What’s in the news today? Ukrainian Soldiers, have been officially photographed training in high heels. Maybe it’s a PR Stunt. If so, it’s a good one because everyone’s noticed.

Nerf Guns June 24th, 2021 by Jo Neary

I love sketchbooks and draw every day. This is a little doodled sequence from an A6 one, which I always carry when I’m out and about.   Have you seen ‘Hook’? We quite enjoyed it. I thought the message to make the most of the young years was a good one. Cast were ace too.

Seashore Art School With Fiona Fish Finger September 1st, 2020 by Jo Neary

During lockdown, I was lucky enough to be given the chance to make some little puppet shows for children.

Seashore Art School starred Fiona Fish Finger, the mermaid […]

I Am Trying To Read And Then I Give Up. February 13th, 2020 by Jo Neary

I need to knit a hat with ‘I am reading’ written on it, but at the same time, I don’t want to miss out on the whirlwind doings of a Boy Who Smells Of Strawberry Jam and the Robin that seems to have a life of it’s own, apparently.

How Do I Say Goodbye To You? On The EU and Pitying Boris Johnson. February 6th, 2020 by Jo Neary

(I was reading one of her books and now it’s my nickname. What a boring one. Made me laugh for that very reason) And check out his imaginative way of getting away with a rude gesture. Dix pointes.

Seaside Girl In A Seaside World February 4th, 2020 by Jo Neary

I’m thinking of resurrecting my Dolphin character at some point. But things change. When I did this years ago, no one minded, but they might now because he’s made of plastic and he should really be made of recycled cardboard, bamboo or stainless steel. I guess the answer is never to chuck him in the sea.

No Running, No Heelies, No Gum/Sweets. January 29th, 2020 by Jo Neary

SHOCK SURPRISE, PRIMARY SCHOOL ORGANISES ANOTHER FUNDRAISER.  A disco with hot dogs and squash at the hatch. It’s a tradition. (Hopefully this post has enough commas for everyone, what with the current Missing Oxford Comma debacle on the Brexit Fifty Pee. If anything, there’s too many commas, it’s like I’m trying to overcompensate due to […]
