Happy birthday to Alex.

There was never mush room on the dance floor when the Swede tribute band started playing ‘Dancing Bean’. Happy birthday to Emma at the weekend.
The Night Owls of Wath on Dearne:
‘Oooo whoh-shi Wi’?!’
‘Tint tin tin!’

Happy birthday to Paul yesterday.

Some of the sequences that didn’t make it into the final cut of Wild Isles.

New Colours
For the first time in years, Farrow and Ball have released a new range of colours.
Happy birthday to Ali at the weekend. There are eleven colours in the new range and I couldn’t fit them all on Ali’s card but I couldn’t resist drawing the remaining four who didn’t make it into the final cut.

The Twiglet Zone
Happy birthday to Susan, who always avoids encounters with cheese straws at parties. Come to think of it she always avoids Twiglets too. After this she’s probably going to avoid me at the next party too.
