I’m going to have to face facts and admit I’ll never finish this. I started it to try and get back into the swing of Illustration Friday again, but work got on top of me and well.. usual story. The subject was, of course “Trick or Treat” so I opted for a bit of a Bettie Page-a-like image. Doesn’t look anything like her really, but you get the point.
In other news, I took a trip to see my parents at the weekend, and saw their litter of puppies (see Flickr). I also had the most horrendous rail trip ever, I think. Well, not quite as bad as the time someone masturbated in front of me and a friend in a closed carriage when I was a teenager, but a close second.
Um yeh that’s it. Oh and I’m 40 in two weeks. Shoot me now.
Good to see you back. Great illustration.
Someone tried that masturbation trick on me in my twenties – I was so angry I slapped him round the face, he tried to jump out of the train thinking it was stopping but had to beg me to let him back on as he hung on to the open flapping door as the train carried straight on through the station. I reluctantly allowed him on and then lectured him all the way to our destination station.
Happy birthday for a couple of weeks’ time.
Darn pumpkins are in the way!
*ahem*
Now why would you want to be shot? Turning 40 ain’t nothin’ nowadays. As everyone says, it’s the new 20s. I have friends in their forties and they say it’s been the best time so far. So don’t fret. And that’s an awesome story Julie!
Heh… nice one Julie. Wish I’d had the guts to do that!
My 40th should be interesting at least, we have tickets to see the RSC’s 8 hour version of Nicholas Nickleby over two nights. So I’ll be sat on my butt watching Dickens for four hours on my birthday !
