Today is Vince Clotho's "Got you" day. Its been a fun year with this one and I suspect he is the reincarnation of a Tasmanian devil. Brilliant little cat though and much loved.

Just getting myself sorted before driving off when a car came up behind me with headlights on and illuminated what you see here. It gave me a right fright for a second as I thought I was being observed by silent masked weirdos.
It turned out to be the head protectors on the seats. 😂

In 1583, 442 years ago to this day, Doctor John Dee was traveling across Europe. He had just reached Hamburg in the late evening. I would imagine that he along with Kelley, Jane and Joanna probably went for a curry and sample the fine European beers after he arrived after such a long journey.

Wishing everyone a Spectral Samhain and a Haunted Halloween. If you want ghosts, may you get ghosts, if you dont may they leave you in peace. I want ghosts, lots and lots of ghosts; all the ghosts in fact.

If anything has been hard to photo, my lampshade has been Hope these capture its nature as a mix between organic forms and eldritch science. I think it captures the right amount of bonkers spookiness and this is just a prototype really for me to unleash my imagination.

As always, bunnies up to no good. Cant be trusted as to what they want to do (and they do not want to live deliciously). Sometimes I think they are more deadly that fairies.

Quite happy with the bao buns I made for dinner last night. These are packed with Mongolian lamb, chilli pickled carrots and cucumber and topped with coriander.

I didnt take many photos today because I was busy but made some (hopefully) fine pieces. The orange pieces at the top in the first picture are actually green and yellow and are a bauble and a witchbottle for a friend.

So, Sauron is basically a cat. It explains a great deal. I miss XinXim so much, but basically the same energy here.

Decided to stop waiting for the one ring to pass to me and slipped into Mordor to make my own whilst Sauron is on his holidays.
Once it is cool the lettering and calibration can begin.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
