You know it's funny...

He could not care less. He's just like "Oh, I'm wearing a jacket? Okay. Oh and a hat? Cool. Can I go back to sleep now?"

Camera!

I picked this up at a boot sale months ago, probably around July/August. It was £5 for the camera & manual, and the flash. I ordered some film a few days ago, and bought some new batteries for the flash, and to my surprise it all works perfectly. Well, I say that, but I suppose I won't find out for sure until I get the film developed. I always get really worried shooting film, in case the settings aren't right and the photos don't come out good. There are only a couple of dials on this camera, and I'm not sure what they do. I'll have to look up a manual as I don't know what happened to the one that came with it. I'll post photos when I've finished the film.

I need a sewing machine.

There are so many things I want to make! I really want to try making my own clothes. I've been helping out at Hereford Apparel a bit since it opened in June, and it's really fun. I'm not good enough with the machines to make whole garments, but there are bits I can do to help when there's a lot of work.
I also really want to make myself a bag, I've found some really awesome fabric online which would be perfect.

For now though, I have some really awesome glass bottles that I collected from the pub I used to work at, and I need to do something with them to justify keeping them for 3 years!
I've been looking through Instructables.com all evening for something to do with them, and I have a few ideas.

Boot lacing...

I really like making my shoes look awesome (more so than they already are) and so I thought this was pretty cool!

Well, this went absolutely awfully.

As with most things I do, I gave up half way through this. I have barely even picked up my camera in the last 6 months, I get tired of carrying it, lens changes, lugging a tripod about, etc. I really want to start getting back in to photography though, it's a productive way to spend my time, and far more fulfilling than spending all night on Tumblr.
Here are a few photos of recent things...

I am feeling very Christmassy now, I've bought all but one present, and everything that I have got is wrapped and hidden under my bed. I bought some ribbons and bows today, so I'll be putting those on the presents tonight.

Week 9. (Early, fuck yeah!)

Making up for failing last week. I may even post another photo tomorrow if my day goes to plan (i.e. if it doesn't rain!)

Week 8. (Failure)

So, there are lots of excuses for my lack of blog this week.
I was out all Sunday, had a cold all week, misplaced my camera under heaps of crap, and when I found it, it was switched on and the battery was flat.
But mainly, I just could not be arsed.
Sorry.
