nice one, centurion, like it

packed

Illustration Friday this week, well, “packed” – considering we still aren’t completely unpacked it was appropriate. Two weeks in the new place and it’s still hard to remove some objects from their very temporary homes. We only moved a hundred yards, for heaven’s sake, I can see my old apartment from my new one (it’s a bit like seeing Russia from Sarah Palin’s house). The books are all on the shelf (permanent positions undecided), CDs, records, glasses, knives and forks; it’s the stuff marked “misc” (or “pete misc”, to be precise) that is having a hard time settling.

Speaking of new homes: this is my 100th post on my new website (hence the title). That’s 700 posts in all if you include the old blog. Wow. At this rate, I should hit 1000 posts in around… April 2010.

    We have been in the new flat (wot we own, gasp) for four months now. We are still probably at best 50% unpacked. We have no shelving to speak of, in our living room, and so all the books, all the cds and dvds, they remain in boxes. Said boxes are in the ‘guest room’ so it remains entirely un-created. One day we will buy it a bed. And then, yes, there is the box which says “Helen’s Shite”….even I couldn’t bring myself to describe it as anything more lofty.

    Incidentally the sketchbook ain’t going so well. I am failing to just actually sit down and do it…

    Congratulations again! Wow, 700 posts. I love your humor and your amazing drawings.

    Not to gloat, but I have definitely been celebrating the fact that I did NOT move this Fall, for once in the past 4 years! Woohoo. I wish you many years in your new place as moving is a pain in the neck!
