Everybody knows I love tacky souvenirs and have a weakness for royal ones.

Wasted Rita is my Heroine
Wasted Rita is a lovely young lady from Porto (Portugal) who loves punk rock as much as I do. She is also immensely talented and the first of my blog friends that I ever met in person (and the only one so far!). She made a limited edition Descendents t-shirt that I obviously had to [...]

Tidying has its advantages
In an attempt to avoid doing useful things, the other day I spent hours tidying my collage supplies. Look what I found in a bag full of fabric. Isn’t it lovely? It’s a shoebox containing my mum’s old clogs. Thought clogs were used exclusively in Holland? Well no, they’re used in other wet areas [...]
