An early Friday dancers as we still have power atm 😬 Big hugs as desired to everyone else also in the path of #stormEowyn & hope the disruption is minimal.

And to all, whether in the path of a storm or not, hope you have a good weekend if you possibly can.

The dancers are visiting the windiest place I've ever been outside of a storm. That headland - I've never walked so slowly in one direction & so fast in the other 🌬️ Take care all x

Someone tooted, several hours ago, a lovely photo with a caption something like
The moon is waning.
Given my toot is pure silliness, i chose to not degrade their thread, but... my immediate transposition in my mind's eye was to wonder if therefore
Wayne is mooning.
As you were, nothing to see here, these are not the drones, etc.

Some silliness, because silly is important.

A square close up photo of a rusty old nut and bolt type thing (I'm not much of a DIY-er but I think that's what it is, it was taken in a Maritime Museum so was presumably once held bits of a ship together). The main body is hexagonal in two parts, I have presented the split between the two parts as a mouth, added teeth and a lolling out tongue, and added eyes above. The bolt sticks out through the top, like an odd little round hat with lines running round it.

This (or something along these lines) has been stuck in my head since reading all the rubbish about how the US businesses are pre-caving in to their new orange overlord and running away like the pathetic creatures they are from any semblance of decency. Needed to shake it out on to the screen to move on to something nicer.

#DEI #politics #nonsense
Two panel pop art style Lichtensteinesque comic strip (not particularly accomplished, this sort of thing is not a strong area for me). Left hand side is a close up a dotty face, a white man with brown hair looking slightly perturbed. There is a thought bubble leading to the man, reading "But what if people different to me are happy and successful too?!". The right hand panel shows an explosion in the bottom left, a huge bright yellow spiky DEI in the centre, and a man running away in the top right hand corner.

It's Friday - WOO! I have achieved absolutely NOTHING today, but fortunately had nothing I particularly needed to achieve so hooray (and phew) for that.

As ever, hope you have a lovely weekend if you possibly can.

Had a bit of free time this morning so decided to play around a bit. Then I read the news. Then I played a bit more.

#MyfanwyAndFriend #nonsense #drawing #bukBukBawwwwk
A square framed illustration, a poor pastiche of a Lichtenstein style comic book pop-art; bold colours and dotty. In the bottom left is an explosion, with rays bursting out from it. Bottom right is friend, a simple figure looking to the viewer. Centre frame is a drawing of Myfanwy, a teal and cream knitted chicken, with a speech bubble from her beak saying: "BUK BUK BUK BUK BA-GAWK! BOK! BUK BUK BAWWWWWK!" Myfanwy speaks for all of us. Thank you Myfanwy.

Found an icehog on the frozen pond

#sillyScribbles #nonsense #photography
A photo of the surface of a frozen pond with a big chunk of ice in the centre. The ice has been warped slightly so the left hand side is slightly spiky, and the right goes to a point. Eyes, mouth and nose have been drawn on the point so it resembles some kind of hedgehog shaped ice creature. It is quite cute. Cold, but cute.

It's Friday! Woo! The dancers and I hope you have a bright and cheerful weekend if you possibly can.

Went for a walk. Found an icy bubble pond. It was a good pond.

#sillyScribbles #nonsense
A photo of the surface of a dark icy pond, with small white ice bubbles clustered around one larger pear shaped white ice patch. It has a sweet smiling face drawn on, and arms resting on its belly.

A new era of lies: Mark Zuckerberg has just ushered in an extinction-level event for truth on social media

Not really. It has been there for many years, Musk got in first anyway.Let us face it, social media (whisper it Mastodon included) are only or should be only, a means of allowing people to talk, exchange (in my experience) dug and mountain photos with the odd joke. The mistake was in treatubg them as 'news'.

Good evening.

Today I finished the first stage of an Important But Dull report AND finally realised that the photo of this leaf was the wrong way round, and that's why it wasn't looking right.

So there's that.

Everything else seems a bit grim. Running away to play a game and ignore that for the moment.

#sillyScribbles #photography #nonsense
A photo of a bright red-orange leaf with a yellow stripe diagonally across it. It is wedged into the branches of a heather plant with small dusky pink flowers and dark leaves, against a blurred dark green backdrop. I have drawn two eyes on the right hand side of the leaf, and curved the stem slightly underneath them to turn it into a smile. It looks a bit fishy (as in like a fish, rather than suspicious). A gold fish no less. The leaf really is a spectacularly bright one.

