If a young man [of fighting age], unable to speak basic english, is able to make the perilous crossing of the Channel in a small boat in mid winter, take your job, romance your girlfriend and buy your dream home from under you, you need to think about upgrading your basic skills.

This time of year can be especially stressful if you’re struggling.
It’s hard to keep it together on regular days so when there’s added stress over the festive period it can be overpowering.
Please take time for your mental health.
Talk if you want.
Your presence is more important than presents.

Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Good morning and welcome to tuna Tuesday
Be proud of yourself for every step you’ve taken.
Not just the big wins, but the quiet choices no one sees.
You’ve grown, you’ve kept going, and you’re stronger than you realise
Give yourself the credit you’ve earned.

Whenever I observe a minutes silence in a relatively public place, there's always some unfortunate soul who comes crashing in, presumable unaware of said silence being observed.
It can surely be only a matter of time until that person is me.

These A5 sized pieces are from my “Impressions” series of pencil drawings and the subjects are pretty iconic!
Treat yourself or consider a gift for a loved one..?

WHAT a corner Eau Rouge used to be! 😍😍
Remembering Louis Rosier, born #OnThisDay in 1905. Pic: ready for the off, Spa, ’55, in his own Écurie Rosier Maserati 250F; he’d finish 9th. He never won an #F1 GP - he was 3rd twice in ’50 - & he died in ’56 of injuries sustained in a shunt at the Montlhéry circuit near Paris.
