a sunny weekend with my camera glued in my hand

when we took the thames path east

A very sunny yet numbingly cold February weekend in the Smoke, which was spent mostly outside and, for some reason, mostly by the river - at different ends of London. A trip along the Thames Path east from Tower Bridge with J-Dig on the Saturday, where I walked through parts of London I've never before ventured to and froze my ears, nose and fingers off in the process; Sunday, walking back from Richmond along the river, where everything was bathed in the golden tint of the late afternoon sun. I love winter when it's like this (if perhaps preferring it marginally warmer, as before...)

daytrip

windsor castle

Today was so nice we decided to escape London. We were planning on going to Oxford but faffed around too much at home beforehand so didn't leave ourselves enough time to get there and back before birthday drinks in the evening, so we stayed a little closer to home and went to Windsor for a wander in the ridiculously warm (for early February) sunshine. I heart castles.

inky hands

Life as I currently know it is so boring and tedious (christ do I hate job hunting) that it drove me to actually create a short comic, instead of just kind of scribbling down doodles and ideas as usual. I managed to get an inordinate amount of ink on my hands whilst inking it (because I'm a big spaz). It's pretty silly and retarded... but it was fun. I'm hoping this creative kick will continue and not just be a one-hit wonder. Here are the first few panels. The rest of the two page comic is up online somewhere (if you can find it, mwahahah)...

up against the mini bar...

So maybe it's a bit odd to repost on my blog from the group blog I'm part of but this is waaaayyy too good not to: Sarah Silverman and Matt Damon.
