I fancy a Mathmos lava lamp, either green oil with blue water, or something a bit warmer with violet or purple....

As usual my mum doesn't know what she wants and neither does my dad (although my mum did suggest getting him some Baileys). My boyfriend hasn't decided on anything yet, so it looks like I'm going to have to do some last minute shopping

Wow! What an amazing building, it looks like a temple or church

I thought it was modern architecture at first glance, but the fact that it used to be a postal office, and it's over a century old...

They certainly don't make 'em like they used to

This is something I've discovered about myself lately and I'm now trying to tackle, and hopefully start to dismantle.

I did a fuck up the other day and may have unintentionally offended someone (a combination of mental and sensory overload led to a louder than expected verbal outburst of frustration)

I've put out an apology and have asked for an accommodation to help with the sensory aspect, but I'm still churning inside and over thinking because of my shitty social and communication 'skills'

Thanks for your comment, it sums things up 'perfectly' 🤣

Thanks for the info, I probably need to do a post explaining all the different types of printmaking.... and/or do a quick description like yours when I post something a bit 'different' 👍

Yes that could be it! I just remember it being amazing and futuristic pressing the buttons and zipping through hyperspace

I can also remember being very disappointed that the Atari packaging art never reflected the game graphics lol (I was young)

Me and my brother got one of these as a joint Xmas present, it came with a free game- Combat!

I loved playing Space Invaders, Frogger, Empire Strikes Back, there was also a space game where you had to input coordinates into a gadget to then hyperspace jump and fight other space ships, can't remember what it was called but it was great!

It's still at my parents house in the original box...

It's a smörgåsbord of critters...

His brain is like an elephant’s, while his stomach is like a horse’s. The skeleton, however, is akin to a rhinoceros’s. The hind feet are entirely different from these animals, more like a tapir’s. Peeking into the mouth of a hyrax, you may recognize similar upper incisors from rodents’ teeth, upper cheek teeth from rhinos, and lower cheek teeth like a hippo’s. They even have two teeth in their upper jaw that resemble elephant tusks. The overall anatomy of a hyrax, however, is like that of elephants or horses. source

I think they're silently judging me for wearing their piss as a perfume

Well it is in Port Talbot, which is not a huge distance from Cardiff.........maybe there's a David Tennant nearby for someone to take home?

Like WoW type of pieces? A friend of mine used to collect and paint up pieces for table campaigns (not sure of the right terminology) they looked really good
