Marvellous!! - we raised £25 for the Pets In Need home during last Sunday's Fun Day event. Many thanks to Mrs Emily Hunterstone who was such a 'sport'! (as always)

Rubber Ducky
Quite simply one the best Bert&Ernie moments ever. Although featuring Ernie for 99% of the piece, Bert still manages to steal the show with his expression outside the door near the end.

Blatant advertising
Yes it's true : I have a new website for my paltry business ventures.
If you are casting about for someway of passing a dreary five minutes (make that 2), then why not skip across to:
http://www.nikchinook.com
and push up my profile. Actually, I can think of many reasons why not to.
And as for pushing up my profile - Crikey, what would the vicar say?

Moist but willing
wet wet wet
Buggerham village has been somewhat awash this week. It began with torrential rain and ended with my washing machine 'letting go' big style.
On the upside Mrs Peach let me take her roughly on the upstairs landing and was suitably moist too.
This was a surprise treat but the rough texture of the seagrass natural flooring has left an unattractive griddle-like pattern across my knees.
I haven't yet seen what it might have left upon cecily's deriere.
This though an alarming 'washboard' sound whenever she pulls her jeans on.

fusty Chinook
It seems that the smug 'to-clever-for-his-own-boots' Bohemian artist Mr Moon is making our quiet little village the setting for his book: Potters Fields, as featured in the NanoWrim.org competition.
Mr Hardy, Florence Clampit and Hetty Knob are going to see the vicar about it.
They have asked for my support, but i told them it was in a cupboard somewhere and probably rather fusty by now.
I fear I've been ostracised

New Neighbour
Excitement in Buggerham this week as A&C from next door have moved and a new lady has arrived. The word on the street is 'older lady, single (divorced, seperated or recently bereaved?) and has a lady cat.
Hmmm - our fiesty Tom cat 'Scabies' will have something to say about that!

Animation excess
Finally, the first post of the New Year.
Those of you who know me will be aware of why I've been busy - but for those of you who don't:
The past couple of months have been dominated by my working on an animation for the C4D Cafe competition : "WARP10"
C4D is a 3D illustration software package that creates stills or animations. You can see an example below on the 'Computer Bug' post.
The competition was to create a short film on the theme of 'Speed'
I've made a 2minute piece called 'The Far Side' about a Fly called Gary who wants to get to the far side of the road to feast on a dumped chinese take-away meal on the pavement. Unfortunately, between him and the bag is a road being burned up by boy-racer Chavs.
Anyway, if you wanna see it, swing by:
http://www.c4dcafe.com/ipb/index.php?showtopic=17601
and look for Chinook.
It's been a steep learning curve. Two months ago my C4D skills just about ran to making a basic spinning logo. I'd made a model of an simple exhibition stand for a client, which in retrospect was basic to say the least. And my animation skills had run to making the camera track round from left to right over three seconds. :(
Now - looking at what I've got done for my entry I can hardly believe I've come on so far. Really proud of my little hero Gary.
