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.

B is for Blue



A birthday picture for Mim, a while ago now, we went for a walk on the flood-medow at Hungerford, and I kept trying to Photograph the Small Blues that were flitting about, but by the time I'd got focus they'd move off again and I ended up chaseing one for Hundreds of yards, and failed to get a deceny shot of any!

Well, crossing the Golf Course at Welford on the way to Great Shefford the other day I found lots in a wild-flower medow and managed to get both sides, along with a couple of others.
