"I'd rather party in hell with Ian Curtis listening to the Velvets than John Denver in heaven listening to Cliff Richard anyway".
A postscript to Jackie's Show and Tell - I bought the second copy of the most intricately cut of the 3 puzzles, The Old Man in a Tree (who was bored by a bee).
It's hard to find hand-cut modern puzzles on eBay, because thousands of modern puzzles are auctioned every week. It's a great pity that these masterpieces, which Genest sold for charity, were spotted by so few people. But I was thrilled to get this one.
This, of course, is the Figure-it-Out central section; as with all 3 puzzles, there is also a large and challenging white background.

Dexter: Someone please humour me and tell me why I should be smiling!
Suzuki: Well, you're still alive aren't you?
Dexter: Barely....
Mother Nature decided to play a practical joke by tricking us that it was already Spring. Last night around midnight, the snow started to fall upon Robot City and here you can see Suzuki and Dexter playing outside in the white stuff.
As you can tell Suzuki was amused by the snow as he knows that although it is March, there will ALWAYS be a chance of snow up unitil May/June. It's just the way things are in Robot City. But for Dexter, after frolicking in the grass and beautiful weather, he is definitely not pleased.
Soldier is an in-house monthly magazine produced and published by the MOD. It was founded in March 1945, in Brussels, a morale boosting idea of Field Marshal Montgomery. Until 1997, it was a fortnightly publication.
Wash - Rinse - Sterilise; in the field and in cookhouses where mugs and "gobbling rods" were not supplied, there would be three basins/dixies etc.' for washing your cutlery.
This book of cartoons from the magazine, was produced in 1960 when National Service was still in force.
I was told David can sometimes be a little sensitive about having his picture taken in his wheelchair. So I was a bit surprised when he agreed to this shot, and even more surprised when he decided to take the piss and blow kisses at me as I tried to shoot.
An anthology of cartoons culled from the media on the subject of "The Great Drought of 1976".
Dennis Howell was appointed "Minister for Drought"; I suppose today he would be a "Drought Czar".

Out of context...
Really struggle with this week's topic, I couldn't find what I wanted :(
Not the most inspirational advertising slogan, but hey, how else to sell the brand?
It did however inspire lots of black humour around the office.
My answer would be "suckle fools and chronicle small beer" (Othello - Iago to Desdemona.) Famously once rendered in modern American English as "to raise babies and clip coupons". Think I'll stick to the Bard!
a selection from a window display - that had been entered into the drum's chip shop awards" (no i hadn't head of it either).

Lord Muruga seems to be sharing the joke the priests seem to be enjoying
Thaipusam in Malaysia is a festival of 3 days for most but for the Kavadi bearers the journey starts 1 month earlier. Following a strict vegetarian fast, constant prayers, sleeping on floors and abstaining from any entertainment the journey ends at their destined temple.
The Silver chariot leaves the Maha Mariamman temple at Jalan Bandar, Kuala Lumpur in the wee hours of the eve of Thaipusam and travels 15 km with thousands of devotees to the centre of the festival at Batu Caves. The festival begins at the temple as soon as the festival flag is hoisted in the evening of the eve. Nearly a million people turn up for the festival in the next 36 hours together with the hundreds of kavadis and thousands of milk bearers who throng the cave temples accompanied by the sounds of drums.
The next day the Chariot makes its way back into the city to mark the end of Thaipusam.
