The temp has dropped a couple of degrees, so it's autumn now. Bring it all on.

I was lucky enough for another birthday treat of a Lego night with pals! I made a wee spaceship and then everyone made another ship too. I've drawn up the whole squadron.

It’s funny, not too heavy, and worth a watch. Redford was a great leading man and I’m always thankful for Bishop and the gang. 4/4

I could talk about the movie (and its development) A LOT, including how a young teenage me took an early interest, but I ended up just doodling bits from the movie. 3/4

It holds up well as a little tech mystery and the cast are all so good. I heard it was a fun set. ( @catsinook.bsky.social has a page here) 2/4

#robertredford was in one of my all time most comforting movies ‘SNEAKERS’. Like him, it had a lot of charm, and I made myself a fanzine about it a little while ago. 1/4

I had a lovely birthday weekend which included pizza with pals, Chunking Express at the cinema, a comedy show, gifts, and a homemade cake from my always wonderful partner @catsinook.bsky.social

A series of images from my birthday including lunch at a pizza place.

A lovely pile of gifts including Lego, DND minis, and some games.

LACE for #swordtember prompt fifteen and when I thought of lace and weddings I ended up with an obvious reference…

I’m a day late for prompt thirteen of #swordtember which was BLOOM. I was busy with birthday celebrations, which is a bloom of a sort, right?

Day eight of #swordtember is CANINE. I realise that I’m generally shooting for “what’s my third take on interpreting the prompt?” most days and it makes for a fun satisfying stretch.

If you ran a poll on which is which I reckon you'd get a 50/50 split. Lovely seeing you two today!

A sword inspired by a brilliant DM and comedian. They love chronomancy and #swordtember prompt seven is CLOCK.
