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.

M is for Meet Stiggy the Coo!

Mentioning both Highland Cattle and the Spring fair, as I was in the previous post, how about a bit of high-art! This sculpture was just on display, and while not promoting a business, one assumes the Artist - Meg Hawkins - was hoping for a corporate commission or two, from all the rep's wandering around?
 
He's actually Stiggy the Half-Coo, as his hindquarters are hidden in the boxed RSJ, and I forgot to take a close-up of his story, well, I didn't actually notice it until I was cropping the image, five minutes ago! But, he's figural, and I thought he was rather nice!
