The traditional festive three-month countdown to Christmas has, it seems, begun

Popped to Hereford to have a gander at the Mapa Mundi. It is glorious. I love it and the wonderful, deep, witty, colourful and imaginitive people who created it.

Not everyone who supports Reform is racist. Not ever Reform politician is corrupt. But, bloody hell, they really work hard to keep the stereotype working.

Didn't she attempt to become PM? Didn't she serve under Sunack, Truss and Johnson? How bad is her memory?

For the first time in nearly 20 years we have no cats in the house. Our wonderful, neurotic, beautiful Eddie died this morning and the house is utterly bereft.
Eddie snuggled between me amd the arm of the sofa. Happily purring.

I made this recently. Different Lamb, of course. This one's from a Mervyn Peake short story. Still, all Lamb's should flock together...

The Lamb is blind and has his crown of weasel bones.

Started a model of the Lamb from Mervyn Peake's Boy in Darkness. I think I have got the quiet malevolence sorted. #gormenghast

A sausage roll filled with pork, spices, hazelnuts, walnuts, dates and sultanas, slowly cooling. Tonight's dinner with chips and coleslaw. Fantastic.

This is Farage talking at the Heartland Institute lunch at Davos. The institute that denies climate change, the dangers of smoking and wants the NHS privatised. Who is the lady in red??? Why, it's lettuce-Liz Truss.

Of all the strange medieval things I have made...heads with feet, ice-skating birds of bad omen...this little beast is, by far, the strangest.
A rat like animal with pendulous breasts and no fore legs coming out of a copper cauldron with chicken feet. The rat is wearing a red mask.

Keith Healing @keithhea.bsky.social · 14/12/2025
Latest sculpture in progress is based on a bit of medieval marginalia. A (possible) rat in a cauldron with chicken legs and large breasts. It will also be wearing a mask. No...I have no idea...maybe Dr Eleanor Janega @goingmedieval.bsky.social can shed some light?

So, not only d9es Corbyn and Sultana's party have a terrible name they are using Gen AI to do their artwork. How pro-worker is that?

Lovely. I have recently started sculpting. Been working on Mr Flay from Titus Groan.

This pic demonstrates everything wrong with Trump. Someone has collapsed. Someone is in need, and he stands, deliberately oblivious. No concern, not a flicker of human emotion. He is just waiting for things to focus back on him. Inhuman.
Trump stands deliberately oblivious while people attend to an unwell man behind him. He waits for the attention to return to him.
