I'm so sad to hear about Prunella Scales. What is it about this year? They're all going.

Typos are the best when typing quickly aren't they. Just saw I'd typed nunless instead of unless.

They could just replace Tess with AI and no one would notice.

Have Tess and Claudia have been pushed? Time for presenters who know something about dance maybe?

Haha

British Airways ads capture the wonder of travel from the air Created by Uncommon Creative Studio, the campaign sees the brand collaborate with four British photographers as they capture the world through aircraft windows

I'd have liked to have been one of the photographers commissioned on this job.

"Are you free to take photos of these amazing locations?"
Yes, that works for me.

Cartoon. Interior of an IKEA store, with several shoppers in it. An alarm is ringing and a member of staff says "That's the fire alarm. Please assemble outside"

I have another cartoon in the current Private Eye.

Shoppers, assemble!

Really like these colours.

The worst time for a designer is the time immediately after you've seen that a client has downloaded your initial designs.

Me facing the week.

Man in Walthamstow: How are you?
His friend: Good.
Man: I hit you with my rhythm stick.
His friend: I’m sorry?
Man: I don’t know where that came from. I’m tired.

Why does my cat wait until I have made myself a hot drink before she uses her litter tray? And other important questions of the day. I mean, then I have to microwave my drink so it's drinkable after I've sorted it. EVERY. TIME.

I've no problem swapping from one type of project to another. I just make several cups of tea and eat non-stop, suddenly think of new ideas for the project I'm meant to be moving on from and go back to it, then buy something quickly from Vinted and play with the cat maybe..

Then I'm on it.

Like it.

Microsoft, I will never not want to edit a file that I have created thank you.

I think we all have a little bit of Hyacinth Bouquet hidden within us somewhere. RIP Patricia Routledge. A talent that spanned much further than her role in Keeping up Appearances.

I really like the hand drawn fonts. Have bookmarked.

There's nothing like working on a PC that's not quite set up yet. I just had my lunch 1 hour early as I haven't adjusted the clock yet.

Just prepared moving over to a new laptop. It's only taken 5 years of pain with the one I'm on and 1 month of actually having a new laptop and complete avoidance to do it. Move-over is at 4pm. I'll be so fast working from now on, that I could finish up by 3 each day I imagine (I wish!)

I love these. Sounds like it was a tonic for you too.

You have inspired me - shall be doing some art very soon!

A few results from my botanical illustration for mental health workshop this afternoon. So lovely to teach face to face again, especially in such a gorgeous venue in a nature reserve…✒️🌿

Oh that's ok. I'll look out for them. Sounds amazing. I have fennel growing in the garden and I'm thinking of painting some too.

They're enormous up close aren't they.

Being your own boss means I get to choose what I do next on my list. So I am choosing a nice thing over a stressy thing next.

I'm so sorry to hear that you've been through that. Imposter syndrome is hard enough to avoid anyway, even without a breakdown. Best of luck with your workshop today. Sounds like a really lovely workshop. Will you post examples?

Graza’s new campaign shows why packaging isn’t important Graza has launched a new glass bottle edition of its renowned olive oil, and its biggest OOH campaign yet

I love the concept and reason behind the ad, but do I think the line "Good in anything. Now in glass" works? Maybe something like "Silly to bottle it in anything other than glass. So glass it is." What would you suggest?

First on the to-do list today is one from the sideline..

Tea instructions, should you need them.

Choose the largest cup.
Fill right to the brim.
Sip impatiently whilst it's too hot.

This is now a hot beverage account.
