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.

H is for high Street Menagerie

The last of the 'Local' posts for Local People! These are actually from August 2021, they didn't do anything this summer - as far as I know, and they haven't done a Christmas one since I covered the giant nut-crackers a few years ago now.

But there have been some replacement Christmas lights, so maybe the budget went there? No blurb; it's really an exercise in clearing stuff from the laptop, and most of the animals are the same as last time, but there are a few changes (penguins and giraffe?), and I didn't get the leaflet, so don't know if this is all of them? But, they are figural and plastic . . . of a sort!
