Handwritten by Tweet

Handwritten is a new concept blog by Clare from Tweet where each post is handwritten by her readers, friends, college ect. Each post will be accompanied with an illustration by Clare herself. It's such a sweet ideas, she is doing it for a uni project so the more people who get involved the better.


If you're interested in submitting an entry email Clare at showmeyourhandwriting@gmail.com and hopefully you will see your blog posts come alive like I did about. Mine was from my recent "Hiking" post, remember?

Any exciting plans for this weekend? We're off to a Parisian themed ball at Blackpool Tower, I can't wait.

Trip To Liverpool With Tweet

Last Thursday me and Clare from Tweet trotted off to Liverpool for a day out. We didn't have much planned other than going to the Tate. I love that place but this time it was better than ever.

The view from inside a mirror sculpture.

The Lobster Telephone by Salvador Dali, wasn't expecting to see this beast!

The view from outside of the mirrored sculpture, with Clare. Denim all round.

The exhibition had some major big hitters, Piet Mondrain included.

A bit of Bridget Riley's Op-Art

Loved this odd yellow egg timer door.

Curly cumberland sausage or dog poo, either way I liked it. 

Silent disco alert! Music on head phones was composed by Wayne Hemingway.

After that we took a load of at the "Liverpool One" deck chairs. It was a lovely day all round, seeing the images again makes me want to go back very soon. We tried to look for somewhere to grab a nice pint but we couldn't decide and ended up buying sweets at the train station.


Has anyone else been to Liverpool or the Tate lately?

Thanks to all the entries for the Ray-Ban Competition up to now, still plenty of times to enter if you already haven't.

The Un-Importance Of Being Slow

This is one of the reasons for slow/very little updates this week. I'm finally getting round to painting the other side of my new room. One wall we be this turquoise colour, I'm very happy with the shade.


The other thing that has been keeping me busy with week is the photo shoot I have been helping out on for Drapers, which the company I work for has arranged. I wasn't directly involved with the shoot but along with Clare from Tweet we're helping out with interviews and "back stage" photographs ect. It was a pretty exciting day.


In other news I recently did an interview for Qype, which is sort of a online directory/community. If you get a minute check it out and let me know your thoughts. It's all about me and my blog.
