Empire State Building building

The Guardian newspaper has been running a series on modern buildings over the past week, culminating on Saturday with a free model of the Empire State Building to build. Well, this little sick fellow (meaning not well, rather than an angry young chap with psychotic tendencies) thought it a challenge worth taking. I have no feeling in my fingertips thanks to superglue, but I'm pretty pleased with the outcome. A new hobby?


This is my work station


Starting block


2nd Block


Getting there (really fiddly by now)


Almost done - just the lightning rod, this will really test my creativity and dexterousness...


There it is! Finito!


And now for a few glamour shots...


I'm going to send this last picture off to the Guardian. They have a competition for 2 flights to NYC! Fingers crossed!


The workstation afterwards...


The scene from where I'm sitting writing this blog :)

Beautiful Becca, Bump and muesli

Becca has been making muesli for Triona's Lovely Lazy business. For any Londoners get in touch to find out where to buy some :)

tom in tooting

it was great having Tom come and visit last Sunday as part of his whirl-wind world-wide tour. good service at Ascension, a nice pub lunch outside in lovely London autumn weather, a walk in Tooting Common and then tea and cakes back at our place - another perfect Sunday?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!!!
