About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

R is for Rubber Raiders Run Rampant

Seen briefly earlier in the year, this is the Paperchase carded pirate rubber/pencil-eraser I got in a new-year's sale while visiting PW's editor earlier in the year.

The monkey is in three pieces (hung from the yard-arm by the Bwreaksiteers of the North East, you know? But if he was waving a bloody-great knife around - he deserved it; Vichy swine-monkey pirate!), the parrot and the pirate four-chunks each, while the treasure chest is the real eraser; a solid lump!
