Waited 45 mins watching the giant London Plane tree in our meadow for the 200+ jackdaws (a clattering) to set on on their evening flight after a rowdy social. Someone texted my hubby just as they left so he didn't get a pic. I am cryin' & dyin' laughing!! @rspb.bsky.social for viewing numbers 😂

I only had Nutella, and so slathered it onto an american style mega thick 'n' floofy pancake! Yours is only the 2nd pancake I've seen on here today too!

Finally devoured 'Butter' by Asako Yuzuki. The complex dynamics of female relationships with food, bodies, work, lovers, friends... so deliciously wrapped up. The descriptions of eating soy, butter & rice alone vs the pressure of a big cook for friends & fam, all inspired by real crime. Wow #booksky
On the table are 3 books; Butter by Asako Yuzuki which has a golden yellow cover with a picture of a dairy cow, and smears of bloody fingerprints, Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata which has a pinky purple cover and a brown soy sauce fish container, and Strange Pictures by Uketsu which has a striking neon green and red cover that also has a soy sauce fish, and squid sushi and drops of blood haning off both.

Having a sort out of boxes this weekend, came across these tatty old comic books from 1958 - 1976. "Rick Random's Perilous Mission" looks retro awesome. The White Cockade is... of its time. Think I need some colouring pencils and some picture frames.
A collection of tatty comic books from 1958 to 1976. There are some Spiderman, and Superman Pocket Books priced at 15p each, and a sci-fi title called Rick Random's Perilous Mission. The others are mostly army and navy titles.

Finally got round to playing Jusant; simply delightful! Uncovering a story of a tower world gone dry via left behind letters from evacuees & set against some intricate, smartly designed rock climbing environments, what an experience, loved every inch.
And where can I buy me a plushie Ballast??
A character with shortish dark hair and a black feather cape is blowing into a conch shell trumpet. On their cheeks are two neon blue line markings. On their shoulder is a small blueish creature called a Ballast. The Ballast has its eyes closed listening to the shell. It is plump with little stumpy front legs

Just finished The Plucky Squire; a refreshingly joyful way to battle egotistical bad guys and corporate minions. Loved how it experimented with so many mini-game ideas in one big picture book adventure, flipping from 2D to 3D magically, and literally playing on words. Awesome narration too! ✒️
The character Moonbeard the wizard from the video game The Plucky Squire. Moonbeard has a white, crescent moon shaped beard, yellow sunglasses, and a sky blue robe. He is slomped in a beanbag chair, with a video game controller in his hand and a bowl of snacks next to him.

Bagged a bargain selection of posters from MovieManiacsDesign at today's Guildford ComicCon, plus some DieHard+Zombie mashup comics & a small figurine of a cat drinking beer. Great to see so many families chatting to busy creative artists, illustrators, comic book writers & costume makers.
A selection of posters made to look like famous newspapers or magazines but featuring characters from movies like Agent Carter, Lord Flashheart, and Ferris Bueller

My latest AI marketing-on-mobile in an airport lounge delight whilst en route to #Slush2024
Showing tall town houses in pastel blue, yellow and mauve colours with a snowy street running between the middle, this image also has the Ansible PR & Comms speech bubble logo, and a tiny picture of Tracey's head. The AI has tried to create a banner for Slush the conference but it reads more like SLLSH
