A funny thing happened to me on the way to a craft show...

I hadn't been drinking, because I was about to drive to Parham park..just take the dog for a walk first down by the river before the long trip, I thought..I couldn't quite believe my eyes!...is this a new undiscovered species? ..in the words of my BLOG "whats happening!!"



' HELLO! '

Parham Park

A customer, ( Dawn Gracie ) took some photos at Parham park at the weekend of Tilly and myself whilst caricaturing young Oscar.
If we look a bit bedraggled its cos the temperature of the marquees was extremely high!
These are great photos though! Thanks.

Tilly meets her match

This looks fierce, but they were only playing!..HONESTLY!
-see the video below.


NOTE, difference in head size!


Tired now...

VERY tired!

Hey!! whys my head not as big as yours!??


Tilly meets her match...in the form of 'Tinder', a Deerhound lurcher at the Chilterns show.
They played together for ages, and it was amazing hour gentle Tinder was for such a big dog, (but you wouldn't want to get in her way when she is running though,...full pelt, its best to hide behind someone when they are coming at you!)

PARHAM park next!
PARHAM PARK THIS FRI<>

Drippin' wet Matilda Whiplington

Tilly the bedlington x whippet, jumped in the river today, chasing 'Alfie' a huge wolfhound lurcher down at Iford meadows.
...dripping wet she looks more lke a whippet, ...spindle's for legs, velcro for fur and a mouth that hoover's up bottle tops and any other little plastic item she can find! At least her sharp spikey baby teeth have almost gone now. Can't believe she'll be 6 months old this thursday!

Beautiful views at Whitchurch Canonicorum

Just returned from camping in deepest dorset, behind 'the five bells' pub in Whitchurch Canonicorum. We had a great time. (why go abroad when the weathers like this!). Visited some of my favourite places in Lyme Regis and Bridport, and went for some lovely walks, PHEW was it hot! Thanks to Pat, Stacey and Paul for being so hospitalable. Most enjoyable! I'll be back again soon no doubt. And good to meet the locals when watching the england game on Wednesday..hello to 'Millsey' master cheese maker and the other lads and lasses.

This is our little encampment..Not bad! with the whole field to ourselves, peace and tranquility!

As you can see, we had as Johnnie Kingdom would say, ' bootiful voos!'

Young Tilly was loving it with a massive field as her temporary back garden!

This is the view of the church and village.

Not far from where we were camped you can see Lyme regis in the background.

Views from camp site.

On the way into Lyme, (trevor's old place in the background)

The old favourite...'Golden Cap'and here the 'Guildhall' in Lyme Regis.

Night time for Tilly.

'Voo' of my shoos!

Sunset at about 9.45pm!

A walk amongst the daisies...mmm that sounds like an inspiration for a new al hayball painting.

On the way to bridport, via Ryall.

Wimborne folk festival 2010

These are some of the photos Siouxsie took at this weekend of me caricaturing, in front of the 'Allendale centre at Wimborne Folk Festival' which was terrific and was most enjoyable. Hello! to all of you that came along and had a caricature drawn or bought a print, card or tile. Thanx!
