Thoughts, thank you's, hello's and wants.....

Gosh what a title!

First Thanks to all those that left lovely comments about my brooches and paintings in the last post. I think I may try and set up another link to something to do with my paintings, you never know do you? I am honoured that people who are clearly talented in their own right say they like my paintings. A true compliment.

The Hello is to some new followers I have. Some I can't trace a link back to any blog so if you have just started to follow my blog, thank you and please email me your blog address if you have one. Also I have had a few comments from people that also don't have blogs. Thank you to you too for your lovely comments about my everyday ramblings!

Now I so Want to go and see two films just out.

Bright Star about the love affair between John Keats and Fanny Brawne.

and for something completely different.....

I read an article about the new film Fantastic Mr Fox.

It looks like it's going to be a good film, just need to find some children to drag along....

I have to say I was really interested to read about how they made the film using models and slow motion animation sometimes making only 6 seconds of film in two days!


There is attention to detail with Mr Fox aging and getting grey hairs as the film progresses. His suit is a 'tight fitting corduroy suit made from one of Wes Anderson's old suits' and 'the stripy jumper worn by rat was knitted-but first the team had to whittle tiny knitting needles'
