I had a most awesome birthday- see here my massive stash of goodies. If you click on the photo you can see what the items are (or what people guess them to be)on flickr- and also some nice pictures of munkies that I saw on my birthday trip to munkieworld....
many thanks to my friends and family for making it such a good one- and especially the all the birthday wishes from my lovely etsy, myspace &flickr pals.... including that particularly ace 'artist & genius' patch from Jane of memake.etsy.com which was a total (and lovely) surprise...the generosity of my friends blows me away- I'm truly glad to know you guys :D

Another 7 things..
humm. .. tagged again I see. Well this just Isn't on! I don't want to reveal ALL my secret...
1) I once performed an experiment that involved shoving smarties up my nieces nose.
I a controled study, we shovel one blue UK smartie and one blue french smartie up my niece's nose. It was dicorved that french smarties are colour safe, whereas UK smarties turn the snot of small girls blue. I attribute the coloursafeness of french smarties to a harder wax coating to prevent melting accidents in the warmer climate of france.
2) Triops are better than seamunkies. I cannot side with the seamunkies as they are not actually munkies at all and lack all of the charcteristics displayed on the packaging. Also, I dispute the fact that they are INSTANT pets. Triops do not hatch instantly either, but they do grow big enough to eat seamunkies. Obviously this is not a fact about me, but it is an important fact to absorb anyway.
3) After failing to speak any german in my GCSE mock exam, I learnt enough in 3 weeks to get an A. After this I forgot all but a few insults and some inane chatter about my cat in a even shorter period of time. One a trip to switzerland I increased my vocabulary to be able to reply to chat-up lines (e.g.in reply to 'Can I buy you a drink?' I can now reply 'no, I want expensive jewellery')
4)I would like the underwater world of triopolis for my triops to live in but no one will ever buy it for me because I am a grown up and should not desire a night club with glow in the dark pebbles for my small crustaceans. BUT I DO.
5)My vision of the world of the future is pretty much a really big version of triopolis. Obiously it wouldn't be full of water and triops, but each city would be covered in a huge biosphere to protect us from the suns rays (which are dangerous in the future) and each city would be connected by a tube which you could get sucked along. And the night clubs would have glow in the dark pebbles, obviously.
6)My hair is very long. I know this, because people tell all the time. Random people come and tell me that I have long hair. Normally I scream and shout 'WTF? It want like that this morning'. If I don't like them I tell them that I can floss my butt with it. I haven't tried, but it gets rid of people at parties (telling them that you do, though I guess actually flossing your butt would get rid of them also, thought as i said, I haven't tried...)
7)I am still crap at finishing things. This has been on draft since my last tagging and I have now been tagged AGAIN, making me feel the whole tagging thing is a bit like painting the forth bridge. ...

Wicker man
The wicker man burning this year was pretty awesome.. here I a picture of him before he got torched.. the run of dry weather meant he was tinder dry and went up nicely.In front of the wickerman is a little sock monster my friend stacey gave me. I call him fink. Isn't he nice. Surprise presents are ace.
I have some blog catching up to do... mainly about the insane stock pile of doll hair I have accumulated. I think I have a problem.. but I would like to thank Little Miss River, MeMake and Shunklies for feeding my new addition. Especially shunklies, who put extra bamboo fibre in the package. I'd not consider the hairy potential of bamboo fibre!!!

studio
I haven't had much time recently for blogging- sadly mr Twiglet, my gecko died yesterday after being sick for a while and I've been working on a few new paintings n stuff. And today is the may bank holiday which means wickerman burning season is here again! yay. Photos later.
Here's a pic of my 'studio' AKA the living room floor. I've had a most packageful week featuring bounties from Memake and greygoat (of etsy fame) who have kindly donated all manner of exciting fabrics for the creation of winged buttmunkies in my underground laboratory
I've also been setting up a couple of stores on mintd and dawanda (for the aussies and europeans respectively). Be sure to befriend me if you use those sites- popularity is everything for the emotionally insecure...
