Insanity due to Hamsters
While shopping for VD cards, I found a card which pretty much sums up life at Casa Spinneyhead.
(The card was made by Edward Monkton who has a website here.

Linka
Anyone who was, like me, a bit of a modelling geek in the eighties has probably heard of Linka. Dad bought me a set for Christmas one year. Strangely enough, Linka creates buildings in exactly the right size for his model railway.
I’m reminded of it because of an idea I had yesterday. The back streets around here may not have changed since the thirties or earlier. The phonecam pictures from yesterday were all about getting some photo reference. What I’m thinking of doing is making up latex moulds in which interlinking sections of brick cobbling can be be made in plaster. I can then sell the moulds, either on Spinneyhead or in batches to model shops.
I really need elves to work on all these ideas I get. Failing that, I might get the Plasticine out tomorrow to make up blanks to create the moulds from.
Yetis have all the fun
More penguin bashing. This one’s a little more complicated. I’d recommend holding back your throw for longer than seems right.

Trade
The CafePress interface is having some issues, but I’ve uploaded the images and the Public/Trade thong is now available. The preview images are being temperamental so-
(Not actual size, or the right size relative to each other, just for demonstration purposes.)
The hardest part was probably deciding which colours worked best and which ones were absolute no-nos. I know it’s a bit odd to be considering the “tasteful” colour choice for underwear that alludes to anal sex, but that’s just the way things are.
RIP Spinneyhead
Well, not really, or you wouldn’t be reading this. My account on the old host died an hour or so ago. However IPS tags have been exchanged and, hopefully, spinneyhead.co.uk (and spinneyhead.com) should start pointing at its new home soon.
Playing with Dolls
I’m thinking of getting Bad Clanger some companions, but I’m a little worried that the result might be some kind of poseable orgy.
This lnk only NSFW if you work with four year olds and don’t want to have to explain what Sindy is doing.

More Fatkins
Controversy abounds about Dr. Atkins’ weight at the time of death. Mark Frauenfelder at BoingBoing has found two very different pressure groups trying to score points over the issue. More here.
