I don't know if you are interested....

I don't know if you are interested, but there's an Osprey flying above your van!

Parked outside Inverurie's 'home base', Gabi runs in to get some paint n sheeit for Claypots (it's the weekend! we're always at Claypots!) - I'm in the car with Poppy, and look up... there's a massive Osprey, with a fish in its talons! interesting to see the gulls take a wide berth of this amazing bird! I shout over to the two guys in the burger van (and one customer), and they run out of the van and look up... they were amazed too!... I just hope the burger didn't burn...

this isn't a photo of the Osprey, but one from http://www.fs.fed.us

My Poop looked like a...

My Poop looked like a birthday party hat!

I swore never to put up "too embarrassing" quotes from Poppy (If you are reading this at the age of 16+ my sweet, sorry!) - but... this was a doozie. Gabi and I were woken by the dulcit tones of Poppy shouting at us from the toilet... You know, the funny thing was, it did!

If you put that on your thumb....

If you put that on your thumb, it means you'll marry a goblin!

Poppy picked up some plumbing castoff today at Claypots, an old washer or a small bit of pipe, and starts to wear it on her thumbs... beware! beware! "Oh! I don't want to marry a goblin!"... so she swaps it to her pinkie..."oh oh...you'll have to marry a Fairy now!"

I said Hello....

I said Hello, when the bed-monster babies were asleep!

I had a vague recollection at 7.30 this morning that something was touching my feet, as they poked out of the covers... as I become a bit more worldly, I see that Poppy is in the room... so it works out that she was tickling and having a conversation with my feet... (yes, it's a long story, she thinks my toes are bed monster babies... )

Oh! That's the salt...

Oh! That's the salt police coming to get you!

After smashing a salt cellar at Claypots today, on cue, a hollicopter heading to the airport appeared...perfect for some tall story scaremongering. Cruel? perhaps...but fun, watching as Poppy hides behind a tree, moving round slowly as I tell ther they can see her from the left.

Now, no snuffling...

Now, no snuffling on the neck, there's an X on that!

Poppy has a new rule in order to thwart my snuffling attacks... if there's an X on it... NO SNUFFLING! She even does an X with her fingers, whilst frowning, of course.

Everybody say...

Everybody say TEAAAAAAAAA!

Well, after starting the tea themed head gear yesterday, I've been busy making everyone that asked for one a fun head decoration... seems that madness is contagious... or is it just people want to have fun? he he. Tea Cosy was rad, a great weekend, lots of banter, stories, networking, commissions and sales. Superb cultural weekend in Aberdeen, with Freerunning, Skating, Music, Printing, Kite making, crafting a hoy... Well done to Peacock Visual Arts and SMart consultatns for putting on some ace events. More of that please! People of Aberdeen Take not... you don't know how lucky you are.
