Matthew and I are planning to have New Year's Eve Party. The theme is "hero and heroine's"...The idea is that you come as your hero/heroine. Well, unless anyone knows how to dress as Quentin Blake then I really am quite stuck for ideas. Besides, I would quite like to come as a heroine seeing as I am a girl...

That seems to be proving slightly more difficult. When I was at school we never learnt about famous, strong-minded women to look up to. Of course, I am not for one minute saying that they don't exist but I just find it very sad how I couldn't think of a women straight away. So, I put a search into google- this article came up:

Isn't it sad how Hollywood portrays superheroine's as large breasted, lap dancing old slappers?

I think I will have to be a suffraget.

Some photos I found today. They were from a photoshoot I agreed to do when I was only 16! Feels like it was someone else...
The photos were for a project based on a rock-band for a CD cover or something (I can't quite remember)..

I'm designing a website for a tree surgeon friend of mine...It's the first time I have done this (for someone else) so I am really excited about it and surprisingly enjoying myself. It's nice to do something different on the computer for a change.

Here's the beginnings of the work- obviously there is going to be a lot more 'foliage' than this! The bird box may be a symbol you can click on for the home page. This is not the full size of the web page but just a preview of the right-hand side:

I think I need to make it look a bit more 'manly' first :-)
