After pulling the Shallots and finding that the bulbs didn't really form or rotted, I decided to pull out more Elephant Garlics to feel better. I feel better.
Here's the first harvest. One more plant remains in the garden.

I travelled without my tripod and took instead my new gorillapod zoom which I attached to a garden fork for this shot !

I have this eclectic background and know enough to be dangerous about many things. And I have this compelling drive to share with everyone the stuff that swirls through my head, whether the world wants it or not.

I stopped over so we could film the following day. Here we had to redo a scene we'd shot previously, this is the new 'fork' zombie.

I'd read about this little gem in a magazine a few months back (PP possibly).

The origainal fork belonged to my aunt but the stave got broken so a friend asked what my favourite verse was in the bible (that's a hard question) and I gave them Matthew 11:28-30, I had no idea until it came back they had carved part of the verse and my name in the new stave.
