Davy Jones and Micky Dolenz were great but, for me, these two were crucial to the success of the Monkees.

Long, languid yellow rabbit with serene expression and curtain, soft pencil drawing Monkey with curious anatomy, flowy but bold strange lines Bastion Booger. A husky endearingly disgusting mid-nineties wrestler of the ‘terrible’ era Ox Baker happy on the Price is Right, a large white man with a large black moustache who looks slightly like a genie but a nice genie

Last Christmas I gave you my heart…
A photo of some old fashioned weighing scales. There is a human heart in the tray. I had to change the position of the pointer to reflect the weight of a human heart. Caption, between musical notes, ‘But the very next day…’

Somewhere in a Roman brickyard, around 1800 years ago, a fresh tile was drying ahead of firing - until a dog trotted straight across it.
Centuries later, the tile has made it into a museum: not because of an emperor, but thanks to one dog who accidentally walked his way into history.🧵1/2
