Fabulous noodle transmogrifications 8-)

I was reminded of the Terminator II hunter, but then remembered hiding behind the settee when The Clay Men came out of the clay walls and melted back into them in a very early Dr Who. Spooky.

And Summer dries the straw.
Autumn gathers in the harvest
And Winter shuts the door.

Almost went to one many years ago, I thought he'd been banned, but it looks as if he's actually got a permanent exhibition in London, in what used to be the Ripley's "Believe it or not" exhibition space (I visited that back in the day, 35 years ago maybe!).

He's been on telly a fair bit, he comes across as an exceptionally creepy individual.

We saw an exhibition in New York about 15 years ago, it was interesting but also upsetting when you reminded yourself that this was real people not models.

Their sneaky algorithms customise the video list to match your viewing habit profile that they've harvested from your data - my "up next" videos following that were James O'Brien LBC political rants...

my 'up next' was a video, by the same poster, of crufts 2020 with a dog headed man taking a miniature man for a walk across the show ground - but i wasn't logged in to facebook so that may make a difference ( as i rarely log into facebook i'm not sure what big brother would play for me anyway).

I wondered if I'd set my calendar wrong, having to put the heating on in June and with only 9 days until the longest day here.

We want sunny days and balmy nights! Rainbow, can you get a butterfly to flap its wings and send us some warmth pretty please?

It's rainy and windy but a bit warmer today so mustn't grumble ;)

My 'up next' was a horrible thing which seemed to be a lot of uneducated people all saying they'd support Trump through thick and thin :evil:. I can only think I have watched enough of that sort of thing in fascination and horror for the algorithm to think I support him!!

There have been other Junes when it has been cold and nasty. One year in the late 90s I didn't emerge from wearing thick black tights until later than this. We did have quite a long spell of warm, dry weather during lockdown. Now we pay!