The first Friday of 2025. Time to stomp on the old year, ring in the new, and be there to support each other as needed. As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can.

- Yaay! It's Friday!
- What? Are you sure?
- Yep, I checked.
- Really?
- Yep. Checked a few times.
- Oh. OK. Yaay!

As ever have a good weekend if you possibly can 😁

With apologies for a bit of a half-hearted performance from some of the dancers here, obviously they didn't all get the "It's Friday" memo.

The Myfanwy And Friend Advent Calendar - Day Six

Twinned with the Friday Sparkly Dancers for an end of week spectacular at the Christmas market. No prizes for spotting which one went out partying & missed the memo...

Myfanwy Explored, Explained, Exploded (2024)

I wasn't sure about this given that I'd already done The Physical Impossibility of Wool in the Mind of a Knitted Chicken. It felt a bit derivative. Then I decided if Hirst can get away with it so can I.

#MyfanwyAndFriend #nonsense
A pastiche of Hirst's Myth Explored, Explained, Exploded (1993), which had a shark split into three containers. The three containers here contain a large knitted chicken against a white wall and plain green tinged wooden floor. A simple drawn figure sits on a bench and contemplates the work.

Their lack of jointed limbs does limit their ability to do certain dance moves, but they'll give it a good old bendy bash 😁

As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can.

Emergency call out to knitters everywhere. It's getting cold, and we need to protect our mushie friends from the morning frost. To action!

#sillyScribbles #photography #fungi #knitting #nonsense
A photo of two light brown mushrooms growing in a mossy frosty lawn. They are both wearing knitted hats (the one on the left a white one with a bobble, the one on the right a blue and white stripey one). They both have faces drawn on and are smiling. Well, they would, wouldn't they? Someone has knitted them lovely hats!

BEHOLD MY FROSTY KNOB

#sillyScribbles #googlyEyes #nonsense
A photo of the metal knob of a park bench with a cross pattern on it covered in spiky frost against a blurred background of frosty grass. I have added large googly eyes and emphasised a pattern in the frost slightly to create a down-turned grumpy mouth.

In a moment this cloud is going to open their eyes & be really embarrassed about how late they've slept in.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #Scotland #nonsense
A photo of a partially wooded mountain. Nestled near the bottom, behind some evergreen trees, is a low single cloud. Above it the hillside becomes treeless, lit by a low autumn sun. There is a hint of grey sky above. The cloud has a yawning face drawn on, arm reaching up to cover their month, eyes still closed.

Behold the field in which the fluff monsters grow!

#sillyScribbles #photography #nonsense
A photo of a field of cotton grass (I think) with tall green stems and balls of pale fluff on top against a dark background. Some are in focus, others blurred. They each have a smiling face drawn on.

OM NOM NOM

(that is all)

#sillyScribbles #snow #photography #nonsense
A photo focussed on a dollop of snow on a catoneaster shrub with dark green leaves, bright red berries, and various smatterings of snow (mainly blurred in the background). The dollop in focus loops a little like a person hunched over a leaf, with snow arms wrapped holding on to it. I have added eyes and teeth, so they are chomping down on the leaf they are holding.

I am very lucky, & usually like my work, but today I have had to to THE MOST BORING bit of work EVER. I have just finished it, & to celebrate the Friday Dancers are showing their rebellious side.

As ever, have a good weekend if you possibly can

Days of the week - an explanation via the medium of rocks

#sillyScribbles #rocks #nonsense
A photo of a pile of three rocks. The bottom one is quite flat, and has a grumpy face drawn on. It is labelled Monday. The middle is much larger, with a slightly smiling face drawn on. It is labelled Wednesday. The top one is much smaller, and has a very happy face drawn on. It is labelled Friday. All nonsense of course.

Thought I saw a cloud using a TV aerial as a microphone. I didn't obviously, but I took a photo anyway. It's been a long day.

