blamebrampton: 15th century woodcut of a hound (Default)

On the first day of Christmas, Blamebrampton gave to me ...

Two blackboards, and a pair of fat chickadees ...





Well, chickens really ...

The chickens come from Oxfam, you can read about them here ...  and here ... while the blackboards are from CARE Australia, however I fear I cocked up my email address as I have still not received an ecard from them. But they go to schools in developing countries and are a great low-tech way of teaching children and adults!

And yes, there will be presents every day between now and Twelfth Night! (It is quite probable that after a few days of this, the definition of 'present' will be stretched to its limits and people will be receiving limericks. At which point, remember that I started well with chickens!)

Phu, back from 1,5 hours of walking through the winter wonderland. So beautiful, but of course I didn't remember to bring my snazzy new camera! Will picspam later if it should turn out that my mobile camera managed any useable pics.

Carbo cats indeed! It doesn't sound as though you've trained them with any thought for profitable illegal fights, how very remiss of you. ;)

But if I can figure out how to make a profit from cuteness, I have the market CORNERED!

Picspam sounds lovely! I wish I was somewhere snowy ...
