such weather is, of course, #metal. #BlackMetal, #DeathMetal and all its many other glorious subgenres. For the love of all that is unholy though, have a wash first, please. #WeekendVibes #FestivalSeason
