Cheeky foxes! There’s a microchip in play, but said cat is adorable, golden, size of a small horse and utterly, utterly stupid. It’s his mystery window of frustration and he butts it with his silly head several times a day

We had builders in for sensible things and this is what happened. Cat stairs. The skirting board inside is on wonky but the builder is coming back β€˜to sort out snags on the cat flap steps’. Yeah ok George, he’s picky about his mortaring #cats

The most beautiful books I have ever had the privilege to work on. A feast for the eyes, a workout for the arms (massive tomes of towering quality), and ever so entertaining. Want to know how THAT album cover was designed? I can guarantee surprises
