About Me

My photo
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.

W is for Westair's Wandering Windies Wastrels

This is a bit unfair on Brain who sent me some 'Mosherettes' back in the New Year, and - paraphrasing - I said thanks, but I'll hold them back for the Mosherette page (which is coming-along nicely), only to post these here, but A) it IS International Talk Like a Pirate Day and B) The rest of the Mosherettes are out of storage, so that project will pick-up pace now!

You don't know it but the last three posts were abandoned earlier today, with no blurb and just small notes that I would come back to them tomorrow if you were reading the notes!

As it happens I raced back to finish them and now (6.30 today) have half an hour in-hand, with an hour and a half before this one publishes, but the last four images are so self-explanatory, I don't need blurb - whatever Google, Blogger or TJF's idiot-software might say!

So as a reward to myself for getting them all done in what ended-up being a bit of a last-minute thing, I'll say AaaHaarrrrrrr Jimlaaad and Avast me 'arties! See youse'all next yearrrrrr, yeerrr land-lubbin' scumbuck'erts!
