Eric is the Cat of a Cartoonist, and this role life has given him, he takes very seriously

Spending his evenings enjoying the musical cartoons of the brilliant Gerard Hoffnung

Unfortunately, as he doesn't have opposable thumbs, we have to employ page-turners

As Robin Williams one remarked about The Goon Show, "Madness, Pure Madness", I have said this many times about our vaudevillian, Eric.

So, to celebrate the fact that #TheGoonShow is 75 years old this year, I sitting down, with a bowl of custard, and reading the Scripts to Eric

Ornithology that is not Nonsensical, also known as Birds, tries to ignore its more freaky, flamboyant cousins.

Turning its beak away when it encounters a #NonsenseBird, is a common occurrence.

As is nature's way, it is taking its sweet time providing the correct colour palette, traditional for #FlowerPowerFriday, where I mix some #WeirdNotWonderful #EnglishAbsurdity, with some floral beauty.

But I still have some 2025 pics, that I didn't use.

Eric is obsessed with the Book I am Currently Reading, and there is a strange man in front of our fireplace pointing at something I am unable to see.

Meanwhile I am still trying to read, Bob Mortimer's latest book, The Long Shoe.

Much to Eric's delight, I am in the mood for #SingingSongsToCats...

Some Joni Mitchell I think...

A postbox in Mullingar.

A colourful individual trying to offset the dreich, grey foreboding ambience.

That's right, it's my first #postboxsaturday of 2026.

A gentle soul revolution, that's what the world needs

Perfect to lead it, is those #weirdnotwonderful creatures and a return to #FlowerPowerFriday, a combination of nature's beauty and some #EnglishAbsurdity

Although a Friday only revolution may not get far

My first post on this platform, since I left Mr. Musk's with it's unpleasant, deviant ways.
I should introduce myself, but I'm not going to.
I've always been fascinated by Stop-motion animation, and I began today by reading a book co-written by famed animator, Ray Harryhausen.
