Design is easy.....?
Always on the look out for design/film/animation/photo taking inspiration - Oh, and travel ideas, (although anything in Japan will always win hands down for me). Currently based in the North East of Scotland.

Went to my old art school today to see the degree show - as you can see,I preferred the outside and some of the more 'interesting' rooms,than the work....good to see my old graffiti legacy still survives from an installation I 'created' while there! Got some new badges today too.
Pimpin' ain't easy apparently. (Or so the booklet that came with the watch claims).
Nice little present for Mr PJ. Will post more once he opens it and gets it working.Hope he can tell the time properly with it.....
Out for my dad's 60th birthday last night. Lovely food,company and wine. Managed to make my poorly stomach behave itself which wasn't difficult quite frankly at the restaurant we went to. Gin and tonic sorbet - yum! Photos show mostly my family and partner, - Note: no my mother is not wearing some strange hair ornament in the third photo. ;) - and the top one shows me (in our slightly odd disjointed mirror)just before we headed out. At this point Mr PJ was at the bottom of the stairs checking his watch and quietly tapping his foot....
:-( in bed feeling sorry for myself.So far I have managed to hold down some tea and toast. Will try some porridge next. Hopefully - ;) I shall return to full moblogging health in the next few days.... I shall bloody have to as it's my dad's big 60th secret bash on saturday!
..faur and fare waur. Went to Dundee on Friday evening to see the Duncan of Jordanstone school of art degree show. We stopped off at this well known service station at Stracathro which has this phrase emblazoned around the top of the building.meaning you could go far and fare worse. It had a huge sign for the toilets,which amused us,and an Aladdins cave of kids toys which kept us entertained while we had mounds of macaroni cheese,chips and a mug of orangeade. I felt like Dave Gorman doing his 'independent America' trip - only it was in the wilds of the North East of Scotland instead. Degree Show was great too. Dundee art school always puts on a good 'un.
...or something. Got my work featured in a web design magazine this month. And I suppose I'll forgive the fact that they got my name completely wrong and there were several typo's, layout and grammatical errors... would have been worse if it was 'graphic designer magazine' I suppose. ;-)
Out for a run, had to have a breather though and take these. Lovely weather last few days.