#sillyScribbles #cloudCreatures #nonsense
A photo of a white fluffy cloud against a blue sky. The roof of a house sits as a silhouette along the bottom of the photo, with a TV aerial sticking directly up, with the aerial bit pointing left. I have drawn a face and arms on the cloud, so it's mouth is open by the end of the aerial, and it is holding on to it with both hands. Above I have scribbled "tra la la laaa" in slightly cloudy writing, because sometimes I feel like I need to provide some additional evidence of my cloud creatures, and this is probably pushing it quite a bit.
#sillyscribbles #nonsense #cloudcreatures

I don't know what they saw, but based on their hair it was SHOCKING one way or another

#sillyScribbles #photography #nonsense
A photo of a damp, small, fluffy white feather standing upright in a mess of grass. Most of the grass, both foreground and background, is blurred. The white feather is still fluffy on the bottom half, and there are small drops of water on the fluff. The top is flat and damper, and it is sticking up in points, like a punky hairdo. It has upturned armed and a shocked expression drawn on.

OK, that's the WIP folder sorted out. Had to save this one too, because it is either a ludicrously sweet & wholesome friendship, or it is a Love That Dare Not Speak Its Name, & either way I felt wrong deleting it.

#sillyScribbles #cute #nonsense
A photo of a small mushroom in a green lawn, with a tight focus so both the foreground and background grass is blurred. It has a sweet face drawn on its rounded cap and arms from its stem. A simple drawn figure stands next to it, looking at its big old face, and holding its hand. Dawwwwww.
#cute #sillyscribbles #nonsense

I think I've mentioned before how sometimes pictures can sit in my 'in progress' folder for longer than is reasonable. Ones I'm just not sure about. Eventually I get to the point where I'm fed up of seeing the files, so it's either delete or post. Today I decided POST! 😆

#sillyScribbles #birds #silly #nonsense
A photo of a bird ornament on a black surface, against a dark backdrop. It is facing the camera, and is made of a red velvety fabric, with a diamond encrusted gold crown and a sequined breast. It's legs are golden and glittery. It is quite something. I have added five simple drawn figures, bowed down in its glory, facing it from the left and right. In the top left is scribbled the words "I, for one, welcome our new shiny overlords".

WHOOPS!

#sillyScribbles #rocks #silly #nonsense
A square photo of a large rock balanced on a point on top of a large flat boulder. On top of the balancing rock are 4 more smaller rocks piled up. Behind them the blurred landscape of a grey day on the Isle of Skye. The rocks all have faces and arms added, with surprised expressions, as if the balancing rock is mid-topple. No rocks were harmed during the making of the picture.

I call this piece "Hang on, is it Monday tomorrow?"

#sillyScribbles #fungi #silly #nonsense
A photo of two mushrooms in a mossy lawn. The one in the foreground is in focus and has a sweet smile drawn on and arms resting neatly on its front. The other is almost directly behind, very similar in size and colour but out of focus. Its arms are stretched out and has a toothy open mouth. It's not terrifically scary, but certainly isn't looking sweet like the front one.

I'm not gonna lie, this went horribly wrong, but sometimes you just have to go with what you've got and hope to make it better next time. A painfully apt end to the week.

Have as good a weekend as you possibly can. Hugs and bad dancing to all who need them.

Sending good vibes and fluff to all who need it today

#sillyScribbles #photography #cute #nonsense
A photo of a white fluffy feather in a green lawn, taken from low down. The feather is in focus, while the grass is largely blurred in behind and in the foreground. The feather has a happy face and arms drawn on. It is waving at you.

This time of year I only wander onto the lawn when I'm filling up the bird feeders, but every time I find a new wee friend.

#sillyScribbles #photography #fungi #silly #cute #nonsense
A photo of a grassy lawn, taken from very low down, with most of the grass in soft focus. In the centre is a single very, very tiny mushroom. It is a light orange colour, with a tall thin pale stem. I have added a smiling face, and arms, so it is holding on to the blade of grass next to it.

A twee but heartfelt leafy hug to all who want it on a Monday morning in a week that might be A WEEK.

#sillyScribbles #photography #autumn #silly #cute #nonsense
A photo of two autumnal leaves, grown from a single stem, dappled in sunlight. The one on the left is in focus, the one on the right, slightly further away, is slightly blurred. In the background are more leaves, very blurred, with hints of sky beyond. The two leaves have faces drawn on, with cute wee smiles, and they each have one arm around the other.
